Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2023:10.1007/s00253-023-12664-4. [PMID: 37395749 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-023-12664-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of salivary histatin 5 (Hst5) on Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) biofilms in vitro and in vivo and the possible mechanisms. In in vitro experiments, P. gingivalis biomass was determined by crystal violet staining. Polymerase chain reaction, scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to determine the Hst5 concentration. A search for potential targets was performed using transcriptomic and proteomic analyses. In vivo experimental periodontitis was established in rats to evaluate the effects of Hst5 on periodontal tissues. Experimental results showed that 25 µg/mL Hst5 effectively inhibited biofilm formation, and increased concentrations of Hst5 increased the inhibitive effect. Hst5 might bind to the outer membrane protein RagAB. A combination of transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed that Hst5 could regulate membrane function and metabolic processes in P. gingivalis, in which RpoD and FeoB proteins were involved. In the rat periodontitis model, alveolar bone resorption and inflammation levels in periodontal tissues were reduced by 100 µg/mL Hst5. This study showed that 25 µg/mL Hst5 inhibited P. gingivalis biofilm formation in vitro by changing membrane function and metabolic process, and RpoD and FeoB proteins might play important roles in this process. Moreover, 100 µg/mL Hst5 inhibited periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone loss in rat periodontitis via its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. KEY POINTS: • Anti-biofilm activity of histatin 5 on Porphyromonas gingivalis was investigated. • Histatin 5 inhibited Porphyromonas gingivalis biofilm formation. • Histatin 5 showed inhibitory effects on the occurrence of rat periodontitis.

Abstract
A low-shrinkage-stress (LSS), antibacterial and remineralizing nanocomposite was recently developed; however, validation of its long-term antibacterial potency in modulating human salivary-derived biofilm is an unmet need. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial effect of the bioactive LSS composite before and after aging in acidic solution for 90 days using a multi-species biofilm model, and to evaluate its cytotoxicity. The LSS composite consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether (TEG-DVBE), 3% dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and 20% nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP). Biofilm colony-forming units (CFU), lactic acid production, and confocal laser scanning microscopy (3D biofilm) were evaluated before and after three months of aging. Cytotoxicity was assessed against human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). The new LSS composite presented the lowest biofilm CFU, lactic acid and biofilm biomass, compared to controls (n = 6, p < 0.05). Importantly, the new composite exhibited no significant difference in antibacterial performance before and after 90-day-aging, demonstrating long-term antibacterial activity (p > 0.1). The LSS antibacterial and remineralizing composite presented a low cell viability at original extract that has increased with further dilutions. In conclusion, this study spotlighted that the new bioactive composite not only had a low shrinkage stress, but also down-regulated the growth of oral biofilms, reduced acid production, maintained antibacterial activity after the 90-day-aging, and did not compromise the cytocompatibility.

J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2021; 109:1124-1134. [PMID: 33386668 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.34775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2020] [Revised: 10/17/2020] [Accepted: 11/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
The aims are: (a) To develop the first low-shrinkage-stress nanocomposite with antibacterial and remineralization capabilities through the incorporation of dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP); (b) to investigate the effects of the new composite on biofilm inhibition, mechanical properties, shrinkage stress, and calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion releases. The low-shrinkage-stress resin consisted of urethane dimethacrylate and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether. Composite was formulated with 3% DMAHDM and 20% NACP. Mechanical properties, shrinkage stress, and degree of conversion were evaluated. Streptococcus mutans biofilm growth on composites was assessed. Ca and P ion releases were measured. The shrinkage stress of the low-shrinkage-stress composite containing 3% DMAHDM and 20% NACP was 36% lower than that of traditional composite control (p < 0.05), with similar degrees of conversion of 73.9%. The new composite decreased the biofilm colony-forming unit by 4 log orders and substantially reduced biofilm lactic acid production compared to control composite (p < 0.05). Incorporating DMAHDM to the low-shrinkage-stress composite did not adversely affect the Ca and P ion release. A novel bioactive nanocomposite was developed with low shrinkage stress, strong antibiofilm activity, and high levels of ion release for remineralization, without undermining the mechanical properties and degree of conversion.

