Abstract:
The resin-coating technique, in which exposed dentin surfaces are covered using a thin-film coating material, was approved in the Japanese public health insurance system in December 2019. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical cases treated using the resin-coating technique with Hybrid Coat II (HC II) after tooth preparation on vital teeth. A total of 134 cases from patients who visited nine dental clinics were examined from the clinical records. Clinical signs and symptoms of cases before, during, and after treatment and at the time of recall were evaluated. The resin-coating was applied as either a single application with HC II (86.6%) or a combined application of HC II and a flowable resin composite (13.4%). The success rate without any symptoms of sensivity to cold water was 92.5% (124 cases). The current results indicated that the resin-coating with HC II is a reliable treatment for the tooth preparation of vital teeth.

In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a...
