RESUMO

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: Recently, zeolite has been regarded to improve the properties of dental materials such as mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of incorporating zeolite/silver/zinc (Ze/Ag/Zn) composite at 2 wt% to MTA powder on the push-out bond strength in simulated furcation perforations. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Furcal perforations, measuring 1.3 mm in diameter and 2 mm in height, were simulated in 40 human mandibular first molars. The samples were allocated to two groups (n=20) based on the material used for the repair of perforations. In the group 1, MTA and in the group 2, MTA plus Ze/Ag/Zn (2%) was used. The samples were incubated at 37°C for 1 week. Then the universal testing machine was employed to measure bond strength. The resistance of materials to dislodgment was recorded in MPa. Data were analyzed using t-test. Statistical significance was set at p< 0.05. RESULTS: The push-out bond strength in the group 1 (6.40±1.98 MPa) was significantly higher than that in the group 2 (2.1±0.6 MPa) with p= 0.001. CONCLUSION: Under the limitations of the present study, it can be concluded that incorporation of Ze/Ag/Zn at 2 wt% to MTA powder had a negative effect on the push-out bond strength.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Dentin hypersensitivity is one of the most common complications that affect patients after periodontal therapy. Recently low level laser therapy has been introduced as a new treatment modality and has produced beneficial results. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of low level laser therapy toothbrushes in reduction of dentin hypersensitivity. METHODS: In this pilot interventional controlled clinical trial, 40 patients suffering from dentin hypersensitivity were selected using simple randomization. Half of the patients were given laser toothbrushes and the other half was given non-laser sensodyne toothbrushes. Primary dentin hypersensitivity was recorded by visual analogue scale (VAS) score and ice spray. Then dentin hypersensitivity was measured right after the treatment as well az in the intervals of 1 month and 2 months after initiation of the study. Data were compared using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software and Analysis of variance (ANOVA) paired T test. RESULTS: The results of this study showed that there was a significant difference in each of the two kinds of tooth brushes separately for all time intervals (P < 0.001). Also the effect of the type of toothbrush was investigated using before treatment VAS with covariance analyses. P values for immediately, 1 month and 2 months after treatment were calculated to be 0.078, 0.02, 0.01 respectfully. Also the effect of the toothbrush type was significant in the manner that laser toothbrushes reduce dentin hypersensitivity more than ordinary toothbrushes (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION: Both sensodyne and laser tooth brushes improve dentin hypersensitivity, although the laser toothbrush led to better results in short.
