Purpose: To evaluate in vivo the feasibility of utilizing Amalgambond adhesive agent alone for the treatment of cervical sensitivity on teeth that did not require a restoration. Materials and methods: Nineteen subjects were selected from a group of patients reporting sensitivity at the cervical region of anterior or posterior teeth. The degree of sensitivity was determined by tactile sense (scraping an explorer over the surface area) or "fluid-shift" sensitivity determined by an air-blast from a syringe for 5 seconds. Patient reactions to stimuli were qualified as : (1) none; (2) slight; (3) moderate; and (4) severe. Only patients with at least two teeth experiencing moderate or severe sensitivity were used. Each of the patients had at least one sensitive tooth treated with Amalgambond and at least one untreated sensitive tooth to act as control. Results were recorded at 24 hours, 7 days, 1 and 6 months. Results: At 6 months, 18 of 19 treated teeth recalled showed decreased sensitivity with 15 showing no sensitivity, and only one remained as sensitive as at baseline. All control teeth remained unchanged from original sensitivity ratings. The teeth with cervical sensitivity treated with Amalgambond adhesive alone had a high probability of decrease or complete loss of sensitivity immediately and the decrease was sustained for at least 6 months (P<0.001).

Purpose: To evaluate the microleakage of CAD-CAM porcelain inlay restorations cemented with four different dual cure resin cements. Materials and methods: Thirty human extracted caries-free molar teeth were prepared with a Class II MOD cavity design. One proximal box ended on enamel and the other on root surface dentin. The teeth were divided into six groups of five samples each. Two groups were restored with a direct placement composite resin to serve as a control. The other four groups were restored with CAD/CAM-generated ceramic inlays that were cemented with four dual cure resin cements. All specimens were thermocycled. Microleakage of the restorations was assessed by dye penetration. Results: Compared to direct placement resin composite which demonstrated an excellent enamel marginal seal, CAD/CAM-generated porcelain inlays produced excellent marginal seals at both the enamel and dentin interfaces.

Los recientes avances en la adhesion al esmalte y dentina y el uso de restauraciones de porcelana de alta resistencia podrian producir claras ventajas sobre las restauraciones tradicionales. Estos metodos representan un gran avance en la odontologia estetica. Este articulo describe las aplicaciones de restauracion de esta tecnologia, muchas de las cuales ya se han probado en clinica con resultados superiores a los de las porcelanas tradicionales. Los metodos clinicos requieren una cuidadosa atencion a cualquier detalle y una buena tecnica de grabado acido. Si se realizan con una buena tecnica, no hay duda de los beneficios para el paciente de estos metodos conservadores. La investigacion dental cada vez se acerca mas al material restaurador ideal.

Although the development of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacture (CAM) technology and the benefits of increased productivity became obvious in the automobile and aerospace industries in the 1970s, investigations of this technology&#39;s application in the field of dentistry did not begin until the 1980s. Only now are we beginning to see the fruits of this work with the commercial availability of some systems; the potential for this technology seems boundless. This article reviews the recent literature with emphasis on the period from June 1992 to May 1993. This review should familiarize the reader with some of the latest developments in this technology, including a brief description of some systems currently available and the clinical and economical rationale for their acceptance into the dental mainstream. This article concentrates on a particular system, the Cerec (Siemens/Pelton and Crane, Charlotte, NC) system, for three reasons: first, this system has been available since 1985 and, as a result, has a track record of almost 7 years of data. Most of the data have just recently been released and consequently, much of this year&#39;s literature on CAD-CAM is monopolized by studies using this system. Second, this system was developed as a mobile, affordable, direct chairside CAD-CAM restorative method. As such, it is of special interest to the dentist who will offer this new technology directly to the patient, providing a one-visit restoration. Third, the author is currently engaged in research using this particular system and has a working knowledge of this system&#39;s capabilities.

Since its introduction 10 years ago, the etched porcelain veneer restoration has performed exceedingly well. The union of etched porcelain, composite resin cement, and etched enamel has proven over this time to be an exceptionally durable and highly esthetic restoration. The author has placed more than 5,000 etched porcelain veneer restorations over the past 10 years, but has had to replace less than two percent of these restorations because of clinical failure. If properly constructed and placed, this restoration has the potential to survive the hostile oral environment at least as long as any other dental restoration, if not longer. This restoration should now be considered the modality of choice for many conditions that might previously have been treated with full coverage or direct composite bonding.
