Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND AIMS This study aimed to evaluate the relative dentin abrasivity of whitening toothpastes containing acids using the Radioactive Dentin Abrasivity - Profilometry Equivalent (RDA-PE). METHODS A total of 100 bovine dentin specimens were prepared and assigned to the following groups (n = 10): 5 hydrogen peroxide (HP) whitening toothpastes (WTH1-WTH5) with or without acid (citric acid, ethylenedinitrilotetraacetic acid disodium, and phosphoric acid), 2 whitening toothpastes with silica and containing citric or phosphoric acid (WTS1 and WTS2), one conventional toothpaste (CT), and 2 reference slurries (RS). All specimens were brushed for 4,000 or 10,000 strokes using toothbrush and toothbrushing machine. The average dentin depth was measured using a noncontact profilometery, and the RDA-PE value was calculated based on the RS. The pH of the solution, average particle size, particle content, and particle hardness were measured. The RDA-PE data were analysed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's test, and the effects of the 4 measured factors on RDA-PE were investigated via multiple regression analysis. RESULTS The RDA-PE values of the HP whitening toothpastes (mean value: 19-46) were significantly lower, whereas those of the silica whitening toothpastes (80 or 111) were similar to those of the RS after 4,000 strokes (100). The RDA-PE values of all whitening toothpastes were significantly lower than the RS values after 10,000 strokes (242). The HP whitening toothpastes were slightly acidic (pH ≤6) compared to the other solutions. The HP (2.9%-3.7%) and silica (8.9% or 9.9%) whitening toothpastes had significantly lower particle content than RS (16.6%). The particle content significantly influenced the RDA-PE values by multiple regression results. CONCLUSIONS The RDA-PE values of whitening toothpastes varied. The particle content in the solution was a key factor affecting the RDA-PE value. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Whitening toothpastes containing acids did not cause significant dentin abrasion.

Effects of minimally invasive endodontic access cavity in molar teeth on polymerization, porosity and fracture resistance. Sci Rep 2024; 14:21635. [PMID: 39285200 PMCID: PMC11405530 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-72643-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 09/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Minimally invasive access cavities have been proposed in the last decade to reduce tooth tissue loss during endodontic treatment and mitigate compromised fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth. Fracture resistance of molars with different types of access cavity design may be affected by restorative materials and aging. Insufficient literature data exist on the effect of cavity design and type of restorative materials on restorative aspects such as material adaptation or photo-polymerization in restricted access cavities. This study analyses quality of polymerization, material adaptation and fracture resistance of molars with different types of access cavities restored with glass-ionomer, high-viscosity fiber-reinforced bulk-fill and nanofilled resin composite. Plastic molar teeth with truss (TREC) and traditional endodontic access cavity (TEC) were restored with nanofilled composite (Filtek Supreme), glass-ionomer Fuji IX and Filtek or fiber-reinforced everX Posterior and Filtek. Porosity was determined using microcomputer tomography and the degree of conversion of resin-based materals using micro-Raman spectroscopy. Human molars prepared and restored in the same way were used for fracture resistance testing at baseline and after thermocycling. The results demonstrate that high-viscosity fiber-reinforced composite was difficult to adapt in TREC cavity leading to greater porosity than Filtek or Fuji. TREC design did not affect composite polymerization and led to higher fracture resistance of restored molars compared to TEC but also more unrestorable fractures.

Effect of Acetylsalicylic Acid on Biological Properties of Novel Cement Based on Calcium Phosphate Doped with Ions of Strontium, Copper, and Zinc. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7940. [PMID: 39063181 PMCID: PMC11276672 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25147940] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2024] [Revised: 07/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the biological properties of newly synthesized cements based on calcium phosphate with a commercially used cement, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Strontium (Sr)-, Copper (Cu)-, and Zinc (Zn)-doped hydroxyapatite (miHAp) powder was obtained through hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX). Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) was produced by mixing miHAp powder with a 20 wt.% citric acid solution, followed by the assessment of its compressive strength, setting time, and in vitro bioactivity. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) was added to the CPC, resulting in CPCA. Biological tests were conducted on CPC, CPCA, and MTA. The biocompatibility of the cement extracts was evaluated in vitro using human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and in vivo using a zebrafish model. Antibiofilm and antimicrobial effect (quantified by CFUs/mL) were assessed against Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus rhamnosus. None of the tested materials showed toxicity, while CPCA even increased hDPSCs proliferation. CPCA showed a better safety profile than MTA and CPC, and no toxic or immunomodulatory effects on the zebrafish model. CPCA exhibited similar antibiofilm effects against S. mutans and L. rhamnosus to MTA.