Abstract
Recurrent dental caries is one of the main reasons for resin composite restoration failures. This study aimed to: (1) develop a bioactive, low-shrinkage-stress, antibacterial and remineralizing composite and evaluate the sustainability of its antibacterial effect against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) biofilms; and (2) evaluate the remineralization and cariostatic potential of the composite containing nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM), using dentin hardness measurement and a biofilm-induced recurrent caries model. The antibacterial and remineralizing low-shrinkage-stress composite consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether (TEG-DVBE), 3% DMAHDM and 20% NACP. S. mutans biofilm was used to evaluate antibiofilm activity, before and after 3 months of composite aging in acidic solution. Human dentin was used to develop a recurrent caries biofilm-model. Adding DMAHDM and NACP into low shrinkage-stress composite did not compromise the flexural strength. The low-shrinkage-stress composite with DMAHDM achieved substantial reductions in biofilm colony-forming units (CFU), lactic acid production, and biofilm biomass (p < 0.05). The low-shrinkage-stress DMAHDM+NACP composite exhibited no significant difference in antibacterial performance before and after 3 months of aging, demonstrating long-term antibacterial activity. Under S. mutans biofilm acidic attack, dentin hardness (GPa) was 0.24 ± 0.04 for commercial control, and 0.23 ± 0.03 for experimental control, but significantly higher at 0.34 ± 0.03 for DMAHDM+NACP group (p < 0.05). At an instrumental compliance of 0.33 μm/N, the polymerization shrinkage stress of the new composite was 36% lower than that of a traditional composite (p < 0.05). The triple strategy of antibacterial, remineralization and lower shrinkage-stress has great potential to inhibit recurrent caries and increase restoration longevity. Statement of Significance Polymerization shrinkage stress, masticatory load over time as well as biochemical degradation can lead to marginal failure and secondary caries. The present study developed a new low-shrinkage-stress, antibacterial and remineralizing dental nanocomposite. Polymerization shrinkage stress was greatly reduced, biofilm acid production was inhibited, and tooth dentin mineral and hardness were preserved. The antibacterial composite possessed a long-lasting antibiofilm effect against cariogenic bacteria S. mutans. The new bioactive nanocomposite has the potential to suppress recurrent caries at the restoration margins, protects tooth structures, and increases restoration longevity.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Nanotechnology has become a significant area of research focused mainly on increasing the antibacterial and mechanical properties of dental materials. The aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine and quantitatively analyze the current evidence for the addition of different nanoparticles into dental restorative materials, to determine whether their incorporation increases the antibacterial/antimicrobial properties of the materials. Materials and Methods: A literature search was performed in the Pubmed, Scopus, and Embase databases, up to December 2018, following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) guidelines for systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Results: A total of 624 papers were identified in the initial search. After screening the texts and applying inclusion criteria, only 11 of these were selected for quantitative analysis. The incorporation of nanoparticles led to a significant increase (p-value <0.01) in the antibacterial capacity of all the dental materials synthesized in comparison with control materials. Conclusions: The incorporation of nanoparticles into dental restorative materials was a favorable option; the antibacterial activity of nanoparticle-modified dental materials was significantly higher compared with the original unmodified materials, TiO2 nanoparticles providing the greatest benefits. However, the high heterogeneity among the articles reviewed points to the need for further research and the application of standardized research protocols.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endodontic treatment failures and recontamination remain a major challenge. The objectives of this study were to: (1) develop a new root canal sealer with potent and long-lasting antibiofilm effects using dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nanoparticles of silver (NAg); (2) determine the effects of incorporating DMAHDM and NAg each alone versus in combination on biofilm-inhibition efficacy; and (3) determine the effects on sealer paste flow, film thickness and sealing ability, compared to a commercial control sealer. METHODS Dual-cure endodontic sealers were formulated using DMAHDM mass fractions of 0%, 2.5% and 5%, and NAg mass fractions of 0.05%, 0.1% and 0.15%. The sealing ability of the sealers was measured using linear dye penetration method. Colony-forming units (CFU), live/dead assay, and polysaccharide production of biofilms grown on sealers were determined. RESULTS The sealer with 5% DMAHDM and 0.15% NAg yielded a flow of (22.18 ± 0.58) which was within the range of ISO recommendations and not statistically different from AH Plus control (23.3 ± 0.84) (p > 0.05). Incorporating DMAHDM and NAg did not negatively affect the film thickness and sealing properties (p > 0.05). The sealer with 5% DMAHDM and 0.15% NAg greatly reduced polysaccharide production by the biofilms, and decreased the biofilm CFU by nearly 6 orders of magnitude, compared to AH Plus and experimental controls (p < 0.05). SIGNIFICANCE A therapeutic root canal sealer was developed using 5% DMAHDM with biofilm-inhibition through contact-mediated mechanisms, plus 0.15% of NAg to release silver ions into the complex and difficult-to-reach root canal environment. The novel root canal sealer exerted potent antibiofilm effects and reduced biofilm CFU by 6 orders of magnitude without compromising sealer flow, film thickness and sealing ability. This method provided a promising approach to inhibit endodontic biofilms and prevent recurrent endodontic infections.

