| Research Abstract |
Light-cured resin composites are now widely used in daily clinical practice because of their esthetic advantages, ease of use, good bonding to tooth structure, and improved mechanical properties. However, light-cured resin composites are usually polymerized from the resin surface near a light source, which causes polymerization contraction of the resin composite towards the light. This shrinkage creates more gaps between the resin and cavity wall/floor than self-cured resin composites.
This projects was to evaluate the effect of the light wring method on the marginal sealing and cavity wall adaptation on resin composite restorations with different C-factor shapes and also to evaluate the effect of incremental filling technique on resin micro-bond strength to Class I dentin-cavity floors. Moreover, environmental SEM observation was carried out to evaluate on resin-tooth interface using two light curing method.
It was concluded that incremental filling technique did not improve dentin micro-bond strength to cavity floor. On the other hand, slow-start curing method ; 270 mW/cm^2 10 s + 5 s (interval) + 600 mW/cm^2 50 s reduce the polymerization contraction stress, and tended to improve marginal sealing and resin composite adaptation to the cavity wall regardless of bonding system and C-factor. Ordinary curing method ; 600 mW/cm^2 60 s resulted in poor marginal sealing and wall adaptation. Environmental SEM observation showed that the slow-start curing method improved resin composite adaptation to the cavity wall and this curing method was effective to the cavities both with and without enamel margin.
