Inhibitive Effect of a New Dental Resin Composite on Enamel Artificial Caries

Abstract:

Purpose To investigate the cariostatic effect of six restorative materials in vitro. Method Enamel blocks of bovine incisors were restored with six restorative materials (a conventional GIC, FujiIILC, Compoglass F, BeautifilII,Charisma and an experimental fluoride releasing resin composite) respectively with a gap of 270μm in width between each filling material and enamel. Then all restorations were immersed in a partially saturated acidic buffer solution at 37C for 3days. The surface enamel microhardness of the enamel blocks were measured before and after demineralization and the depth of enamel demineralization was measured using polarization microscope for each restoration.Results Enamel surface hardness of all restorations demonstrated significant reduced after demineralization ( p<0.05), and the order of hardness reduction is as follows: Charisma >BeautifilII≈Compoglass F≈Experimental Resin>FujiIILC>GIC ( p> 0.05). The order of the depth of enamel demineralization along the surface and the interface near the gap for the 5 materials is as follows: Charisma >BeautifilII≈Compoglass F ≈Experimental Resin>FujiIILC>GIC (P > 0.05). Conclusion The new fluoride releasing and recharging composite resin has the ability to prevent recurrent caries around the restoration and its ability is comparable to compomer materials.
