Abstract
Background/Aim. The objective of this study was to measure tooth cusps
deflection caused by polymerization shrinkage of a resin-based dental
material (RDM), in real-time using digital holographic interferometry (DHI),
in two groups of cavities restored with and without an additional wall.
Simultaneously, internal tooth mechanical behavior was monitored. Methods.
Standardized three class I cavities were prepared on third molar teeth. The
teeth were cut in two halves in the longitudinal plane, obtaining six
samples for the study (now with class II cavities), divided into two groups
(group G1 - with the additional wall, group G2 - without it) and mounted in
aluminum blocks. The cavities were filled with the RDM, cured with a light
emitting diode (LED) for 40 s from the occlusal direction, and monitored
during the curing and post-curing period using DHI. Data were analyzed using
student's t-test for independent samples and Anderson-Darling test, with an
alpha level of 0.05. Results. At the end of the examined period, the samples
from group G1 showed significantly increased tooth cusps deflection (t (10)
= 4.7; p = 0.001) compared to samples from group G2. Conclusion. Within the
limitations of this study, it was concluded that the presence of the
additional wall simulating a dental matrix-band, influenced increased and
prolonged tooth cusps deflection during the examined RDM polymerization
shrinkage.
