[PMID: 34565584 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2021.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2021] [Revised: 06/11/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Synthesize novel epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) methacrylate monomers with the ability to copolymerize with dental methacrylate resins. METHODS EGCG was reacted with 1/3 (E33), 2/3 (E67) and 1 (E100) molar equivalents of methacyloyl chloride introducing three degrees of polymerizablility. EGCG-methacrylates were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). E33, E67, E100 and neat EGCG were incorporated into TEGDMA at 0.5-20% ratios (m/m). Copolymers were tested for degree of conversion (%DC), EGCG release, gel content (%GC), degree of swelling (%DS), flexural properties and bacterial viability (Streptococcus mutans, baseline/30-days). Neat TEGDMA and TEGDMA passively loaded with EGCG (E0) were used as controls. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA, Tukey, and Dunnett's method (α=5%). Two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni were used to investigate factor interaction. RESULTS FTIR/NMR confirmed synthesis of desired compounds. All of E100 incorporated ratios had %DC similar to TEGDMA. Remaining groups had reduction in %DC at 2% in E0, 10% in E33 and 20% in E67 ratios. EGCG was stable within ECGC-methacrylate copolymers. Release of EGCG from E0 significantly increased with higher EGCG ratios. Except for E100, higher EGCG or EGCG-methacrylate ratios led to decreased %CG and %DS. At baseline, E0 had the lowest bacterial survival rates (1-10% survival) at all ratios compared to E33, E67, E100, and neat TEGDMA. However, E33, E67 and E100 still had statistically lower survival rates (7-53%) compared with neat TEGDMA. After 30-days, all compounds had similar survival rates for all ratios, which were lower than that of neat TEGDMA. SIGNIFICANCE Demonstration of methacrylate functionalized EGCG- with inherited antibacterial activity for improved restoration longevity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of additives on the water sorption characteristics of Bis-GMA based copolymers and composites containing TEGDMA, CH3Bis-GMA or CF3Bis-GMA. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifteen experimental copolymers and corresponding composites were prepared combining Bis-GMA and TEGDMA, CH3Bis-GMA or CF3Bis-GMA, with aldehyde or diketone (24 and 32 mol%) totaling 30 groups. For composites, barium aluminosilicate glass and pyrogenic silica was added to comonomer mixtures. Photopolymerization was effected by 0.2 wt% each of camphorquinone and N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine. Specimen densities in dry and water saturated conditions were obtained by Archimedes' method. Water sorption and desorption were evaluated in a desorption-sorption-desorption cycle. Water uptake (%WU), water desorption (%WD), equilibrium solubility (ES; µg/mm³), swelling (f) and volume increase (%V) were calculated using appropriate equations. RESULTS All resins with additives had increased %WU and ES. TEGDMA-containing systems presented higher %WU, %WD, ES, f and %V values, followed by resins based on CH3Bis-GMA and CF3Bis-GMA. CONCLUSIONS Aldehyde and diketone led to increases in the water sorption characteristics of experimental resins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore possible enhancement of the mechanical properties of resin composites by aligning the filler particles. METHODS The resin for the composites consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate (HDDMA) mixed in the ratio of 90 to 10; the filler was silica-zirconia in two particle sizes, 1.7 microns (P50), which was mixed with the resin in the volume fractions of 29 and 48 vol%, and 0.7 micron (Z100), which was mixed with the resin in the volume fractions of 37 and 57 vol%. Particle alignment was obtained by applying a 60 Hz AC electric field across the composite before the resin was photopolymerized. The stress-strain behavior and the elastic modulus of the hardened composite were measured along the alignment axis in compression. RESULTS The elastic moduli of the aligned composites increased by as much as 20%, and the maximum stress sustainable in compression before significant deformation occurred was elevated. An electric field strength of the order of 1 kV mm-1 was required to obtain sufficient alignment. SIGNIFICANCE Besides conferring a structure to resin composites that is more like that of the natural tooth, particle alignment increased some of the mechanical properties and may have improved durability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the investigation was to determine the surface free-energy components of potentially adhesive monomer mixtures. METHODS Four liquids with known components of surface free-energy were used as reference. Small drops of the liquids were placed on the polished surfaces of four types of solid (metal, porcelain, resin composite and hydrocarbon), and the contact angles were measured. By means of the fundamental equations for wetting, the three components of the surface free-energy of the four solids were calculated. Small drops of various monomeric mixtures were then placed on the four solid surfaces, and on the basis of the previously calculated components of surface free-energy of the solids, the surface energy characteristics of the monomeric mixtures were determined. The relationships between contact angles and composition, and between surface tension and composition, were studied by regression analyses. Comparisons between values were carried out by means of Neuman-Keuls' multiple range test at a level of statistical significance of p = 0.05. RESULTS Statistically significant differences between the monomeric mixtures as regards the wetting of the four solids were observed. These differences reflected differences in the acid or base component of the surface free-energy of the monomers. In particular, monomeric mixtures containing HEMA, MAN or 4-META exhibited a significant acid component of the surface free-energy. SIGNIFICANCE Knowledge of the surface free-energy components of monomers throws light on the mechanisms associated with the adhesion of resin composites, including resin cements. A better understanding of the interfacial interactions may act as guide in a research aimed at developing resin materials of increased adhesion to metal, porcelain or resin composite.

