Item The Effect of Radiotherapy on the Marginal Adaptation of Class II Direct Resin Composite Restorations: A Micro-computed Tomography Analysis(2022) Oglakci, B.; Burduroglu, D.; Eris, A. H.; Mayadagli, A.; Arhun, N.; 35226728This laboratory study was designed to evaluate the marginal adaptation of Class II mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) restorations at the cervical region with micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Two groups of restorations were compared: 1) those that had been exposed to radiotherapy before restoration was performed using a universal adhesive in etch-and-rinse and self-etch modes; and 2) those that had previously been restored using a universal adhesive in etch-and-rinse and self-etch modes and had subsequently undergone radiotherapy. Sixty intact human molars were randomly divided into groups according to irradiation status: no radiotherapy (control group); radiotherapy followed by restoration (radiotherapy-first group); and restoration followed by radiotherapy (restoration-first group). These three groups were then subdivided into two groups each on the basis of adhesive application type (etch-and-rinse and self-etch modes), for a total of six groups (n=10/group). Standardized Class II MOD cavities were prepared. A universal adhesive (Clearfil Universal Bond Quick, Kuraray, Okayama, Japan) was applied. The teeth were restored with resin composite (Estelite Posterior Quick, Tokuyama, Tokyo, Japan). The radiotherapy protocol was conducted with 60 gray (Gy) at 2 Gy/day, five days a week for six weeks. Adhesive defects were analyzed in distal and mesial views and evaluated with micro-CT (SkyScan 1174v2, Kontich, Antwerp, Belgium) on the basis of the volume of black spaces between the cavity walls and the restorative materials (mm(3)). The data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U and Wilcoxon tests (p<0.05). The radiotherapy protocol did not affect the marginal adaptation of the universal adhesive at the cervical regions. Regarding the application modes, for the radiotherapy-first group, the self-etch mode caused significantly higher adhesive defects than the etch-and-rinse mode at the dentin margin. For the no-radiotherapy group, the adhesive defects at the dentin margin were significantly higher than at the enamel margin with the application of the etch-and-rinse mode.Item Resistance to Fracture of Dental Roots Obturated with Different Materials(2015) Celikten, Berkan; Uzuntas, Ceren Feriha; Gulsahi, Kamran; 25756048The aim of this study was to compare the vertical fracture resistance of roots obturated with different root canal filling materials and sealers. Crowns of 55 extracted mandibular premolar teeth were removed to provide root lengths of 13mm. Five roots were saved as negative control group (canals unprepared and unfilled). Fifty root canals were instrumented and then five roots were saved as positive control group (canals prepared but unfilled). The remaining 45 roots were randomly divided into three experimental groups (n = 15 root/group) and obturated with the following procedures: in group 1, glass ionomer-based sealer and cone (ActiV GP obturation system); in group 2, bioceramic sealer and cone (EndoSequence BC obturation system); and in group 3, roots were filled with bioceramic sealer and cone (Smartpaste bio obturation system). All specimens were tested in a universal testing machine for measuring fracture resistance. For each root, the force at the time of fracture was recorded in Newtons. The statistical analysis was performed by using Kruskal-Wallis and post hoc test. There were no significant differences between the three experimental groups. The fracture values of three experimental and negative control groups were significantly higher than the positive control group. Within the limitations of this study, all materials increased the fracture resistance of instrumented roots.
