Contemp Clin Dent 2021; 12:32-36. [PMID: 33967535 PMCID: PMC8092095 DOI: 10.4103/ccd.ccd_474_19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2019] [Revised: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 05/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of conventional glass-ionomer cement (GIC) with chitosan-modified GIC (CH-GIC) and bioactive glass-modified GIC (BAG-GIC) as a function of time in varying proportions. Materials and Methods: CH-GIC was prepared by adding 10 v/v% (Group II) and 50 v/v% (Group III) CH to the commercial liquid of GIC. BAG-GIC was prepared by the addition of 10 wt% (Group IV) and 30 wt% (Group V) of BAG to the GIC powder. Conventional GIC was kept as Group I. Nine round-shaped samples measuring 2 mm thick and 5 mm in diameter were prepared for every experimental material. Human osteosarcoma cells were cultured and cell proliferation was assessed at 24, 48, and 72 h using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)- 2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, and cell differentiation was assessed at 7,14, and 21 days using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay. All experiments were done in triplicate. The data obtained were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey honestly significant difference post hoc multiple comparisons at 0.05 level significance. Results: Cell culture studies showed a significant increase in proliferative activity and ALP activity in Group II, III, IV, and V than Group I at all-time intervals (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in osteogenic potential between CH-GIC and BAG-GIC groups. Conclusion: The osteogenic potential was significantly higher in CH-GIC and BAG-GIC compared to conventional GIC.

Abstract
Synthetic calcium phosphates, despite their bioactivity, are brittle. Calcium phosphate- mullite composites have been suggested as potential dental and bone replacement materials which exhibit increased toughness. Aluminium, present in mullite, has however been linked to bone demineralisation and neurotoxicity: it is therefore important to characterise the materials fully in order to understand their in vivo behaviour. The present work reports the compositional mapping of the interfacial region of a calcium phosphate--20 wt% mullite biocomposite/soft tissue interface, obtained from the samples implanted into the long bones of healthy rabbits according to standard protocols (ISO-10993) for up to 12 weeks. X-ray micro-fluorescence was used to map simultaneously the distribution of Al, P, Si and Ca across the ceramic-soft tissue interface. A well defined and sharp interface region was present between the ceramic and the surrounding soft tissue for each time period examined. The concentration of Al in the surrounding tissue was found to fall by two orders of magnitude, to the background level, within ~35 μm of the implanted ceramic.

Abstract
Potassium fluorrichterite (KNaCaMg(5)Si(8)O(22)F(2)) glass-ceramics were modified by either increasing the concentration of calcium in the glass (GC5), or by the addition of P(2)O(5) to produce potassium fluorrichterite-fluorapatite (GP2). The solubility of the stoichiometric composition (GST), GC5 and GP2 were measured using the standard test described in ISO 6872:1995 (Dental Ceramics). Ion release profiles were determined for Si, Ca, Mg, Na, K and P using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and fluoride ion (F(-)) concentration was measured using an ion-selective electrode. The cytotoxicity of all compositions was assessed using cultured rat osteosarcoma cells (ROS, 17/2.8). Cell response was qualitatively assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and quantitatively using the Alamar blue assay. GST was the least soluble and also released the lowest concentration of ions following immersion in water. Of the modified compositions, GC5 demonstrated intermediate solubility but the greatest ion release while GP2 exhibited the highest solubility. This was most likely due to GC5 having the greatest proportion of residual glass following crystallisation. The mass loss exhibited by GP2 may have been due in part to the partial disintegration of the surface of specimens during solubility testing. SEM demonstrated that all compositions supported the growth of healthy ROS cells on their surfaces, and this data was further supported by the quantitative Alamar blue assay.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to demonstrate the synthesis of an experimental glass ionomer cement (GIC) by the non-hydrolytic sol-gel method and to evaluate its biocompatibility in comparison to a conventional glass ionomer cement (Vidrion R). Four polyethylene tubes containing the tested cements were implanted in the dorsal region of 15 rats, as follows: GI - experimental GIC and GII - conventional GIC. The external tube walls was considered the control group (CG). The rats were sacrificed 7, 21 and 42 days after implant placement for histopathological analysis. A four-point (I-IV) scoring system was used to graduate the inflammatory reaction. Regarding the experimental GIC sintherization, thermogravimetric and x-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated vitreous material formation at 110oC by the sol-gel method. For biocompatibility test, results showed a moderate chronic inflammatory reaction for GI (III), severe for GII (IV) and mild for CG (II) at 7 days. After 21 days, GI presented a mild reaction (II); GII, moderate (III) and CG, mild (II). At 42 days, GI showed a mild/absent inflammatory reaction (II to I), similar to GII (II to I). CG presented absence of chronic inflammatory reaction (I). It was concluded that the experimental GIC presented mild/absent tissue reaction after 42 days, being biocompatible when tested in the connective tissue of rats.

Abstract
Modified fluorcanasite glass-ceramics were produced by controlled two stage heat-treatment of as-cast glasses. Castability was determined using a spiral castability test and the lost-wax method. Specimens were cast into moulds formed from gypsum and phosphate bonded investments to observe their effect on the casting process, surface roughness, surface composition and biocompatibility. Both gypsum and phosphate bonded investments could be successfully used for the lost-wax casting of fluorcanasite glasses. Although the stoichiometric glass composition had the highest castability, all modified compositions showed good relative castability. X-ray diffraction showed similar bulk crystallisation for each glass, irrespective of the investment material. However, differences in surface crystallisation were detected when different investment materials were used. Gypsum bonded investment discs showed slightly improved in vitro biocompatibility than equivalent phosphate bonded investment discs under the conditions used.

Abstract
Fluorcanasite glass-ceramics were produced by controlled two stage heat-treatment of as-cast glasses. These glasses were modified from stoichiometric fluorcanasite composition by either adding P(2)O(5) or altering the molar ratios of Na(2)O and CaO. Commercial bioactive 45S5 Bioglass(R) was also prepared in-house to evaluate the relative in vitro biocompatibility of fluorcanasite glass-ceramics. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that cells had colonized the surfaces of fluorcanasite glass-ceramics to form a confluent sheet. Quantitative MTT assay results were in good agreement with the qualitative SEM observations. It was concluded that incorporation of excess calcium oxide or P(2)O(5) in stoichiometric glass composition improved in vitro biocompatibility. Controlled heat-treatment further improved the biological response of cultured bone cells to modified fluorcanasite glass-ceramics when compared with their parent glasses. Ion release and pH data suggested a strong correlation between solubility (in particular, Na ion release) and biocompatibility. Reduced solubility, Na ion release, and related pH effects appeared to be the principal mechanisms responsible for improvement in in vitro biocompatibility.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since their invention in the late 1960s, glass ionomer cements (GICs) have been used extensively in dentistry but recently they have also been utilised in ear nose and throat (ENT) surgery. Unfortunately, Al3+, a component of conventional ionomer glasses, has been linked to poor bone mineralisation and neurotoxicity. OBJECTIVE The aim of the research was to modify a commercial ionomer glass composition by substituting Al2O3 with Fe2O3. METHODS Glasses with the following molar compositions were fabricated: 4.5SiO2*3M2O3*XP2O5*3CaO*2CaF2 (M = Al or Fe, X = 0-1.5). The glasses were characterised using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Cements were prepared using a standard ratio of; 1 g of glass powder: 0.2 g of dried polyacrylic acid: 0.3 g of 10% tartaric acid solution. Cement formation was assessed using a Gilmore needle and in vitro biocompatibility was investigated for novel cement formulations. RESULTS XRF revealed that the Fe2O3-based glasses had Al2O3 contamination from the crucibles and also had undergone substantial F- losses. XRD gave peaks that corresponded to magnetite Fe3O4 (JCPDS # 19-629) in all compositions. Apatite Ca5(PO4)3(OH,F) (JCPDS # 15-876) was identified in P2O5 containing glasses. It was possible to fabricate cements from all of the Fe2O3-based ionomer glasses. Good in vitro biocompatibility was observed for the Fe2O3-based cements. CONCLUSION Ionomer glasses may be prepared by entirely replacing Al2O3 with Fe2O3. Cement setting times appeared to be related to P2O5 content. Fe2O3-based cements showed good in vitro biocompatibility.

Abstract
The effects of devitrification of an ionomer glass with a molar composition 4.5SiO(2).3Al(2)O(3).1.5P(2)O(5).3CaO.2CaF(2) on cement formation and in vitro biocompatibility were investigated. Differential thermal analysis was used to study the phase evolution in the glass, and to determine the heat treatments for production of glass-ceramics. X-ray diffraction patterns from glass frit heat-treated at 750 degrees C for 2h contained peaks corresponding to apatite (JCPDS 15-876), whereas for samples heat-treated at 950 degrees C for 2h apatite and mullite (JCPDS 15-776) were the major phases detected. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed that apatite and apatite-mullite phases were present after heat treatments at 750 degrees C and 950 degrees C respectively. Glass and glass-ceramics were ground to prepare <45microm powders and glass ionomer cements were produced using a ratio of 1g powder: 0.2g PAA: 0.3g 10% m/v tartaric acid solution in water. In vitro biocompatibility was evaluated using cultured rat osteosarcoma (ROS) cells. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that cells colonised the surfaces of cements prepared using untreated ionomer glass and glass crystallised to form apatite (750 degrees C/2h). However, quantitative evaluation using MTT and total protein assays indicated that more cell growth occurred in the presence of cements prepared using ionomer glasses crystallised to apatite than cements prepared using untreated glass. The least cell growth and respiratory activity was observed on cements made with crystallised glass containing both apatite and mullite. It was concluded that the controlled devitrification of ionomer glasses could be used to produce GIC bone cements with improved biocompatibility.