Preheating and "snow-plow" composite application technique affect double bond conversion but not bond strength to dentine. J ESTHET RESTOR DENT 2024; 36:951-961. [PMID: 38497672 DOI: 10.1111/jerd.13218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure degree of conversion (DC) of a flowable composite, microtensile bond strength (MTBS) to dentine in the snow-plow technique with/without preheating and temperature in the preheated composite. MATERIALS AND METHODS For DC, snow-plow specimens of Filtek Ultimate Flowable (Flow) and Filtek Bulk Fill (Bulk) (3M) were prepared by light-curing composites simultaneously in standardized molds while in control groups light-curing was separate. DC of Flow was measured using micro-Raman spectroscopy. For MTBS, specimens were prepared on dentine of human extracted molars by simultaneous (snow-plow) or separate (control) light-curing. MTBS was measured using a universal testing machine after 24 h and 6 months. Data were analyzed using ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc (α = 0.05). RESULTS Increased curing time significantly increased DC in snow-plow from 13.4% ± 11.6% (10 s) to 31.8% ± 4.4% (40 s) albeit significantly lower than controls (p < 0.05). Preheated Bulk improved conversion in snow-plow (44.3% ± 1.7%) and control (50.5% ± 2.6%) (p < 0.05). No significant differences occurred in MTBS between groups (p > 0.05). MTBS values ranged between 66.7 ± 8.4 MPa (snow-plow group_21°C_baseline) and 54.1 ± 15.8 MPa (control_21°C_long-term). Temperature in the preheated Bulk dropped to ~38°C after 30 s. CONCLUSIONS Snow-plow technique, irrespective of preheating, resulted in lower DC of Flow than separate light-curing of composite increments. Snow-plow, irrespective of preheating, resulted in similar initial and long-term MTBS to dentine. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Clinicians with preference for flowable composite liners in Class II restorations should be aware that the snow-plow technique of simultaneous light-curing of flowable and bulk-fill composite increments affects monomer-to-polymer conversion, albeit no effect on immediate, and long-term bonding to dentine was detected. Preheating sculptable bulk-fill composite improves conversion of the flowable liner in the snow-plow technique but has no detectable effect on bond strength to dentine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effects of enhanced personal protective equipment (Enhanced_PPE) on student-operator's experience and restorative procedure. METHODS Student-operators (N = 29 Year 3 dental students) performed Class II composite restorations (SimpliShade, Kerr) in typodont upper molars (OneDental) equipped with N95 respirators, full-face shields, disposable headwear and gowns (Enhanced_PPE) or surgical masks, protective glasses/goggles and non-disposable gowns (Standard_PPE) 2 weeks later. Cavity dimensions were measured on cone beam computed tomography images. The quality of composite restorations was assessed using selected FDI criteria and Vickers hardness. A questionnaire assessed the operators' discomfort, anxiety, confidence, ability to perform, and procedure outcome. Data were analyzed using paired t-test and McNemar test (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS Student-operators experienced greater discomfort and anxiety, reduced confidence and ability to perform, and rated the procedure as less satisfactory with Enhanced_PPE (p < 0.05). Differences in proximal box width were marginally significant (Enhanced_PPE 1.8 ± 0.4 mm, Standard_PPE 1.6 ± 0.3 mm) (p = 0.047). Other cavity dimensions were similar between groups (p > 0.05) as were restorations regarding surface luster, anatomical form, marginal adaptation, proximal contour, and contact (p > 0.05). There were no differences in the hardness of composite restorations (top p = 0.349, bottom p = 0.334). CONCLUSIONS Enhanced_PPE led to student-operator discomfort, anxiety, and reduced confidence, but did not impact the quality of Class II preparation and composite restorations versus Standard_PPE.

