Relationship of solvent to the photopolymerization process, properties, and structure in model dentin adhesives.

The ratio of the double-bond content of monomer to polymer, i.e. degree of conversion (DC) has been used frequently as a convenient means of comparing the behavior and properties of dental composites and adhesives. The purpose of this investigation was to study the relationship of photopolymerization processes, bulk properties, and structure using model dentin adhesives cured in the presence of different ethanol content as an example. There was little difference in the DC of model BisGMA-based adhesives cured in the presence of ethanol concentrations ranging from 0 to 40 wt %, but there were substantial differences in the mechanical properties. Ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and modulus of elasticity decreased with an increase in ethanol content. Polymer structure was revealed by thermal behavior in the glass transition temperature (Tg) region; these measurements were obtained by modulated temperature differential scanning calorimetry (MTDSC) technology, which removes the competing irreversible effects associated with release of volatiles and residual curing. Glass transition temperature of model adhesives decreased substantially with an increase in ethanol content. The DC based on the quantity of remaining double bond has been used extensively to characterize and provide a relative assessment of the quality of dentin adhesives and dental composites. Since polymers differing in linearity, and therefore crosslink density, may have a similar degree of conversion, the measurement of monomer/polymer conversion does not necessarily provide complete representation of the quality or durability of the polymer structure.

Effect of 4-MET- and 10-MDP-based primers on resin bonding to titanium.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a 4-MET- and 10-MDP-based primer on the bond strength of two resin cements (SuperBond C&B, Sun Medical; Panavia Fluoro Cement, Kuraray) to titanium (Ti). Ti plates were treated with six experimental primers consisting of, respectively, 10-MDP and 4-MET in concentrations of 0.1, 1 and 10wt%, or were kept untreated (control). The highest tensile bond strength of Panavia Fluoro Cement to Ti was obtained when the Ti surface was pre-treated with 10wt% 10-MDP and was significantly higher than that when a lower concentrated 10-MDP-based primer or any 4-MET-based primer was used. On the contrary, no significant difference in tensile bond strength of SuperBond C&B was found for the untreated and six pre-treated Ti surfaces, although pre-treatment with each 10-MDP-based primer resulted in a higher tensile bond strength as compared to any 4-MET pre-treatment. Altogether, the data obtained strongly suggest that 10-MDP is effective to improve the adhesive performance of resin to titanium.

Effect of resin hydrophilicity on water-vapour permeability of dental adhesive films.

This study examined the water-vapour permeability of thin polymerized resin films fabricated from five co-monomer blends of increasing degrees of hydrophilicity, as measured by their Hoy's solubility parameters. Neat resin films were prepared from five experimental light-curable resins (n = 10). Each film was mounted in a Fisher permeability cup with 8 g of water placed inside the cup. The experiments were conducted in a modified twin-outlet desiccator connected to a vacuum pump in one outlet to permit a continuous airflow to encourage water evaporation. Weight losses by water evaporation were measured at 3, 6, 9, 24, 30, and 48 h by using an analytical balance. Additional resin films were examined by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) after immersion in ammoniacal silver nitrate. A significant correlation was observed between the cumulative water loss at 48 h and the Hoy's total cohesive energy density (delta(t)). Transmission electron microscopy revealed silver-filled channels along film peripheries and silver grains of decreasing dimensions toward the film centres in co-monomer blends 3, 4, and 5 of increasing hydrophilicity. Hydrophilic dentin adhesives polymerized in thin films are prone to water loss by evaporation. This probably accounts for the water droplets seen on the surface of vital-bonded dentin after the application of simplified dentin adhesives.