Abstract
Oral cavity incessantly encounters a plethora of microorganisms. Plaque biofilm-a major cause of caries, periodontitis and other dental diseases-is a complex community of bacteria or fungi that causes infection by protecting pathogenic microorganisms from external drug agents and escaping the host defense mechanisms. Antimicrobial nanoparticles are promising because of several advantages such as ultra-small sizes, large surface-area-to-mass ratio and special physical and chemical properties. To better summarize explorations of antimicrobial nanoparticles and provide directions for future studies, we present the following critical review. The keywords "nanoparticle," "anti-infective or antibacterial or antimicrobial" and "dentistry" were retrieved from Pubmed, Scopus, Embase and Web of Science databases in the last five years. A total of 172 articles met the requirements were included and discussed in this review. The results show that superior antibacterial properties of nanoparticle biomaterials bring broad prospects in the oral field. This review presents the development, applications and underneath mechanisms of antibacterial nanoparticles in dentistry including restorative dentistry, endodontics, implantology, orthodontics, dental prostheses and periodontal field.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES (1) To develop a novel bioactive root canal sealer with antibiofilm and remineralization properties using dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP); (2) investigate the effects on E. faecalis biofilm inhibition, sealer flow and sealing ability, compared with an epoxy-resin-based sealer AH Plus; and (3) investigate the calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion release from the sealers. METHODS A series of dual-cure endodontic sealers were formulated with DMAHDM and NACP at 5% and 20% by mass, respectively. Flow properties and sealing ability of the sealers were measured. Colony-forming units (CFU), live/dead assay, and polysaccharide production of biofilms on sealers were determined. Ca and P ion releases from the sealers were measured. RESULTS The new sealer containing 20% NACP and 5% DMAHDM yielded a paste flow of (28.99 ± 0.69) mm, within the range of ISO recommendations. The sealing properties of the sealer with 5% DMAHDM and 20% NACP were similar to a commercial control (p > 0.05). The sealer with DMAHDM decreased E. faecalis biofilm CFU by more than 4 orders of magnitude, compared to AH plus and experimental controls. The sealer with 20% NACP and 5% DMAHDM had relatively high levels of Ca and P ion release necessary for remineralization. CONCLUSIONS A new bioactive endodontic sealer was developed with strong antibiofilm activity against E. faecalis biofilms and high levels of Ca and P ion release for remineralization, without compromising the paste flow and sealing properties. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The bioactive antibacterial and remineralizing root canal sealer is promising to inhibit E. faecalis biofilms to prevent endodontic treatment failure and secondary endodontic infections, while releasing high levels of Ca and P ions that could remineralize and strengthen the tooth structures and potentially prevent future root fractures and teeth extractions.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common infectious disease characterized by loss of tooth-supporting structures, which eventually leads to tooth loss. The heavy burden of periodontal disease and its negative consequence on the patient's quality of life indicate a strong need for developing effective therapies. According to the World Health Organization, 10⁻15% of the global population suffers from severe periodontitis. Advances in understanding the etiology, epidemiology and microbiology of periodontal pocket flora have called for antibacterial therapeutic strategies for periodontitis treatment. Currently, antimicrobial strategies combining with polymer science have attracted tremendous interest in the last decade. This review focuses on the state of the art of antibacterial polymer application against periodontal pathogens and biofilms. The first part focuses on the different polymeric materials serving as antibacterial agents, drug carriers and periodontal barrier membranes to inhibit periodontal pathogens. The second part reviews cutting-edge research on the synthesis and evaluation of a new generation of bioactive dental polymers for Class-V restorations with therapeutic effects. They possess antibacterial, acid-reduction, protein-repellent, and remineralization capabilities. In addition, the antibacterial photodynamic therapy with polymeric materials against periodontal pathogens and biofilms is also briefly described in the third part. These novel bioactive and therapeutic polymeric materials and treatment methods have great potential to inhibit periodontitis and protect tooth structures.

