摘要:
Lie, T. Gusberti, F. Dental plaque morphology as revealed by direct observation and by replicating techniques.The ability of four elastomer impression materials to reproduce details of bacterial plaque structures was studied by comparing areas of the replica models with corresponding areas of the replicated plaque. Plaque was grown on hydroxyapatite splint segments for 48 hours and replica models were made from three different resins. One of the resins, a methacrylate material, was not suited for this purpose due to its content of spherical particles. The polysulfide and polyether impression materials reacted with the heat curing epoxy resin, and less satisfactory results were obtained with cold curing epoxy resin. Best results were obtained by a combined use of low viscosity silicone impression materials and cold or heat curing epoxy resins as model materials. However, a considerable loss of detail occurred in the replica models compared with observations of plaque directly on splint surfaces. Outlines of individual bacteria could sometimes be seen in the models, but generally several cells seemed to fuse, and appeared lie small globular structures where cells and pellicle were difficult to distinguish. The bacterial colonization started near the gingival border of the surface, initiated by attachment of individual bacteria to the pellicle surface.
