Ítem Contribution of Root Canal Treatment to the Fracture Resistance of Dentin(Elsevier Inc., 2019-01-01) Yan W.; Montoya C.; Øilo M.; Ossa A.; Paranjpe A.; Zhang H.; Arola D.D.; Yan W.; Montoya C.; Øilo M.; Ossa A.; Paranjpe A.; Zhang H.; Arola D.D.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Producción; Materiales de IngenieríaIntroduction: Although the strength and toughness of dentin decrease with age, no study has explored if restorative treatments are a contributing factor. Methods: Multiple extracted teeth were obtained from randomly selected donors and categorized according to donor age and prior root canal treatment. The microstructure and chemical composition of radicular dentin were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, respectively, and the strength was evaluated in 4-point flexure to failure. Data were compared using the Student t test. Results: Dentin from the root canal–restored teeth exhibited significantly lower strength (P <.05) than tissue from age- and donor-matched unrestored tooth pairs. Although there was no significant difference in the mineral-to-collagen ratio between the 2 groups, dentin obtained from the root canal–treated teeth exhibited more extensive collagen cross-linking and lower tubule occlusion ratios than the unrestored tooth pairs. Conclusions: There is a decrease in the strength of radicular dentin with aging, but prior root canal treatment increases the extent of degradation. © 2018 American Association of EndodontistsÍtem Deformation behaviour of aged coronal dentin(Blackwell Munksgaard, 2018-06-01) Montoya; C.; Arola; D.; Ossa; E.A.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Producción; Materiales de IngenieríaObjective: This study aimed to identify the changes in the time-dependent deformation response of coronal dentin with ageing and its relationship with changes in chemical composition. Background: The structural behaviour of dentin with ageing is affected by changes in the density and diameter of its dentinal tubules (ie porosity), as well as changes in chemical composition throughout the tooth. However, little is known about the time-dependent deformation behaviour of aged dentin and the importance of its hierarchical structure and variations in chemical composition. Materials and methods: The spherical indentation response of aged coronal dentin was analysed in the outer, middle and inner regions, and its time-dependent deformation response was modelled in terms of its microstructure and chemical composition using a model recently proposed for young dentin. Results: The viscous deformation behaviour of aged dentin followed a power-law response with a decrease in the stress exponent when compared to young dentin. These results can be explained by cross-linking of the collagen present in the tissue. Conclusion: A decrease in the deformation ability of aged dentin was found. This behaviour could be a result of a dissolution process and reprecipitation of the minerals present in intertubular dentin into the dentinal tubules. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons A/S and The Gerodontology Association.

Departamento de Ingeniería de Producción; Materiales de IngenieríaIntroduction: The incidence of vertical root fracture in endodontically treated teeth increases with patient age. This study evaluated the microstructure, chemical composition, and mechanical properties of radicular dentin as a function of aging. Methods: Single-rooted teeth were obtained from adult donors ranging from age 15 to older than 80 years. Beams were extracted from the middle third of the root and subjected to 4-point flexure to failure to evaluate strength of dentin in terms of donor age. Based on the strength distribution, the fatigue strength of root tissue from young (<= 30 years) and old (>= 55 years) donor teeth was evaluated via cyclic flexure loading. The microstructure and chemical composition of radicular dentin from the 2 groups were evaluated as a function of distance from the root apex using microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. Results: The strength decreased with age by approximately 25 MPa per decade, which resulted in a significant difference (P <= .0001) between the young (199 +/- 36 MPa) and old (122 +/- 11 MPa) groups. There was also a significant difference (P <= .0001) in fatigue strength between the young and old age groups. Both the mineral-to-collagen ratio and degree of cross-linking increased with age, with the largest changes identified in the apical and middle thirds, respectively. Conclusions: There is a reduction in the damage tolerance of radicular dentin with increasing age. This degradation appears to result from changes in the microstructure, corresponding chemical composition, and increase in collagen cross-linking with age, and is most severe near the root apex.Ítem Time dependent deformation behavior of dentin(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-04-01) Montoya C; Arola D; Ossa EA; Montoya C; Arola D; Ossa EA; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Producción; Materiales de IngenieríaObjective The viscoelastic behavior of dentin and its ability to undergo time dependent deformation are considered to be important to oral functions and its capacity to resist fracture. There are spatial variations in the microstructure of dentin within the crown, which could be important to the viscous behavior. However, a spatially resolved description for the viscoelastic behavior of coronal dentin has not been reported. Methods In this investigation spherical indentations were made in three regions of coronal dentin including the outer, middle and inner regions. Power law relations were developed to quantitatively describe the stress-strain responses of the tissue. Results Results showed that the deformation behavior was strongly dependent on the composition (mineral to collagen ratio) and microstructure (tubule density), which contributed to an increase in the rate of viscous deformation with increasing proximity to the pulp. Conclusions A model accounting for spatial variations in composition and microstructure was developed to describe the steady-state time dependent deformation behavior of coronal dentin, and a good agreement was found with the experimental results. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd
