    Notes: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the fluoride uptake/release of polyacid-modified resin composites (compomers) in neutral and acidic buffer solutions. Two compomers (Dyract® and Compoglass®) were tested and the conventional glass–ionomer cement (GIC) Vivaglass Base® served as a control. Forty specimens were fabricated from each of the respective materials. Twenty of these specimens were placed in artificial saliva and the other 20 specimens in a fluoridated dentifrice slurry for 5 min. Then, 10 fluoridated and 10 non-fluoridated specimens were immersed in a neutral buffer solution (pH 6·8), and the other specimens were immersed in an acidic solution (pH 4·0). After 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days the samples were again placed in either a fluoridated dentifrice slurry or saliva for 5 min, after which time they were transferred to fresh buffer solutions. The fluoride content of the solutions was assessed with a fluoride sensitive electrode. Fluoride release from all the materials decreased continuously during the experiment, with a significantly higher release in the acidic solution compared to the neutral buffer solution. Fluoridation did not result in an increased fluoride release for the compomers. However, the conventional GIC revealed a significantly higher fluoride release after fluoridation. It is concluded that Dyract® and Compoglass® can not be replenished with fluoride, irrespective of the pH value of the environment.

    Notes: Summary The aim of the present in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of carbamide peroxide (CP) bleaching on fluoride uptake in enamel. Additionally, the susceptibility for erosion in bleached and fluoridated enamel was tested. Each four enamel specimens were prepared from 44 bovine incisors. The four samples gained from each tooth were distributed among four groups (A–D) of 44 specimens each: A: (unbleached/unfluoridated) served for determination of baseline fluoride concentration; B: (unbleached/fluoridated) four times in 2000 ppm NaF solution (2 min); C: (bleached/unfluoridated) four times in 10% CP (8 h); D: (bleached/fluoridated) four times in 10% CP and fluoridation. In 22 specimens of each group both KOH-soluble and structurally bound fluoride were determined in the outermost 30 μm of the enamel. In the remaining specimens erosions were induced by immersing the samples in 5 mL of 1% citric acid (20 min) and microhardness was evaluated before and after demineralization. Statistical analysis showed that KOH-soluble fluoride uptake was similar for group B and D specimens. Structurally bound fluoride uptake after fluoride application in unbleached samples was significantly higher than in bleached ones. Bleaching only resulted in a highly significant fluoride loss. In all samples erosion caused a significant microhardness loss. The study showed that pre-treatment of enamel with CP followed by fluoridation does not improve erosive resistance. Moreover the study reveals that CP treatment decreases concentration of structurally bound fluoride in enamel which could not be outweighed by fluoridation with 2000 ppm NaF. It is concluded that it is not feasible to improve fluoride uptake in enamel with a pre-treatment with 10% CP.

    Notes: summary  Aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of tea applied at various time intervals after bleaching of enamel on intrinsic tooth colour. Ninety bovine specimens were distributed among six groups (A–F, n=15). The samples of group A–D were bleached with the 10% carbamide peroxide (CP) gel VivaStyle for 8 h, followed by storing in artificial saliva for the remaining period of the day. The specimens were removed from the saliva at different intervals (A: 0 min, B: 60 min, C: 240 min) and immersed in freshly prepared black tea for 10 min. Group D (bleaching, no tea), E (no bleaching, but tea) and F (no bleaching, no tea) served as controls. These procedures were repeated for 8 days. Colour was measured at baseline, after each day, and after final cleaning using the CIELab-system. Then Δb (initial b-value – final reading), ΔL, and composite colour (ΔE) were statistically analysed. External bleaching (A–D) led to a distinct whitening effect with lower Δb- (=reduction in yellow) and higher ΔL-values (=increase in brightness) compared with controls. The Δb- and ΔL-values of the samples A–C were not significantly different from the samples which were bleached only. No significant difference was observed comparing specimens of group A–C. It is concluded that application of tea directly after bleaching with 10% CP does not significantly effect the outcome of a bleaching treatment irrespective of the time interval elapsed between the bleaching procedure and the contact of the tooth surface with tea.

    Notes: summary The objective of the study was to evaluate the remineralizing capacity of different fluoride treatments on dental enamel bleached with carbamide peroxide (Opalescence®). Sixty bovine enamel slabs were subjected to four cycles comprising bleaching (12 h) and remineralization in artificial saliva (8 h). The samples were evenly distributed among four groups (A-D). During the first hour of the remineralization period the specimens in group A were covered with a fluoride varnish (Duraphat®; 2.23% F−). In group B the enamel slabs were stored in a fluoride solution (0.2% F− as NaF) for 1 min prior to remineralization. Group C did not receive a fluoride treatment, and group D (control) was stored in distilled water instead of bleaching. Microhardness (VHN) was evaluated before the experimerits and after the second and fourth cycle, respectively. Final hardness was calculated as percentage of the initial hardness. Analysis of variance was applied to the data followed by pairwise comparisons with corrected level of significance (P 〈 0.01). Hardness decreased significantly in groups A-C compared to the control group (D). The bleached and unfluoridated specimens (group C) showed a significantly higher hardness loss compared to the fluoridated specimens, whereas no significant difference was observed between the two fluoridated groups. It is concluded that remineralization of bleached enamel is improved by application of highly concentrated fluorides.