Hydroxyapatite-based dental inserts: Microstructure, mechanical properties, bonding efficiency and fracture resistance of molars with occlusal restorations. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2024; 112:e35331. [PMID: 37792306 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to (1) comparatively analyze properties of Sr- and Mg-substituted hydroxyapatite (HAP)-based dental inserts; (2) evaluate insert bonding to restorative materials, and (3) evaluate the effect of doped HAP inserts on fracture resistance (FR) of human molars with large occlusal restorations. By ion-doping with Sr or Mg, 3 insert types were obtained and characterized using XRD, SEM, Vickers hardness and fracture toughness. Shear bond strength (SBS) was determined between acid etched or unetched inserts and following materials: Maxcem cement (Kerr); Filtek Z250 (3M) bonded with Single Bond Universal (SBU; 3M) or Clearfil Universal (Cf; Kuraray). Modified Class I cavities were prepared in 16 intact molars and restored using insert + composite or composite only (control) (n = 8/group). FR of restored molars was determined by static load until fracture upon thermal cycling. Fracture toughness was similar between Sr/Mg-doped inserts (0.94-1.04 MPam-1/2 p = .429). Mg-doped inserts showed greater hardness (range 4.78-5.15 GPa) than Sr6 inserts (3.74 ± 0.31 GPa; p < .05). SBS for SBU and Cf adhesives (range 7.19-15.93 MPa) was higher than for Maxcem (range 3.07-5.95 MPa) (p < .05). There was no significant difference in FR between molars restored with insert-containing and control restorations (3.00 ± 0.30 kN and 3.22 ± 0.42 kN, respectively; p > .05). HAP-based inserts doped with Mg/Sr had different composition and mechanical properties. Adhesive bonding to inserts resulted in greater bond strength than cementation, which may be improved by insert acid-etching. Ion-doped HAP inserts did not affect FR of restored molars. In conclusion, HAP-based dental inserts may potentially replace dentin in large cavities, without affecting fracture resistance of restored teeth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To answer the PICO(S) question: Is there a difference in clinical longevity between direct and indirect resin composite restorations placed on permanent posterior teeth? DATA Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) investigating direct and indirect resin composite restorations in posterior permanent teeth were considered. SOURCES Several electronic databases were searched, with no language or date restrictions. The revised Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias (RoB-2) was used to analyze the studies; meta-analyses were run and the certainty of evidence was assessed by the GRADE tool. A subgroup meta-analysis was performed for resin composite restorations placed on posterior worn dentition. STUDY SELECTION Twenty-three articles were included in qualitative synthesis, while 8 studies were used for meta-analyses. According to the RoB-2 tool, 5 studies were ranked as "low risk", 7 had "some concerns", while 11 papers were rated as "high risk" of bias. There were no statistically significant differences in short-term (p = 0.27; RR=1.54, 95% CI [0.72, 3.33]), medium-term (p = 0.27; RR=1.87, 95% CI [0.61, 5.72]) and long-term longevity (p = 0.86; RR=0.95, 95% CI [0.57, 1.59]). The choice of restorative technique had no influence on short-term survival of resin composite restorations placed on worn dentition (p = 0.13; RR=0.46, 95% CI [0.17, 1.25]). The certainty of evidence was rated as "very low". CONCLUSIONS Direct and indirect resin composite restorations may show similar clinical longevity in posterior region, regardless of the observation period or substrate (wear-affected and non-affected dentition). The very low quality of evidence suggests that more long-term RCTs are needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate CIEDE2000/CIELAB differences in color (ΔE00/ΔEab), and translucency parameter (ΔTP00/ΔTPab), and gloss of gingiva-colored resin-based restorative materials upon staining/aging. Materials and methods Disc-shaped, 10 mm in diameter, and 2-mm-thick samples (n = 5/group) were made from giomer (Beautifil II gingiva), oligomer-based (crea.lign GUM gel), CAD/CAM polymethyl-methacrylate-based (IvoBase CAD), PMMA-based (ProBase Hot), and dimethacrylate-based (SR Nexco Paste Gingiva). Color and gloss were recording using a benchtop spectrophotometer and gloss meter, respectively, at baseline (T0), and upon staining in coffee or red wine for 60 (T1) and 120 h (T2), or artificial aging of 150 kJ/m2 (T1) and 300 kJ/m2 (T2). Three-way analysis of variance (materials x staining conditions x time intervals), Tukey’s test (α = 0.05), and Pearson’s correlation test were used in analytical statistics. Results CIEDE2000 color differences ranged from 1.0 to 4.4 (coffee), 1.5 to 5.3 (wine), and 0.9 to 2.0 after artificial aging, with ΔE00 values being significantly higher for Beautifil than other materials (p < 0.05). ΔTP00 values ranged from 0.2 to 0.7 and were statistically higher upon staining in wine compared to artificial aging (p < 0.05). Gloss values at T0 were 76.7–87.0. Beautifil exhibited the lowest gloss retention (50.8–60.2%) after staining, compared to > 90% of other materials (p < 0.05). ΔE00/ΔEab and ΔTP00/ΔTPab were positively correlated (p < 0.0001). Conclusions Color, translucency, and gloss changes of gingiva-colored restorative materials were material- and staining/aging-dependent. Generally, wine caused greatest changes in color (with IvoBase CAD being the most color stable) and translucency parameter. All materials except Beautifil gingiva II exhibited staining- and aging-dependent gloss retention greater than 90% for all compared time intervals. Clinical relevance Optical properties of resin-based gingiva-colored restorative materials depend on material, staining/aging conditions, and exposure time. Certain materials should be avoided in individuals with high consumption of red wine and coffee.

