Water cooled low speed diamond saw

Manufactured by Buehler
Sourced in United States

The water-cooled low-speed diamond saw is a laboratory equipment designed for precision cutting of materials. It utilizes a diamond-tipped blade and a water-cooling system to facilitate controlled and accurate cuts. The core function of this saw is to provide a safe and efficient way to section samples for further analysis or preparation.

A detailed description of all methods used is included in the supplementary information. Statistical analysis methods are described in each section.
Human teeth and saliva used in this study were obtained according to University of Toronto Human Ethics Protocol #25793. Teeth (3rd molars) were extracted and were handled as before [35 ], stored in tap water at −20°C until use. Cutting of tooth structure was performed with a water-cooled low-speed diamond saw (Buehler Ltd., Lake Bluff, IL). Enamel coronal edges were removed, and coronal dentin slabs were taken from within 2 mm of the cervical line plane before using for various experiments below. Photopolymerization of resins was carried out with a plasma arc device (Sapphire Plus Plasma Arc Curing System, Dent Mat, Santa Maria, CA) for 10 s (adhesive layer) or 20 s (per 1 mm layer of resin composite) at a distance of approximately 1 mm and a minimum intensity of 1730 mW cm−2 as verified by the device’s internal radiometer [17 (link)].

Immature Premolar Root Dentin Preparation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ten immature human mandibular premolars previously stored in 0.1% thymol at 4°C were used within 6 months of extraction after obtaining Indiana university Institutional Review Board approval to use human teeth (IRB number; 1305011353). The inclusion criteria were the absence of caries, root cracks, or restorations. Furthermore, each immature tooth had to have at least a 1 mm-diameter opening at the apical foramen with two-thirds of the root formed. Each tooth was decoronated, and two 4 mm root dentin cylinders were obtained from the coronal and middle thirds of each root utilizing a water-cooled low-speed diamond saw (Buehler, Lake Bluff, IL, USA). The pulp tissue was extirpated with a barbed broach without touching the root canal surface. Four specimens were obtained from each root by sectioning each cylinder longitudinally across the maximum diameter of the root canal into two specimens without touching the root canal dentin surface.

Preparation of Dentin Films from Third Molars

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Non-carious, un-erupted human third molars were collected without associated patient identifiers, and the collection protocol was determined not to be human subject research (NHSR 12-50) by the University Adult Heath Sciences Institutional Review Board. The teeth were stored in 0.96% PBS containing 0.002% sodium azide at 4 °C before use. Roots of teeth were removed 2–3 mm below the cementoenamel junction using a water-cooled low-speed diamond saw (Buehler, Lake Bluff, IL, USA). The remaining tooth was then attached to an aluminum disc by using cyanoacrylate adhesive (Zapit, Dental Ventures of America, Corona, CA, USA). The occlusal 1/3 of the crown and surrounding enamel was removed to result in a dentin block. The 10-µm-thick dentin films were cut from the superficial dentin portion on the block using a microtome (Leica SM2500S, Deerfield, IL, USA). Fifty dentin films were acquired from each tooth for a total of around 400 films with a size of approximately 6 mm × 5 mm when pooled together. The films were stored at 4 °C in 0.96% PBS containing 0.002% sodium azide.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
