To Evaluate The Effect Of Storage Medium On Fracture Resistance Of Reattached Tooth Fragments By Using Flowable Composite Resin

Abstract

AIM: To compare the fracture resistance of fractured incisor tooth fragments stored in four different storage media after reattachment. Materials and methods: Sixty freshly extracted human maxillary incisors were included in this study, Teeth were then sectioned, and fragments were stored in four groups of 15 teeth as, Group I - Stored in Open container, Group II - Stored in Tap water, Group III - Stored in Artificial Saliva and Group IV - Stored in Milk. The fragments were reattached using simple reattachment technique and tested on the Universal Testing Machine. Statistical analysis was performed using one‑way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey’s test. Results: There was statistically significant difference (P < 0.05) in fracture resistance values between the groups. The highest fracture resistance value was demonstrated by Group IV (milk), whereas least fracture resistance values were observed in Group I (open container) dry storage. Conclusion: Hydration of the fragment improve its fracture resistance significantly. Milk offers the highest fracture resistance values among the tested media.