Abstract
The degree of evaporation from experimental resins containing 0.40 mol% propanal or diacetyl was determined over a 6-month period at 60 degrees C. From the results the maximum evaporation possible, M infinity was calculated for each resin and was found to vary between 0.28% and 7.51% by weight. At low contents of propanal or diacetyl, M infinity 1 remained unchanged as compared with the control resins without additive. At higher contents of additive, M infinity increased significantly. In resins based on BisGMA and TEGDMA, propanal was retained to a lesser extent than diacetyl. In resins based on UEDMA and HEMA, propanal was retained to a greater extent than diacetyl. This study confirms that propanal and diacetyl become bound in the polymer structure, and theories as to the reaction mechanisms are presented.

Abstract
The present review outlines the history of monomers used in resin composites, motivates further development, and highlights recent and ongoing research reported in the field of dental monomer systems. The monomer systems of most present-day resin composites are based on BisGMA, developed some 40 years ago, or derivatives of BisGMA. In the remaining resin composites, urethane monomers or oligomers are used as the basis of the monomer system. The main deficiencies of current resin composites are polymerization shrinkage and insufficient wear resistance under high masticatory forces. Both factors are highly influenced by the monomer system, and considerable efforts are being made around the world to reduce or eliminate these undesirable properties. The use of fluoride-releasing monomer systems, some of which are under investigation, has been suggested to mitigate the negative effects of marginal gaps formed in consequence of polymerization shrinkage. The very crux of the problem has also been approached with the synthesis of potentially low-shrinking/non-shrinking resin composites involving ring opening or cyclopolymerizable monomers. By the use of additives with a supposed chain transfer agent function, monomer systems have been formulated that improve the degree of conversion of methacrylate double bonds and mechanical properties. Many promising monomer systems have been devised, the implementation of which may be expected to improve the longevity of resin composite fillings and expand the indications for resin composites.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of propanal and diacetyl addition on the quantity of remaining double bonds of chemically cured dental resins. Propanal (propionaldehyde) or diacetyl (2,3-butanedione) was added to monomer mixtures, which were then made chemically curable. The monomer mixtures were varied with respect to content of propanal or diacetyl. Addition of propanal or diacetyl to chemically curable resins resulted in a decrease in the quantity of remaining double bonds from 19.6% to 1.9% and from 19.6% to 11.4%, respectively. A negative correlation of statistical significance was found between content of propanal and quantity of remaining double bonds, while the relationship between content of diacetyl and quantity of remaining double bonds was found not to be linear. Propanal was equally effective in reducing the quantity of remaining double bonds in chemically cured and in the light cured resins studied previously. As regards diacetyl, a more pronounced effect on quantity of remaining double bonds was noted for light cured resins as compared with chemically cured resins. The most likely common reaction mechanism of propanal and diacetyl seemed to be that of chain transfer reactions. Furthermore, analysis of the data indicated a possible additional photoinitiating function of diacetyl.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to determine the effect of diacetyl or propanal activities: 1) on the in vitro wear of 22 experimental resin composites; and 2) on the Wallace indentation hardness of the unfilled resins. The objective was to examine the correlation between wear, hardness, and quantity of remaining double bonds (determined previously). METHODS Diacetyl or propanal agents were added in varying concentrations to monomer mixtures. The resins were made light-curing and those used for measurement of wear were loaded with filter. The results were analyzed by ANOVA and Newman-Keuls' multiple range tests. RESULTS In the composite systems, adding diacetyl or propanal resulted in decreased in vitro wear. The quantity of remaining double bonds in the dental polymers with these additives was also reduced. Their effect on Wallace indentation depth was less clear-cut. Low concentrations of additives decreased indentation depth of the unfilled materials, whereas high concentrations increased indentation depth. If it assumed that differences in the polymer have a major influence on the wear when the filter content and particle matrix interface are kept constant, then the hardness data on the unfilled resin can be used to correlate property changes of the polymer in the composite. A three-dimensional regression analysis found that in vitro wear decreased with decreasing Wallace indentation depth and decreasing quantity of remaining double bonds. SIGNIFICANCE Addition of diketone or monoaldehyde to resin monomers may provide a means of increasing wear resistance of composites and allow their use in stress-bearing areas.

