Abstrakt: Purpose: To evaluate a new root coating material containing surface pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler for remineralization of demineralized dentin. Methods: The dentin was exposed on root surfaces of human third molars and demineralized by immersion in demineralization solution for 4 days. The demineralized dentin surface was divided into three areas. The center area was left untreated. The area on one side of the center area was coated with protective wax. The area on the other side was coated with one of four test materials: fluoride-containing S-PRG filler (PRG Barrier Coat: PR), fluoride-containing bonding agent (Bond Force: BF), fluoride-containing glass-ionomer cement as a positive control (Fuji IX EXTRA: EX), or non-fluoride-containing bonding agent as a negative control (Clearfil MegaBond: MB). The samples were stored in remineralization solution for 7 days, and then cut into two slices. The mineral changes, defined as variation in mineral loss between wax-coated area and the central untreated area, were measured in one slice by transversal microradiography. The fluoride concentration was measured in the other slice by p-particle-induced gamma/X-ray emission. Seven thin specimens (0.25-mm thickness) of each test material were used to determine fluoride ion release from the materials over 21 days. Results: The mineral changes were greatest for EX, followed by PR, with no difference between BF and MB (P> 0.05). Regarding the fluoride concentrations in dentin, there was no difference between EX and PR (P> 0.05). MB had the lowest value (P< 0.01). Fluoride release from EX was largest, followed by PR, with BF showing low fluoride release (P< 0.05). MB had no fluoride release. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
