Dr. Priya K presently lives in Bangalore. Orthodontic band has been in clinical use for more than 100 years. In spite of the wide spread use of direct bonded brackets and tubes in clinical orthodontics, the conventional band still plays an important role in fixed appliance therapy.Although bonding of orthodontic tubes to the teeth is receiving much current interest in the form of indirect bonding, the vast majority of buccal attachments are still being cemented using stainless steel bands and conventional cements, considering the force levels in the posterior region. Enamel demineralization under orthodontic bands is a serious, but a common problem to all orthodontists. White spot formation or enamel decalcification can occur whenever bacterial plaque is retained on enamel surface for a prolonged period.By the presence of fixed appliance the efficiency of home prophylactic procedure is greatly reduced and there is a need for protection of adjacent enamel surface. Inadequate bonding strength of dental cement, seal break down, solubility of the currently used dental cements in oral fluids and poor oral hygiene all contribute to the initiation of decalcification.Several studies in the past have investigated the chemical composition of various cements, their physical and chemical properties and their application as well as use in restorative dentistry. The retention of orthodontic bands to the tooth surface is important to ensure fixed appliance therapy. Numerous agents have been used to retain orthodontic bands. Guttapercha, zinc oxide eugenol, zinc polyacrylate cement, zinc polycarboxylate cement, resin based cements, zinc silicophosphate and black copper cement have all been investigated. More recently attention has been focused on glass ionomer cement.Sand blasting of the metal surface improves retention by roughening, thereby increasing the surface area and providing a potential for a degree of mechanical attachment . It not only increases the retentive area of the band luting surface, but also removes contaminants and thins the stainless steel oxide layer leaving a more firmly attached layer for bonding.This technique of air abrasion or sand blasting was introduced in 1950's. It uses a high-speed stream o f aluminum oxide particles propelled by compressed air. Although initially reintroduced as a method to roughen the surface of any dental materials before cementation, it is routinely used in cast metal restoration to enhance the bond strength; more recent marketing includes its application to orthodontics to roughen the internal surface of the bands and bracket bases.This in-vitro study is undertaken to explore and emphasize the possibilities of increasing bond strength with newer hybrid cement s and subsequently sand blasting the inner surface of the bands to enhance bond strength.

Download or read book Expert Level of Dental Resins Material Science Technology written by Ralf Janda and published by tredition. This book was released on 2022-09-12 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resin materials are broadly used in dentistry for almost all indications, and they will gain even more importance in the future. Especially the increasing performance and efficiency of the CAD/CAM technology and 3D-printing open possibilities to use resins which were not used up to now in dentistry. Besides dentists, dental students or dental technicians, there are many other specialists such as researchers, material scientists, industrial developers or experts of adjoining professional disciplines who are technically engaged in dental resins. The "Expert Level" is the third book of the series "Dental Resins - Material Science & Technology". The "Expert Level" includes all information and data presented in the "Basic Level" and "Advanced Level" of this series, but enormously expands the knowledge base. From a total database of 8.198 references, 1.707 were selected and used for this textbook. It comprises more than 1,000 manuscript pages, 384 figures and 124 tables. The "Expert Level" describes very accurately and comprehensively all details of the material science and technology of dental polymers and composites. Furthermore, their production methods and applications are discussed in detail. Therefore, this book is a unique treatise of the complete present knowledge about dental resins and dental resin composites. This includes the discussion of the - raw/starting materials together with the explanation and presentation of their chemical structures and properties, their CAS Numbers and the names of the manufacturers. - amounts of the raw/starting materials usually used to formulate the finished products. - important material and toxicological properties of the starting materials and the finished products. - detailed description of the production processes of essential starting materials such as the syntheses of essential monomers, the silanization of inorganic fillers or the manufacturing of unfilled and filled splinter polymers. - detailed description of the formulation and the properties of the finished products. Furthermore, for many commercial endproducts rather detailed formulations as well as the exact production processes are described. All ISO standards that are relevant for dental resins are listed, too. Furthermore, many essential methods to test the mechanical, chemical and toxicological properties are also presented and explained. The "Expert Level" enables every scientist with a good chemical knowledge not only to understand how dental polymers function, but also to develop new and improved products.
