RESUMO

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been identified as agents that disintegrate the collagen structures of dental hybrid layers, resulting in reduced restorative bond strength. Multiple MMP inhibitors (MMPIs) are known to counteract this degenerative mechanism, thereby preserving bond strength and promoting the longevity of resin-based restorations. Additionally, literature suggests that certain MMPI materials possess antimicrobial/anticariogenic properties, potentially reducing the risk of secondary caries development. Therefore, this review article aims to narrate on the integration of matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors into adhesive systems and their impact on bond strength.

RESUMO

The most common problem faced by dentists during root canal therapy is instrument separation. Instrument separation leads to the inefficient biomechanical preparation of the canals, which can affect the outcome of the root canal-treated tooth. Hence, bypassing the fractured instrument or removal can be accounted as a viable choice to maintain the structural integrity of the tooth. This article illustrates a case series wherein the fractured instrument was managed successfully with the use of conservative techniques.

RESUMO

Background This study aimed to evaluate the effect of various surface treatments on the push-out bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin. Methodology A total of 96 single-rooted premolars were decoronated and obturated and post spaces were prepared for 9 mm. The canals were irrigated with 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid followed by distilled water. The samples were divided into the two following groups based on the type of fiber posts used: Group I - glass fiber post (Reforpost size 1) and Group II: quartz fiber post (Quartzix Added Posts number 1). Further, each group was divided into four subgroups based on the surface treatments (A: no treatment (control); B: silanization; C: 4% titanium tetrafluoride (four minutes) followed by silanization; D: sandblasting followed by silanization). After surface treatments, posts were cemented using self-adhesive resin cement (RelyX U200). Three 2 mm thick slices were obtained and push-out tests were done. Failure modes were analyzed under a stereomicroscope. The surface morphology of the posts was analyzed with a scanning electron microscope. Data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance. Results Treating the posts with airborne particle abrasion (sandblasting) followed by silanization showed the highest bond strength. The coronal level of the root showed the highest bond strength compared to the middle and apical levels. Adhesive failures between the resin cement and dentin were found to be the highest. Conclusions Sandblasting followed by silanization produced the highest bond strength. The coronal level of the root showed the highest bond strength. Adhesive failures were the highest followed by mixed failures.

RESUMO

Aim This study aimed to assess and compare the mechanical properties, including compressive strength, diametral tensile strength, flexural strength, fracture resistance, microhardness, and microleakage, between Cention N (Ivoclar Vivadent, Gurugram, India) and Cention N enriched with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles. Methodology A total of 120 samples were involved in the study, which were split into two experimental groups. For evaluation of each mechanical property, 20 samples were included, of which 10 samples were used for evaluating the properties of Cention N and 10 samples were used for TiO2 nanoparticles-enriched Cention N. Samples, formed using Teflon molds, were filled with Cention N and TiO2-enriched Cention N powders mixed per the manufacturer's instructions. The universal testing machine (UTM) was used to assess compressive, flexural, diametral tensile strength, and fracture resistance. Microhardness was evaluated using a diamond indenter, while microleakage was examined utilizing a stereomicroscope. Results The nanotitania-enriched Cention N showed significantly increased mechanical properties and increased microhardness with the least microleakage. Conclusion The inclusion of TiO2 in Cention N has proved to yield promising results.
