چکیده

AIM To measure the light transmission through different esthetic posts and to evaluate the degree of polymerization of dual cure resin cement cured through these posts. MATERIALS AND METHODS The posts were divided into two experimental groups i.e. Group A (D.T. Light post); Group B (D.T. White post) and control i.e. Group C (metal post), each group having 10 samples. Posts of each group were illuminated with curing light and photographs were taken keeping the parameters standardized to evaluate the intensity of light transmission at different levels. The degree of polymerization of dual cure resin cement was evaluated using Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy. The data obtained was subjected to statistical analysis. RESULTS D.T. Light post showed highest light transmission and degree of polymerization. The light intensity decreased from cervical to apical for both esthetic post but the decrease from middle to apical third was insignificant for D.T. White post group. No light transmission was detected in metal post but the degree of polymerization decreased significantly from cervical to middle third. CONCLUSION Cementation of fibre post with superior light transmitting ability using dual cured resin cement resulted in increased degree of polymerization.

اثر تابش نور بر روند پلیمریزاسیون سیمان های رزینی

Indirect esthetic restorations have recently gained popularity, and choosing suitable cement is an important concern in this regard. A wide variety of resin cements with different curing models:(chemical, light, dual), have been introduced to the profession, and among them the dual systems are claimed to be able to continue polymerization after stopping the light. In order to study and compare ...

پلیمریزاسیون سیمان‌های رزینی دوال کیور کاربردی جهت چسباندن پست‌های فایبری هم‌رنگ دندان

Background and Aim: Insufficient polymerization of resin cements is of considerable clinical importance, because of mechanical deficiencies and biological side effects of uncured resin. Dual cure resin cements are getting popular in luting tooth colored posts and although their curing is claimed to proceed chemically, polymerization efficiency in deep areas of canal is uncertain. The aim of thi...

Light Conduction Capability of Different Light-Transmitting FRC Posts

Introduction: Application of light transmitting posts to restore greatly damaged endodontically treated teeth has been increased. It is suspected that light intensity decreases as it passes throughout different materials. This can reduce the degree of conversion required for adequate bond strength throughout the length of these posts. The objective of this study was to evaluate the amount of li...

Effects of light attenuation by fibre posts on polymerization of a dual-cured resin cement and microleakage of post-restored teeth.

OBJECTIVES The influence of light transmitting ability of different fibre posts on the polymerization of a dual-cured resin cement, and the further microleakage of the post-restored endodontically treated teeth were examined. METHODS An LED curing light was used as light source and the measurements of 470 nm irradiances were made at 1mm intervals along the posts (P-Lux, P-White, and P-Steel)....
