Download or read book Effectiveness of Fluoride Containing Bonding Resins in Preventing Demineralization of Enamel During Orthodontic Treatment written by Robin J. Choi and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Although orthodontics can correct a variety of dental and skeletal malocclusions, research has shown an increased risk of enamel demineralization leading to white spot lesions (WSLs). The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of Pro Seal and Opal Seal, two fluoridated bonding agents, to Assure, a nonfluoridated bonding agent, in preventing demineralization during orthodontic treatment. Methods: 26 patients beginning comprehensive orthodontic treatment were divided into 3 groups. 9 patients were bonded with Assure (control), 9 patients were bonded with Pro Seal, and 8 patients were bonded with Opal Seal. Pretreatment and six-month progress photographs were used to calculate demineralization rates, and statistical analysis was performed to determine if any bonding agent is better at preventing WSLs. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in demineralization rates between the three bonding agents; however, descriptive statistics suggest that Pro Seal and Opal Seal may prevent demineralization more effectively than Assure.

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enamel demineralization is a concern in orthodontic patients with poor oral hygiene. To curtail this problem, amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) containing adhesives have been developed. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the cariostatic potential of an ACP containing orthodontic bonding agent adjacent to brackets. Sixty human molars were randomly distributed into: ACP adhesive, resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC), and conventional composite resin groups (N=20 each). Brackets were bonded following the manufacturer0́9s instructions. Tooth enamel through a 2mm window around the brackets was cycled in demineralization (6 hrs) and remineralization (18 hrs) solutions. After 14 days, teeth embedded in resin and were sectioned. Knoop indentations were performed to determine enamel hardness. There were no statistically significant differences between the control and experimental groups. However, both Fuji Ortho LC (RMGIC), and Aegis Ortho (ACP) showed a trend toward a reduction in demineralization. In addition, it was also shown that the initial acid etching of the enamel significantly reduces enamel hardness.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of a fluoride-containing orthodontic primer in preventing demineralization adjacent to brackets and compare the quality of enamel on tooth surfaces that received interproximal reduction (IPR). Methods: Patients at the VCU Orthodontic clinic, 10 years and older, who consented to orthodontic treatment involving extraction of at least 2 premolars were recruited to this split-mouth randomized controlled trial. Brackets were bonded to premolars using one of two primers, Opal®Seal"!or Transbond"!T. IPR was performed, and the fluoride-containing primer was applied to the randomly selected experimental tooth. Extracted teeth were analyzed visually and lesion depths were calculated using micro-CT imaging to note the presence and extent of demineralization. The prevalence and depth of lesions were compared using Fisher's Exact test and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test, respectively. Results: A total of 18 teeth from 6 subjects were included in the following analyses. Micro-CT analysis revealed lesions on 89% of teeth treated with Opal®Seal"!compared to 67% with Transbond"!T, but this difference was not statistically significant (p-value=0.5765). There was also no statistically significant difference between the depths of the lesions (p-value=1.00), handedness (p-value=0.5765), hygiene (0.7804), or time in the mouth (p-value=0.5601). Visual exam showed no association with treatment (p-value=1.00), handedness (p-value=1.00), hygiene (p-value=0.1373), or the time the teeth were in the mouth (p-value=0.2987). The fluoride-containing primer also seemed to have no effect on the quality of the enamel on teeth treated with IPR. Conclusion: Fluoride-containing primers may not be effective for preventing demineralization on teeth treated with orthodontic appliances.

Book excerpt: In this important new textbook all scientific and clinical aspects of orthodontic materials are described.Recent developments in science and technology have led to the introduction of a plethora of new orthodontic products. This work serves as an excellent source of information for a field that requires knowledge of basic elements of materials science, engineering, chemistry, and physics, as well as clinical orthodontics. The subject has been part of graduate orthodontic education for almost three decades. Besides servicing the orthodontic training programs, the book also - investigates the interactions of orthodontic materials with other dental materials as well as hard tissues in the oral cavity,- gives a background to allow for proper material selection for efficient orthodontic mechanics,- treats the issues of biocompatibility, cytotoxicity and mutagenicity of materials.
Download or read book Fluoride Release from Light cured Orthodontic Bonding Materials written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare the rate of fluoride release with time of one non-fluoridated and three fluoride-containing orthodontic bonding materials in distilled water and artificial saliva. Materials tested were: Assure (Reliance, Itasca, IL), Fuji Ortho LC (GC America Inc., Alsip, IL), Python (TP Orthodontics Inc., LaPorte, IN), and Transbond XT (3M, St Paul, MN). Twenty specimens of each material were polymerized and placed in polyethylene tubes. Half the specimens were stored in 1 mL of distilled water and half in 1 mL of unstimulated artificial saliva, at 37C and 100% relative humidity. Fluoride release was measured with an ion-specific electrode. Readings were taken-at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9 days from time of immersion, then weekly for three weeks and monthly for 5 months. To prevent cumulative measurements, storage solutions were changed 24 h prior to the weekly and monthly readings. Results showed Assure to release the most fluoride, followed by Fuji Ortho LC, Python, and Transbond. The fluoride release rates were greatest during the first days of testing, declining to low but stable levels. The type of storage medium did not dramatically affect fluoride release. Throughout the study, daily fluoride release rates of all three fluoride-containing materials were within the therapeutic range for the reduction of enamel demineralization. The second part of the study tested the twenty samples of Assure for a further two-week period, after exposure to running and still distilled water. Although fluoride release rates declined with time, they were again within the therapeutic range. Release rates were similar in running and still water at all time points.