Abstract
This study investigated differences in colour (ΔE00) and translucency parameter (ΔTP00) of nanofilled/microhybrid composites and a glass-ionomer cement following immersion in bioflavonoid (Citrox)- or chlorhexidine-based mouth rinses. Sixty disc-shaped specimens (N = 5/group) of Filtek Supreme (3M), Gradia Anterior (GC) and Fuji IX (GC) were exposed to Citrox/0.2%CHX (Perio+0.2, Curaprox), Citrox/0.09%CHX (Perio+0.09, Curaprox), 0.2%CHX (Savacol, Colgate-Palmolive) or distilled water by 2-min agitation daily for 28 days in an orbital shaker at 200 rpm at 37 °C. Colour recordings were performed using a clinical spectrophometer to obtain CIELab coordinates. General linear model, ANOVA, Tukey test (α = 0.05) and Pearson correlation test were used to analyse data. ΔE00 ranged between 0.33 (Gradia_Savacol_T28) and 6.35 (Fuji_Savacol_T28) (p < 0.001). ΔTP00 ranged between 0.36 (Fuji_ Perio+0.2) and 1.73 (Fuji_Savacol) (p < 0.05). Savacol resulted in higher ΔE00 of Filtek and Fuji and ΔTP00 of Filtek than Perio+0.09 and Perio+0.2 (p = 0.005). Perio+0.09 and Perio+0.2 resulted in higher ΔE00 at T7 than T28 (p < 0.05). There was no correlation between ΔTP00 and ΔE00 (r = 0.445, p = 0.147). Generally, Perio+0.2 and Perio+0.09 mouth rinses produced similar or lower ΔE00 and ΔTP00 than Savacol. GIC Fuji showed higher ΔE00 and similar or higher ΔTP00 than composites Filtek and Gradia. ΔE00 in all materials decreased in Perio+0.2 and Perio+0.09 over time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effects of non-thermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP) treatment on dentin wetting and adhesive-dentin bond strength. DATA/SOURCES This report followed the PRISMA 2020 statement. Two reviewers conducted literature search of MEDLINE, Web of Science and Scopus databases up to the end of November 2020. Included in vitro studies compared the effect of NTAP on treated dentin of non-carious, intact, extracted human third molar teeth with different control groups. Studies with no adequate methods, missing data, lack of control group, or those using animal teeth were excluded. The random effects model was used to summarize the treatment effect with standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% CI. Risk of bias was assessed using the custom Cochrane Collaboration's tool. STUDY SELECTION/RESULTS Seventeen studies met inclusion criteria. The effects on dentin wetting were reported in favor of NTAP (SMD -5.38; 95% CI [-6.97, -3.78]; p<0.00001; I2=81%). Regarding adhesive-dentin bond strength, statistically significant differences between the NTAP and control group were in favor of NTAP in the short-term (SMD 1.92; 95%CI [1.35, 2.50]; p<0.00001; I2=97%), and long-term (SMD 3.28; 95%CI [2.46, 4.09]; p<0.00001; I2=97%). A limitation of meta-analysis is moderate heterogeneity caused by methodological differences and lack of data, which was evaluated through risk of bias and sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS NTAP substantially improves dentin wetting and adhesive-dentin bond strength with 30 seconds exposure time and up to 10 mm tip-to-surface distances being sufficient for positive NTAP effects on bonding efficiency. FUNDING ON172207 and III41008 from the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, Republic of Serbia. NP is funded by MESTD grant number 451-03-68/2020-14/200024. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE This systematic review and meta-analysis substantiate potential applicability of NTAP treatment of dentin in improving adhesive bonding clinically. Further research should be based on the optimized parameters such as time and distance with additional refinement of NTAP power.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare color changes, surface roughness and gloss of a microhybrid and nanohybrid composite whitened in a simulated in-office or at-home procedure using 40% hydrogen peroxide or 16% carbamide peroxide, respectively. CIELab coordinates were measured before, during and after treatment using VITA EasyShade V (VITA) and ∆E00 calculated. Surface roughness was measured using a surface roughness tester (SJ210; Mitutoyo). Gloss was measured using a gloss checker (IG-331; Horiba). At-home whitening resulted in ∆E00 of 1.23±0.49 (microhybrid) and 1.01±0.76 (nanohybrid). In-office exposure resulted in ∆E00 of 0.69±0.38 (microhybrid) and 0.72±0.50 (nanohybrid). There were no significant differences in ∆E00, surface roughness and gloss between whitening protocols (p>0.05). Color changes of a microhybrid and nanohybrid composite following simulated in-office or at-home whitening reached CIEDE2000 50:50% perceptibility but not acceptability threshold. Surface roughness and gloss of the microhybrid and nanohybrid composite were not affected by whitening.