Abstract
The clinical performance of dental composites has been significantly improved over the past decade through modifications in formulation that include: using more stable polymerization promoters for greater color stability; incorporating high concentrations of finely ground fillers to produce adequate strength and excellent wear resistance while retaining translucency; adding radiopacifying agents for improved diagnostics; and utilizing dentin adhesives. However, there are problems which limit the use of composites, especially in posterior teeth. The materials remain very technique-sensitive, due to the extensive contraction which accompanies polymerization and negatively influences marginal sealing. In addition, the materials are generally considered to have inadequate mechanical properties and wear resistance in contact areas to serve as total replacements for amalgams. Current efforts are focusing on several areas, including the development of non- or minimally-shrinking dental composites containing spiro-orthocarbonates as additives to dimethacrylates or epoxy-base resins, and the production of alternative filler materials for ideal wear resistance and esthetics. This paper reviews the composition and characteristics of current dental composites, as well as recent areas of study.

Abstract
Improved mechanical properties of resin composites have been reported to be a consequence of the addition of aldehyde to the resins. The objective of the present study was to examine whether this improvement could be attributed to an increased degree of conversion of double bonds. For this purpose, propanal was added to monomer mixtures, which were then made light-curing. The monomer mixtures were varied with respect to monomer composition and content of propanal. The quantity of remaining double bonds was determined by means of transmission infrared spectra of the resins recorded before and after wet or dry storage for one week. The addition of propanal resulted in a decrease in the quantity of remaining double bonds by as much as 89% as compared with the mixtures without propanal. Negative correlations of statistical significance were found between the content of propanal and quantity of remaining double bonds in BISGMA:TEGDMA-based as well as in UEDMA:HEMA-based resins for both modes of storage. Significant negative correlations were found between the quantity of remaining double bonds and the previously determined mechanical properties.

Abstract
Strength parameters greatly influence the selection of luting agents. This study compared the compressive and diametral tensile strengths of six classes of new adhesive luting agents (ALAs) with zinc phosphate as the controls. The 11 materials tested were prepared according to the manufacturers' instructions for use as luting agents. Mean compressive and diametral strengths and standard errors were calculated for each luting agent (n = 10). Analysis of variance was computed (p < 0.0011) and multiple comparisons tests were performed. Compressive strengths varied from 41.5 MPa for a hydroxyapatite ALA to 178.5 MPa for a composite resin ALA. Diametral tensile strengths ranged from 8.1 MPa for a hydroxyapatite ALA to 45.1 MPa for a composite resin ALA. Conventional powder-liquid glass ionomer ALAs, an encapsulated glass ionomer ALA, a composite resin-glass ionomer hybrid ALA, and the composite resin ALAs demonstrated significantly greater compressive and diametral strengths than the zinc phosphate cements.
