Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate, through a case report combined with in vitro study, whether a new diagnostic white tip for the transillumination technique during resin infiltration influences the procedure and degree of conversion (DC).
Materials and methods: A clinical case report demonstrated resin infiltration using the transillumination technique with a new white diagnostic tip (Radii Xpert LED diagnostic tip, SDI, Bayswater, VIC, AU) along with a light-curing device to enhance aesthetic results. An in vitro study assessed the DC of two diagnostic white tips (Radii Xpert LED diagnostic tip [SDI, Bayswater, VIC, AU] and Valo Grand White Light Lens [Ultradent Prod., South Jordan, UT, USA]) compared to that achieved using conventional tips of both light-curing devices. Statistical analysis was performed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05).
Results: The clinical case achieved complete masking of the white spot lesion. In vitro, the diagnostic white tips exhibited significantly lower DC values compared to conventional tips (p = 0.001), regardless of the light-curing unit.
Conclusions: The diagnostic white tip used in the transillumination technique improves resin infiltration visibility without compromising the degree of conversion.
Clinical significance: The transillumination technique with the diagnostic white tip enables monitoring of resin infiltration while maintaining effective polymerization.
目的:本研究旨在通过病例报告结合体外研究,评估在树脂浸润过程中,用于透射照明技术的新型白色诊断针头是否会影响手术过程和转换程度(DC):一份临床病例报告显示,使用新型白色诊断喷嘴(Radii Xpert LED 诊断喷嘴,SDI,Bayswater,VIC,AU)和光固化设备,通过透射照明技术进行树脂浸润,以提高美学效果。一项体外研究评估了两种白色诊断针头(Radii Xpert LED 诊断针头[SDI, Bayswater, VIC, AU]和 Valo Grand 白光透镜[Ultradent Prod., South Jordan, UT, USA])与两种光固化设备传统针头的直流电效果比较。统计分析采用双向方差分析和 Tukey 检验(α = 0.05):结果:临床病例实现了对白斑病变的完全遮盖。在体外,与传统针尖相比,诊断性白色针尖的 DC 值明显较低(p = 0.001),与光固化装置无关:临床意义:临床意义:使用白色诊断针头的透射照明技术可以在保持有效聚合的同时监测树脂渗透情况。
