Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how adding a layer of universal adhesive affects the formation of gaps between tooth enamel/dentin and composite material, using advanced imaging techniques like SD-OCT and SEM.
- It involved restoring cavities in premolars with different adhesives and application methods, measuring interfacial gaps at various stages post-restoration.
- Results showed that the adhesive type, application mode, and number of adhesive layers significantly impacted gap formation, with specific findings indicating that double application of Scotchbond Universal resulted in more gaps compared to other methods.
Caries, the world's most common chronic disease, remains a major cause of invasive restorative dental treatment. To take advantage of the diagnostic potential of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in contemporary dental prevention and treatment, an intraorally applicable spectral-domain OCT probe has been developed based on an OCT hand-held scanner equipped with a rigid 90°-optics endoscope. The probe was verified in vitro.
