Objectives: New resin cement (NRC) has been developed as a root repairing material and the material is composed of organic resin matrix and inorganic powders. The aim of this study was to compare the rat subcutaneous tissue response to NRC and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) cement and to investigate the tissue toxicity of both materials.
Materials And Methods: Sixty rats received two polyethylene tube-implants in dorsal subcutaneous regions, MTA and NRC specimens. Twenty rats were sacrificed respectively at 1, 4 and 8 wk after implantation and sectioned to 5 µm thickness and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (H-E) or von-Kossa staining. The condition of tissue adjacent to the implanted materials and the extent of inflammation to each implant were evaluated by two examiners who were unaware of the type of implanted materials in the tissues. Data were statistically analyzed with paired t-test (p < 0.05).
Results: In specimens implanted with both NRC and MTA, severe inflammatory reactions were present at one wk, which decreased with time. At eighth wk, MTA implanted tissue showed mild inflammatory reaction, while there were moderate inflammatory reactions in NRC implanted tissue, respectively. In NRC group, von-Kossa staining showed more calcification materials than MTA group at eighth wk.
Conclusions: It was concluded that the calcium reservoir capability of NRC may contribute to mineralization of the tissues.

Purpose: To make micro-CT comparison and evaluation of sealant penetration depth in different types of fissures after heating of the material or application of vibrations.
Materials And Methods: One hundred sound third molars have been sealed as follows: group 1 (n = 20), light-cured resin sealant at room temperature, group 2 (n = 20), light-cured resin sealant, preheated to 41.0°C, group 3 (n = 20), light-cured resin sealant, preheated to 51.

Purpose: This study was aimed at investigating the thermal stresses in monolithic zirconia crowns (MZC) of various thicknesses and elucidating their thermal behavior under cooling or heating changes in the oral cavity. Additionally, the clinical availability and potential issues of MZC were examined by comparing them with other crown materials.
Methods: Finite element models comprising MZC (0.

Purpose: This in-vitro study was conducted to assess the fracture resistance of resin-bonded ceramic endocrowns with different designs at varying intracoronal depths.
Materials And Methods: Forty-eight (n = 48) extracted mandibular first molar teeth were randomly divided into four groups (n = 12). In the control group, the specimens remained untreated.

Background: Hydrophilic monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA)-free adhesive systems are gaining increasing popularity nowadays. Although the addition of HEMA to dental adhesives improves dentin wettability and resin diffusion into demineralized collagen fibrils, HEMA's high hydrophilicity can lead to hydrolytic degradation of the adhesive interface. Thus, HEMA-free adhesive systems have been developed.