[PMID: 33179862 DOI: 10.1111/jerd.12679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 10/22/2020] [Accepted: 10/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the effects of factors 'composite,' 'medium,' and 'time' on color, translucency, and sorption/solubility of sculptable universal composites for enamel layering upon immersion in colored beverages. MATERIALS AND METHODS Disk-shaped specimens, 10 mm in diameter and 2 mm thick (n = 5/group), of ultrafine, hybrid composite Essentia (GC), microhybrid Gaenial Anterior (GC), nanofilled Filtek Ultimate Enamel and Body ( 3M ESPE) were immersed in red wine, coffee, or distilled water for 15 days. CIELab color coordinates were measured and CIEDE2000 (∆E00 ) and Translucency Parameter differences (∆TP00 ) were calculated. Sorption and solubility were determined according to ISO 4049:2009. Data were analyzed using the analyses of variance and Tukey's post-hoc test (α = 0.05). RESULTS Essentia and Gaenial exhibited the lowest and the highest staining-dependent color differences, with mean ∆E00 range of 1.7-6.1 and 5.1-11.3, respectively (p < 0.05). ∆TP00 was more pronounced in wine than in coffee (p < 0.05). Sorption and solubility varied between 9.8 and 15.3 μg/mm3 and -1.6 and -5.4 μg/mm3 , respectively, with positive correlation between ∆TP00 and sorption (p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Total color and translucency differences of sculptable composites for enamel layering were material-, time- and medium-dependent. Translucency differences positively correlated with sorption. Overall, the ultrafine, hybrid composite exhibited the best results in terms of color stability, sorption and solubility. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Clinicians should be aware of differences in color stability of sculptable composites for enamel layering as these are directly exposed to discoloration in the oral environment and are directly related to patients' long-term satisfaction and restoration longevity. Ultrafine, hybrid composite may be preferred due to better color stability, lower sorption and solubility compared to nanofilled and microhybrid composites evaluated in this study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Open pores between endodontic sealer and root canal walls present potential niches for bacterial growth and migration pathways. The aim was to assess the internal and external porosity of calcium silicate-based sealers and to ascertain the long-term effect of storage in simulated body fluid on sealer porosity. METHODS Sixteen single-rooted teeth were filled with gutta-percha and 1 of 4 root canal sealers: BioRoot RCS, EndoSequence BC, MTA Fillapex, or AH Plus. Obturated roots, stored in Hank's balanced salt solution, were scanned after 7 days and after 6 months by using micro-computed tomography at an isotropic resolution of 9.9 μm. Total, open, and closed porosity were calculated in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds. Data were statistically analyzed by using general linear model and paired t test (α = 0.05). RESULTS Significantly higher percentage of open than closed porosity was found in all groups. Initially, significantly greater open and total porosity were found for MTA Fillapex than for AH Plus. After 6 months, the percentage of open and total porosity increased in BioRoot RCS and MTA Fillapex and decreased in AH Plus and EndoSequence BC. Both initially and after storage, coronal region of all sealers had significantly greater total porosity than middle and apical regions, which were comparable. CONCLUSIONS None of the root fillings were void-free, with predominant open porosity persisting after long-term storage.