Bonding durability, antibacterial activity and biofilm pH of novel adhesive containing antibacterial monomer and nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate. J Dent 2018; 81:91-101. [PMID: 30599165 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2018.12.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2018] [Revised: 12/21/2018] [Accepted: 12/26/2018] [Indexed: 10/27/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The dentin bonding often fails over time, leading to secondary caries and restoration failure. The objectives of this study were to develop an adhesive with dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP), and investigate the effects of storage in artificial saliva for six months on the bonding durability, antibacterial activity, ion release and biofilm pH properties for the first time. METHODS DMAHDM was added at 5% (by mass) to Scotchbond Primer and Adhesive (SBMP). NACP was added at 10%, 20%, and 30% to SBMP adhesive. Dentin bonding durability, antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans biofilms, and calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion liberation properties were investigated after 1 day and 6months of storage in artificial saliva. RESULTS Dentin bond strength (n = 50) had 25% loss after 6 months of aging for SBMP control. However, SBMP + DMAHDM+10NACP and SBMP + DMAHDM+20NACP showed no loss in bond strength after storage in artificial saliva for 6 months. The DMAHDM + NACP incorporation method dramatically reduced the biofilm metabolic activity and acid production, and decreased the biofilm CFU by four orders of magnitude, compared to SBMP control, even after 6 months of aging (p < 0.05). DMAHDM + NACP had long-lasting Ca and P ion releases, and raised the biofilm pH to 6.8, while the control group had a cariogenic biofilm pH of 4.5. CONCLUSIONS Incorporating DMAHDM + NACP in bonding agent yielded potent and long-lasting antibacterial activity and ions liberation ability, and much higher long-term dentin bond strength after 6-month of aging. The new bonding agent is promising to inhibit caries at the restoration margins and increase the resin-dentin bonding longevity. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The novel bioactive adhesive is promising to protect tooth structures from biofilm acids and secondary caries. NACP and DMAHDM have great potential for applications to a wide range of dental materials to reduce plaque and achieve therapeutic effects.

MATERIALS 2018; 11:ma11061013. [PMID: 29904023 PMCID: PMC6024984 DOI: 10.3390/ma11061013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2018] [Revised: 06/05/2018] [Accepted: 06/13/2018] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Polymeric nanoparticles were modified to exert antimicrobial activity against oral bacteria. Nanoparticles were loaded with calcium, zinc and doxycycline. Ions and doxycycline release were measured by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer and high performance liquid chromatography. Porphyromonas gingivalis, Lactobacillus lactis, Streptoccocus mutans, gordonii and sobrinus were grown and the number of bacteria was determined by optical density. Nanoparticles were suspended in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at 10, 1 and 0.1 mg/mL and incubated with 1.0 mL of each bacterial suspension for 3, 12, and 24 h. The bacterial viability was assessed by determining their ability to cleave the tetrazolium salt to a formazan dye. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Scheffe’s F (p < 0.05). Doxycycline doping efficacy was 70%. A burst liberation effect was produced during the first 7 days. After 21 days, a sustained release above 6 µg/mL, was observed. Calcium and zinc liberation were about 1 and 0.02 µg/mL respectively. The most effective antibacterial material was found to be the Dox-Nanoparticles (60% to 99% reduction) followed by Ca-Nanoparticles or Zn-Nanoparticles (30% to 70% reduction) and finally the non-doped nanoparticles (7% to 35% reduction). P. gingivalis, S. mutans and L. lactis were the most susceptible bacteria, being S. gordonii and S. sobrinus the most resistant to the tested nanoparticles.

Abstract
Infections are one of the main concerns of our era due to antibiotic-resistant infections and the increasing costs in the health-care sector. Within this context, antimicrobial polymers present a great alternative to combat these problems since their mechanisms of action differ from those of antibiotics. Therefore, the microorganisms' resistance to these polymeric materials is avoided. Antimicrobial polymers are not only applied in the health-care sector, they are also used in many other areas. This review presents different strategies that combine nanoscience and nanotechnology in the polymer world to combat contaminations from bacteria, fungi or algae. It focuses on the most relevant areas of application of these materials, viz. health, food, agriculture, and textiles.
