Marginal Microbial Infiltration in Coronary Double Sealing: 30-Day In Vitro Study

A 30-day in vitro study by Lauren Fernanda Parron evaluated microbial coronal leakage using human premolars. The experiment tested provisional restorative cements Bioplic®, Maxxion R®, and Coltosol® in various combinations against Enterococcus faecalis. Results showed infiltration in all groups, with some occurring as early as 5 days.

Use Cases

• Compare the leakage performance of different provisional cement combinations based on the described experimental groups.
• Analyze the time-to-infiltration patterns for different material groups over the 30-day observation period.
• Model the failure rates of coronal sealing materials based on the reported infiltration percentages.
• Validate in vitro testing methodologies for dental material evaluation based on the described experimental setup.

Strengths

• Experimental results include specific infiltration percentages, such as 66% for groups I and IV.
• The study design includes a 30-day observation period with readings performed every 24 hours.
• Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test with a defined significance level (p < 0.05).

Limitations

• Row count and specific column-level data are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• The dataset description lacks details on sample size per group and raw measurement data.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
