Book Effects of Fluoride Varnish Application and Phosphate Buffered Saline Solution with Or Without Demineralizing Conditions Prior to Bracket Bonding on Subsequent Enamel bracket Shear Bond Strength

Download or read book Effects of Fluoride Varnish Application and Phosphate Buffered Saline Solution with Or Without Demineralizing Conditions Prior to Bracket Bonding on Subsequent Enamel bracket Shear Bond Strength written by Burt Kawamoto and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the effect of sodium fluoride varnish (V) and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution with or without demineralization (DM) prior to bracket bonding on subsequent enamel-bracket shear bond strength (SBS). Sixty maxillary third molars were used for the testing procedures after the roots were embedded in acrylic resin. Specimen were randomly assigned to the following four groups: 1) fluoride varnish-PBS only; 2) fluoride varnish-PBS with demineralization; 3) no fluoride varnish-PBS only; 4) no fluoride varnish-PBS with demineralization. Immediately after varnish or no varnish application, all teeth were placed in PBS for four hours to simulate a time of no food or beverage consumption according to the manufacturer’s protocols. All teeth were then brushed to simulate natural brushing removal. Teeth were then placed in their respective solutions of PBS only or PBS+DM for 7 days, and stored in an incubator at 37°C and subjected to a shaker set at 15 rpm to simulate oral circulation. A universal ten Cate demineralization solution was used. PBS was changed every day and DM three times daily. After 7 days, metal maxillary premolar brackets were bonded using a primer and resin adhesive to the mesial buccal surface of the molars. Following a 24-hour dark cure, SBS was determined with a universal mechanical tester, and adhesive remnant index (ARI) values were then assigned. There was a significantly (p=0.001) greater SBS with varnish application as compared to no varnish with bracketed teeth stored in the PBS+DM. An effect size of 0.372 indicates that approximately 37% of the SBS difference in the PBS+DM group can be attributed to varnish application. There were no significant differences in ARI results based on varnish application or storage medium. Overall results suggest that metal brackets bonded to teeth treated with fluoride varnish and stored in a medium of PBS+DM exhibited a statistically higher SBS, as compared to teeth with no fluoride varnish application.

Book The Effects of a Fluoride Releasing Orthodontic Primer on Demineralization Around Brackets

Download or read book The Effects of a Fluoride Releasing Orthodontic Primer on Demineralization Around Brackets written by Daniel Ryan Pennella and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a fluoride releasing orthodontic primer on demineralization adjacent to brackets. Twenty-two patients were recruited for this study. One premolar was randomly chosen as the experimental tooth, the contralateral tooth was the control. Teeth were visually analyzed for white spot lesions (WSLs). Knoop microhardness was used to determine hardness. Visual examination results showed no significant difference in the number of WSLs observed between Opal Seal and Transbond XT over the duration of this study. Solid conclusions could not be drawn from the results of microhardness testing. Therefore, it cannot be concluded that there is a difference in enamel hardness between Opal Seal and Transbond XT. However, prior to 90 days, teeth showed a significant difference in WSLs. Suggesting a protective effect of Opal Seal that diminished with time. Future studies are necessary to determine the clinical performance of this product.

Book A Clinical Comparison of Decalcification Following Orthodontic Treatment Using Composite Resin and Reinforced Modified Glass Ionomer Cements

Download or read book A Clinical Comparison of Decalcification Following Orthodontic Treatment Using Composite Resin and Reinforced Modified Glass Ionomer Cements written by Jennifer L. Butterfoss and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background and significance. Even with the advent of direct bonding, decalcification remains a problem in orthodontics today. Glass ionomer cements have been used in dentistry for fluoride release for years and may have beneficial use in orthodontics to reduce decalcification. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the incidence in decalcification between orthodontic patients bonded with either composite resin or resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) cements. Varying levels of hygiene and treatment time were also evaluated. Methods. Intraoral pre-treatment and post-treatment photographs from patients bonded with either RMGI or composite resin were evaluated for changes in decalcification. Patients were treated by the same practitioner and the data was gathered retrospectively. Results. Patients bonded with glass ionomer cement demonstrated significantly less decalcification than those bonded with composite resin. Treatment time and hygiene were not significant. Conclusions. Glass ionomer cements used for direct bonding reduce decalcification in orthodontic patients on a fluoride protocol.

Book The Effect of Light Cured Fluoride Varnish to Remineralize White Spot Lesions and Change the Salivary Microbiome

Download or read book The Effect of Light Cured Fluoride Varnish to Remineralize White Spot Lesions and Change the Salivary Microbiome written by Joseph Michael Mullen and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orthodontic treatment impedes the oral hygiene of patients, leading to plaque accumulation and the development of white spot lesions (WSL), which are visible areas of demineralized enamel. Our study aims to investigate the efficacy of different commercially available fluoride varnishes to treat these white spot lesions after the completion of orthodontic treatment and evaluate their effect on the oral microbiome. The present pilot study used a split-mouth design, with each of the eight subjects receiving different treatment on the left and right sides of their mouth. Subjects were assigned to one of three groups using stratified permuted block randomization, with each group receiving two of the following three options: placebo varnish (petroleum jelly), 5% sodium fluoride varnish (Acclean, Henry Schein), and a resin-modified glass ionomer light-cured fluoride varnish (Vanish XT Extended Contact Varnish, 3M). There are four total visits for this study: T1 (baseline taken within one month of braces removal), T2 (day 30), T3 (day 90), and T4 (day 180). Several series of photographs were taken at each visit to assess their oral health and the appearance of the WSL. Stimulated saliva was collected, and the severity of the WSL was assessed using laser fluorescence (DIAGNOdent pen, Kavo), after which the varnishes were applied according to their group allocation. Clinical photographs were assessed by a trained and blinded scorer using the Turesky-modified Quigley Hein Plaque Index (TQHPI) and the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS). These index measurements, along with the DIAGNOdent scores, were used to assess the efficacy of the different interventions at remineralizing WSLs. Salivary loads of total bacteria, Candida albicans, and Streptococcus mutans were determined by plating saliva samples on agar plates containing Brain Heart Infusion (BHI), Sabouraud Dextrose (SAB), and Mitis Salivarius-Bacitracin (MSB) respectively. Although the small sample size of this pilot study made it difficult to achieve statistical significance, several notable trends were identified. Average TQHPI levels stayed relatively stable, with modest decreases seen in the placebo and light-cured fluoride varnish (LCFV) groups. DIAGNOdent scores decreased in all groups, with the 5% varnish group showing a significant decrease from T1-T3 and the LCFV showing the greatest percent change from T1-T4. ICDAS scores increased in the 5% and placebo groups and decreased in the LCFV group. CFUs representing total bacterial load, S. mutans, and C. albicans all decreased by an average of 60.9 - 99.9 percent, showing decreased oral colonization in the 6 months after completion of orthodontic treatment. These preliminary trends need to be verified in future studies that include more subjects to reach statistical significance.

Book Effect of Fluoride Varnish  duraphat  on Cariogenic Bacterial Levels in Dental Plaque Adjacent to Orthodontic Brackets

Download or read book Effect of Fluoride Varnish duraphat on Cariogenic Bacterial Levels in Dental Plaque Adjacent to Orthodontic Brackets written by Sunita S. Chandiramani and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objective: To quantify the effect of fluoride containing varnish on the relative proportions of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguis, Streptococcus mitis, Lactobacillus sp. to total bacterial flora in the dental plaque. Subject and methods: 22 orthodontic patients were selected. The study group received an application of Duraphat varnish. Plaque samples were collected at baseline and 30 and 60 days after fluoride varnish application. The total cultivable microflora were counted on blood agar. Mitis-Salivarius agar served to enumerate different oral streptococci and, Rogosa SL agar plates to count lactobacilli. Results: S. mutans counts were statistically lower in the control group than in the experimental groups. Conclusion: Fluoride varnish helps to reduce the bacterial flora in plaque immediately after application but the long-term cariostatic effect of fluoride varnish probably is caused by the remineralization of early carious lesions.