    Notes: Background:  Correct diagnosis of the presence and extent of subgingival calculus is important for periodontal treatment planning and reassessment after periodontal therapy. Traditional tactile methods often lack sensitivity. The present investigation shall contribute to understanding the fundamental fluorescence properties that may be useful for optical detection of both supra- and subgingival calculus.Objectives:  The aim of this study was to investigate emission spectra from supra- and subgingival calculus under a wide range of excitation wavelengths.Methods and Results:  Extracted human molars with either supragingival or subgingival calculus deposits on the root surface were selected (n = 3 each). Emission spectra were recorded from the calculus of each tooth and corresponding areas of clean root surfaces using a fluorescence spectrophotometer at excitation wavelengths from 360 nm up to 580 nm in steps of 20 nm. The spectra were corrected for the wavelength dependent instrument sensitivity and normalized to peak intensity (the highest peak was set at 1.0). Emission spectra of calculus exhibited distinct fluorescence bands between 570 and 730 nm not present in clean root surfaces. This fluorescence emission was strongest for excitation wavelengths from 400 to 420 nm. No differences were observed between supra- and subgingival calculus.Conclusions:  Human dental calculus can clearly be differentiated from clean root surfaces by emission spectrophotometry. The characteristic fluorescence emission of supra- and subgingival calculus may be due to a variety of porphyrin derivatives and may provide the basis for future diagnostic procedures.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this prospective study, conducted in a dental practice was to evaluate the success rate of a hybrid composite material (TPH-Spectrum; Dentsply DeTrey, Konstanz, Germany) and a polyacid-modified composite resin (Compoglass; Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) in Class II restorations in primary molars after 1 year. A total of 190 restorations (96 with TPH-Spectrum and 94 with Compoglass) were inserted in 52 children. TPH-Spectrum was applied using the total etching technique, whereas Compoglass was inserted without acid etching prior to application of the bonding adhesive. The restorations were assessed according to the Ryge criteria, directly after placement and after 1 year. After 12 months, 6.4% of the Compoglass and 3.1% of the TPH-Spectrum restorations were clinically unacceptable and had to be renewed. The fillings with Compoglass revealed a tendency to lower evaluation scores with respect to color matching, cavosurface discoloration, anatomic form, margin integrity and caries assessment than the restorations with TPH-Spectrum. However, these differences were statistically not significant. The results of the present investigation show that, at least for a period of 1 year, both the hybrid composite TPH-Spectrum and the polyacid-modified composite resin Compoglass are suitable materials for restoration of deciduous molars. However, owing to the fewer treatment steps required for application of a polyacid-modified composite resin, this type of material may be more favorable for restoring primary molars.

    Notes: Abstract  The aim of the study was to evaluate the fluoride release of polyacid-modified composite resins (Dyract, Compoglass) submitted to brushing abrasion. Twenty samples were taken from each material and stored in a buffer solution (pH 4.0) for 12 days. Each day, the samples were transferred to a fresh solution. Ten samples of each material were brushed in an automatic tooth-brushing machine (250 strokes, 260-g load) every fourth day. The remaining samples were not subjected to brushing. Fluoride content of the solutions was measured with a fluoride sensitive electrode after the addition of TISAB. Statistical analysis demonstrated significant differences between the two materials with regard to cumulative fluoride release within the 12 days of the experiment. However, no difference was observed between the fluoride release of the brushed samples compared to the unbrushed specimens. This was true for both, the cumulative fluoride release and its release on the day following brushing. It is assumed that regular brushing of the tested materials did not influence their release of fluoride and that brushing of polyacid-modified composite resins does not lead to maintaining their initially high level of fluoride release.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the present study was to compare fluoride uptake of dentin with and without simulating dentinal fluid flow. Eighty-five dentinal discs were prepared from retained human molars. Seventeen discs were used to assess baseline fluoride content (controls). Sixty-eight discs were evenly distributed among two experimental groups and were fixed for 24 h in a two-chamber device allowing for simulating dentinal fluid flow. Thirty-four samples were treated with dentifrice slurry containing a low fluoride concentration (Elmex, dilution 1:5); the remaining discs were treated with a solution of a high fluoride concentration (Elmex Fluid). For the perfused group, each of the 17 discs of the high and low concentration fluoride groups were constantly perfused during the experiment. The remaining fluoridated specimens were not perfused. All specimens were assayed for KOH-soluble fluoride and structurally bound fluoride. Structurally bound fluoride was determined in three successive layers of 20 µm each. Uptake of KOH-soluble fluoride was significantly higher in the specimens fluoridated with Elmex Fluid compared to the samples treated with the dentifrice slurry. The uptake of KOH-soluble fluoride was not influenced by perfusion of the dentinal discs. However, perfusion resulted in lower acquisition of structurally bound fluoride in the samples treated with the dentifrice slurry. After application of Elmex Fluid, no significant difference was found in the amount of structurally bound fluoride between the perfused specimens and non-perfused samples. It is suggested that further studies on fluoride uptake in dentin should use a model simulating outward dentinal fluid flow.
