Abstract
Background: During the debonding phase every clinician has to take care of preserving the enamel structure and tooth temperature. The objective of this study was to analyze in vitro the increase of the pulp chamber temperature and the wearing of enamel surface, during adhesive removal after debonding.
Methods: Sixty extracted human teeth were selected. An orthodontic bracket was bonded on each tooth and after bracket removal, intraoral scanner pictures were used to evaluate ARI for each tooth. Three different burs were tested: tungsten-carbide multiple blades, arkansas stone and ceramic bur. A mechanical arm controlled by a dedicated software was used to reproduce a repeatable act of composite removal. To analyze in vitro the pulp chamber temperature during the composite removal procedure, teeth were treated endodontically placing a thermocouple through the root canal from the apex. A software registered temperature changes in a continuous manner. The enamel surface of every tooth was tested after the removal of composite with an optical stereoscopic microscope.
Results: An association existed between maximum internal pulp chamber temperature variation and irrigation (P<0.0001) and between maximum internal pulp chamber temperature variation and bur type (P=0.0133), with a significantly lower temperature increase produced by the arkansas bur. A significant difference among groups was detected for ESI and EDI assessment (P=0.002, P=0.010).
Conclusions: Considering the initial setup, temperature variation analysis showed more conservative results using the arkansas burs with irrigation. ESI and EDI indexes showed significant enamel surface damage using tungsten-carbide burs.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