Abstract
The application of sintered calcium phosphate dental inserts in the central part of tooth cavities can reduce amount of embedded dental composite and polymerization shrinkage of final dental fillings. The aim of this study was to analyze comparatively physico-chemical and mechanical properties of dental inserts and shear bond strength (SBS) between three dissimilar hydroxyapatite-based dental inserts and different restorative materials, after application of different clinical protocols. Starting from two different hydroxyapatite nano powders and nanostructured stabilized zirconia (YSZ), monophasic two-step sintered dense HAp inserts (TSSHAp), biphasic single-step sintered controlled porous inserts (HAp/TCp), and single-step sintered reinforced HAp/YSZ inserts were processed and characterized. Obvious differences in the microstructure of inserts surface were visualized after etching with 37% phosphoric acid. Fracture toughness of sintered inserts was ranged between 1.01 and 1.85 MPam1/2 (maximum value in the case of HAp/YSZ), while hardness values were in the range of 3.71-5.22 GPa (maximum value in the case of TSSHAp). Acid etching before application improved SBS between inserts and Maxcem compared to direct cement application. TSSHAp and HAP/TCp inserts showed comparable and relatively high SBS values, certainly higher compared to HAp/YSZ inserts. Slightly higher SBS values were measured in the case of TSSHAp insert group, and the highest mean SBS value of 18.51 MPa was determined between TSSHAp inserts and Filtek Z250_SBU following the "self-etch" protocol.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine color changes in bulk-fill composite and universal composite restorations with dissimilar dentin replacement materials in extracted teeth after staining in red wine. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cylindrical, 4 mm deep, class I cavities were prepared in 140 human molars. Bottom 2 mm was restored with Biodentine (Septodont), everX posterior (GC) or experimental HAP inserts. Each dentin replacement material was covered with a 2-mm layer of a universal composite Filtek Z250 or Z550 (3M ESPE) or Gradia Posterior (GC). Groups combining top composite layer and the underlying dentin replacement were designated as "composite_dentin replacement." Filtek Bulk Fill (3M ESPE) and Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill (Ivoclar Vivadent) were placed as a single 4-mm layer. Color measurements were performed using Vita Easyshade 4.0 (Vita Zahnfabrik) initially and after 48-hours storage in red wine at 37°C. RESULTS Color differences (ΔEoo ) ranged between 2.1 ± 0.7 (Z250_HAP) and 7.8 ± 1.1 (Z550_everX). EverX resulted in higher ΔEoo of the overlying composite than HAP (P < .001) and Biodentine (P = .006). Generally, ΔEoo was affected more by decreasing lightness (ΔL') than changes in chroma (ΔC'). CONCLUSIONS EverX resulted in higher ΔEoo of the restoration than Biodentine and experimental HAP after staining in red wine. No significant differences in ΔEoo may be expected in different composites with the same underlying dentin replacement material. The same was generally true for bulk-fill and universal composites. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Similar extent of color changes may be expected in bulk-fill and universal composites. Highly translucent everX might exhibit greater color differences irrespective of the capping composite than non-translucent materials. Clinicians have a wider choice of composite materials to cover a particular dentin replacement material, for example, everX or Biodentine, as similar color differences may be expected in various overlying composite brands.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine and correlate the degree of conversion (DC) with Vickers hardness (VH) and translucency parameter (TP) with the depth of cure (DoC) of five bulk-fill composites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six specimens per group, consisting of Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill ("TEC Bulk," Ivoclar Vivadent), SonicFill (Kerr), SDR Smart Dentin Replacement ("SDR," Dentsply), Xenius base ("Xenius," StickTech; commercialized as EverX Posterior, GC), Filtek Bulk Fill flowable ("Filtek Bulk," 3M ESPE), and Tetric EvoCeram ("TEC," control), were prepared for DC and VH: two 2-mm-thick layers, each light-cured for 10 s; one 4-mm bulk-fill, light-cured for 10 or 20 s; and one 6-mm bulk-fill, cured for 20 s. DC was measured using a Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer, VH using a Vickers hardness tester. DoC and TP were measured using an acetone-shaking test and a spectrophotometer, respectively. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Pearson's correlation (α = 0.05). RESULTS DC and VH ranged between 40-70 % and 30-80 VHN, respectively. TEC Bulk, Xenius, and SonicFill, bulk-filled as 4-mm-thick specimens, showed bottom-to-top hardness ratios above 80 % after 20 s curing. A positive linear correlation was found for bottom DC and VH. An average DC ratio of 0.9 corresponded to a bottom-to-top VH ratio of 0.8. CONCLUSIONS Sculptable bulk-fills require 20 s, whereas 10 s curing time was sufficient for flowable bulk-fills using a high-intensity LED unit. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Clinicians should be aware that longer curing times may be required for sculptable than flowable bulk-fill composites in order to achieve optimal curing characteristics.

