Prefabricated zirconia crowns (ZRCs) require a passive fit and more reduction than stainless steel crowns (SSC). To determine the mean and maximum reduction depths in the mesial-buccal and occlusal areas for three ZRC brands and one SSC in posterior primary typodont molars and to compare reduction depths to existing literature to determine the preparation’s proximity to pulpal tissue. Four primary maxillary and mandibular typodont teeth (J and S) were prepared according to the manufacturers’ guidelines for three ZRCs and an SSC. The teeth were scanned before and after preparation with an optical scanner, and the mean and maximum depths of reduction for each tooth were calculated in triplicate with custom software and statistically compared among the types of crown. The results were compared to existing data on primary tooth enamel and dentin thickness. Maximum mesial-buccal and occlusal depth respectively of preparation for any ZRC for tooth J was 1.19 mm and 1.58 mm while for tooth S it was 1.06 and 2.07mm Both EZ Crowns and Kinder Krowns required an additional 0.5mm occlusal reduction beyond the manufacturer’s recommendation for tooth S. Ideal preparations of ZRCs require more reduction than SSCs. Both EZ Crowns and Kinder Krowns require more reduction than the manufacturer’s recommendation for a mandibular first primary molar.

Most studies dealing with the caries preventive action of Nd:YAG laser have been done in permanent teeth and studies on primary teeth are still lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro the effect of Nd:YAG laser combined or not with fluoride sources on the acid resistance of primary tooth enamel after artificial caries induction by assessing longitudinal microhardness and demineralization depth. Sixty enamel blocks obtained from the buccal/lingual surface of exfoliated human primary molars were coated with nail polish/wax, leaving only a 9 mm² area exposed on the outer enamel surface, and randomly assigned to 6 groups (n=10) according to the type of treatment: C-control (no treatment); APF: 1.23% acidulated phosphate fluoride gel; FV: 5% fluoride varnish; L: Nd:YAG laser 0.5 W/10 Hz in contact mode; APFL: fluoride gel + laser; FVL: fluoride varnish + laser. After treatment, the specimens were subjected to a des-remineralization cycle for induction of artificial caries lesions. Longitudinal microhardness data (%LMC) were analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis test and demineralization depth data were analyzed by oneway ANOVA and Fisher’s LSD test (á=0.05). APFL and APF groups presented the lowest percentage of microhardness change (p<0.05). Demineralization depth was smaller in all treated groups compared with the untreated control. In conclusion, Nd:YAG laser combined or not with fluoride gel/varnish was not more effective than fluoride alone to prevent enamel demineralization within the experimental period.

The paper is concerned with the investigation of dental caries treatment by the modern method based on the application of special composite material that can diffuse into the damaged zone, harden by light and prevent tooth decay. Carious disease was modeled as a diffusion process of acid penetration from the oral cavity into the tooth enamel with further dissolution of dental hard tissues in the subsurface layer of enamel. The model of dental caries was mathematically formulated. The solution was obtained by a numerical method using MATLAB. It is shown that the proposed model adequately describes the properties of the examined dental system.

Since primary tooth enamel wears more rapidly than permanent tooth enamel, it is important to study the mechanical wear patterns of restorative materials used in the primary dentition. It is important that an in vitro evaluation of wear resistance of different restorative materials is done in order to establish a valid in vitro test protocol for use in pediatric dentistry.

ABSTRACT Aim This study evaluated the influence of various doses of radiotherapy on the microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of compomer resin to dentin and enamel in primary molars. Materials and methods Thirty-five intact primary molars were collected and divided into seven groups. Teeth were irradiated with doses from 10 to 60 Gy, except for the control group. Compomer restorations were performed, and enamel—compomer resin beams and dentin—compomer resin beams were tested at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Results No statistically significant difference was found between the irradiated tooth enamel and the control group (F = 1.1468; p = 0.194). However, statistically significant differences were evident among the dentin groups (F = 11.050; p < 0.001). Conclusion Radiation may not cause a significant difference in the μTBS of compomer resin to primary tooth enamel, but appears to dose dependently decrease its bond strength to primary tooth dentin. Clinical significance Radiotherapy may affect the success rate of compomer fillings in primary teeth, especially in deeper cavities with exposed dentin.
