Marginal leakage with different composite restorative materials in vitro. Effect of cavity design.

In this preliminary study the degree of marginal leakage was assessed for different cavity designs using both ultra violet-curing and self-curing composite restorative materials and sealants. Butt joint restorations placed in etched and sealant primed cavities failed to prevent leakage. Both saucer-shaped and funnel-shaped cavities and cavities with rounded margins were able to prevent leakage when the restorations were bonded to etched and sealant primed peripheral enamel. Further, less than 1 mm of gingival enamel available for bonding seemed to be sufficient in most instances to prevent leakage.

Effect of composite resin restorations in monkeys teeth with experimentally induced pulpitis.

The short- and long-term pulpal reactions to composite resin restorations using differenct cavity lining materials have been assessed in monkey teeth with experimentally induced pulpitis. The inflammation was induced by filling cavities with soft human carious dentin and amalgam for 1 week. Healing of the inflammation and formation of reparative dentin was generally found independent of the lining materials used. The long-term response to cavities restored with carious dentin and amalgam was also healing of the primarily induced pulpal inflammation in most instances.

Pulpal reactions to surface-sealed silicate cement and composite resin restorations.

The effect of surface sealing and presence of bacteria in connection with pulpal response to silicate cement and composite resin restorations was tested in monkey teeth. Surface-sealing of silicates reduced the pulpal reactions to this material, whereas no such effect was observed when composites were sealed. Bacteria regularly occurred on the cavity walls except underneath zinc oxide/eugenol (ZOE) fillings and when silicates were sealed with ZOE. The frequency of bacteria was higher in teeth with unacceptable pulpal responses (44 of 49) than in teeth with acceptable reactions (48 of 79).

Permeability and fluoride release of lining materials containing amine fluorides.

The addition of amine fluorides to a copal recin (Copalite) and a chlorine caoutchouc varnish (Pergut S-40) has been studied. The permeability of Copalite films was only slightly increased whereas the excellent film-forming qualities of Pergut S-40 were destroyed by the addition of fluorides. A high fluoride release was found initially from test films of the materials but within 2-3 weeks a decrease to very low fluoride levels was observed.

Marginal leakage with different composite restorative materials: effect of restorative techniques.

The degrees of marginal leakage was tested for different restorative techniques with use of both ultraviolet-polymerized and cold-curing resins. All the materials tested showed severe marginal leakage when applied as conventional butt joint restorations. When the restorations were extended onto peripheral etched enamel, either with or without a sealant-primed etched surface, marginal leakage was prevented in most instances with both the cold-curing and ultraviolet-polymerized materials. However, the ultraviolet-polymerized sealant was more effective in preventing marginal leakage than the cold-curing sealants when applied as a covering over the restorations and extended onto the peripheral etched enamel.

The effect of a chlorhexidine-containing gel on oral cleanliness and gingival health in young adults.

Students at a vocational school participated in a double-blind, cross-over study to test the effect of brushing with a 1% chlorhexidine-containing gel once a day. In the control period, a placebo gel was used. Each treatment period lasted for 4 weeks. This was subsequently followed by 4 weeks of ordinary toothbrushing. Any toothbrushing additional to the therapeutic brushing was performed with a standard commercial dentifrice without abrasives. In addition to the treatment groups, containing a total of 24 subjects, another group of 12 subjects received standardized oral hygiene instruction. Oral hygiene and gingival condition were assessed in all groups throughout the study. The chlorhexidine-containing gel seemed to have no effect on gingivitis and only a slight inhibitory effect on plaque formation. Furthermore, an increase in the degree and frequency of staining of the tooth surfaces related to the use of active gel were observed.

Effect of 2-years' use of chlorhexidine-containing dentifrices on plaque, gingivitis, and caries.

Chlorhexidine digluconate in 0.1% and 0.4% concentrations was added to dentifrices to evaluate its effect on plaque formation, gingival conditions and caries in 73 dental students over a 2-year period. No differences were found in the Pl I and the G I indices between the active and the placebo dentifrices, but a possible effect on caries was demonstrated. Discolorations of anterior teeth and fillings were the only side effects observed.