Abstract
This study correlated the refractive indices (RIs) of unfilled resin mixtures and resin-based composites (RBCs) with color and translucency of conventional and low-shrinkage RBCs. Unfilled resin mixtures based on different ratios of conventional monomers Bisphenol A-glycidyl-methacrylate (BisGMA)/triethyleneglycol-dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) and urethane-dimethacrylate (UDMA)/TEGDMA and a low-shrinkage monomer FIT-852 (FIT, Esstech Inc.)/TEGDMA were used to prepare model RBCs, containing 30 wt % of the organic matrix and 70 wt % of silanated barium-glass fillers (n = 1.553, Esstech Inc.). The RIs of resins were measured on an ABBE refractometer, those of cured RBCs using the Becke-line method in immersion oils. Color and translucency were determined using an AvaSpec-2048 (Avantes BV) spectrometer. The RIs of unfilled resin mixtures decreased with increasing amounts of TEGDMA. Cured RBCs had higher RIs than their respective resin mixtures. BisGMA-based composites were more translucent with significantly lower L* values than FIT- and UDMA-based RBCs. The RIs of unfilled resins positively correlated with cured RBCs (p = 0.001), as did the RIs with translucency (p = 0.001) and color (p = 0.008). Resin mixtures and corresponding RBCs based on UDMA and its modified low-shrinkage version, FIT, showed similar optical properties. The RIs of unfilled resins appeared to be good predictors of the RIs of cured RBCs. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part B: Appl Biomater, 105B: 7-13, 2017.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the accuracy of three electronic apex locators (EALs), Raypex 5, Apex NRG and ProPex II, in locating the apical foramen (AF) in vivo. Thirty multi-rooted teeth were included in the study. Distances from the file tip to the radiographic apex from the buccal (R1) and mesial (R2) aspect were measured after extraction. The distance from the file tip to the AF (L) was measured microscopically. Raypex 5, Apex NRG and ProPex II were accurate to within ± 0.5 mm in 84.6%, 78.6% and 66.7% of cases, respectively. R1, R2 and L measurements between the EALs were not statistically different (P > 0.05). R1 and L correlated positively (r(2) = 0.817; P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in all measurements between vital and non-vital root canals (P > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the EALs. There was a positive correlation between electronic and radiographic measurements when locating the AF.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Objectives
The purpose of this study was to evaluate how evaporation affects the shelf life of a one-bottle universal adhesive.
Methods
Three different versions of Scotchbond Universal (SBU, 3M ESPE, Seefeld, Germany) were prepared using a weight-loss technique. SBU0 was left open to the air until maximal weight loss was obtained, whereas SBU50 was left open until 50% of evaporation occurred. In contrast, SBU100 was kept closed and was assumed to contain the maximum concentration of all ingredients. The degree of conversion (DC) was determined by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on different substrates (on dentin or glass plate and mixed with dentin powder); ultimate microtensile strength and microtensile bond strength to dentin were measured as well.
Results
DC of the 100% solvent-containing adhesive (SBU100) was higher than that of the 50% (SBU50) and 0% (SBU0) solvent-containing adhesives for all substrates. DC of the adhesive applied onto glass and dehydrated dentin was higher than that applied onto dentin. Even though the ultimate microtensile strength of SBU0 was much higher than that of SBU50 and SBU100, its bond strength to dentin was significantly lower.
Conclusions
Evaporation of adhesive ingredients may jeopardize the shelf life of a one-bottle universal system by reducing the degree of conversion and impairing bond strength. However, negative effects only became evident after more than 50% evaporation.
