Influence of Dynamic Loading and Different Adhesive Systems on the Microleakage in Root Canals

摘要

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of dynamic loading and different adhesive systems on the microleakage in root canals.80 human premolars were used in this study. The crowns of the teeth were sectioned at the cemento-enamel junction using a low speed diamond saw. After post space preparation, the roots were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n = 20) and restored with different adhesive systems. Group 1: Rely X ARC (RA) + Single Bond (SA), Group 2: Clearfll SA Cement (CL), Group 3: Panavia F 2.0 (PAN), Group 4: Rely X Unicem (RU). All the teeth were restored with the same type of glass fiber post and coronal cores built up with light-polymerizing hybrid composite resin. Half of the specimens of each group (n = 10) were subjected to additional dynamic loading in a universal testing machine. Apical parts of the roots were attached to computerized fluid filtration device for leakage measurement.The two-way ANOVA test was used first to detect overall significance, followed by two-sample t-test to identify which pairs of groups had significant differences. For each outcome statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Dynamic loading significantly increased the microleakage values for Rely X ARC (p = 0.005), Clearfil SA Cement (p = 0.002) and Rely X Unicem groups (p = 0.001) but Panavia F 2.0 group was not affected by the dynamic loading (p = 0.111). One-way ANOVA test was applied to detect any significant differences in microleakage values for the adhesive systems. In the unloaded groups, there is no difference between the adhesive systems (p = 0.13). For the dynamically loaded groups, there is only significant difference between PAN and RA groups (p = 0.010). Post-hoc pairwise comparisons were done using Tukey's multiple comparisons. Differences between Rely X ARC-Clearfil SA Cement and Rely X ARC-Panavia F 2.0 are statistically significant (p = 0.009, 0.013).Although microleakage values increased after dynamic loading when Rely X Unicem, Rely X ARC and Clearfil SA Cement were used, however microleakage values did not change when Panavia F 2.0 was used. Panavia F 2.0 showed better results compared to the other adhesive systems.
