Shear bond strengths of two resin-modified glass ionomer cements to porcelain.

Shear bond strength of a composite resin adhesive (Concise) and two resin-modified glass ionomer cements (Fuji Ortho LC and Geristore) bonded to porcelain surface was tested. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to 120 porcelain disks (Finesse) etched with 9% HF. Samples were divided into six groups: (1) Concise, (2) Concise/silane, (3) Geristore, (4) Geristore/silane, (5) Fuji, (6) Fuji/silane. No statistical difference in mean shear bond strength was found between silanated Concise (15.8 MPa), Geristore (19.4 MPa), and Fuji (18.5 MPa) groups, which were significantly higher than nonsilanated groups. Porcelain fracture was observed in all silanated groups and nonsilanated Geristore group. We conclude that (1) silane increases bond strength to porcelain significantly for composite resin and resin-modified glass ionomer cement, (2) Concise, Geristore, and Fuji Ortho LC provide comparable shear bond strength to porcelain.

Stereotactic core breast biopsy. An alternative.

Stereotactic core breast biopsy provides diagnostic accuracy equal to open surgical biopsy and is more comfortable and more cost effective than open surgical biopsy. A series of 75 patients is presented, of which 15 (20%) had positive findings, including 11 cancers and 4 atypical hyperplasias. The authors discuss indications, methods, patient preparation and results relating to this series of patients, including initial use of lateral compression for stereotactic core biopsies. This procedure promises to become the procedure of choice for nonpalpable, mammographically detected, indeterminate lesions of the breast and is likely to alter the conventional roles for the surgeon and radiologist regarding breast biopsy.
