Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133749.

Abstract
The study explored the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and hemostatic properties of chitosan microflowers (CMF) in sponge form. The main objective was to enhance the preparation of CMF by employing varying quantities of calcium chloride (CaCl2) and tripolyphosphate (TPP). CMF was then combined with gelatin (GE) in different proportions to produce three sponge samples: CMF0@GE, CMF1@GE, and CMF2@GE. The CMF had a morphology like that of a flower and produced surfaces with a porous sponge-like structure. The antibacterial activity, as determined by the zone of inhibition (ZOI), increased with greater doses of CMF. Among the tested samples, CMF2@GE had the greatest activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecium. CMF2@GE successfully suppressed biofilm formation, decreased clotting time to an average of 212.67 s, and exhibited excellent biocompatibility by preserving over 90 % viability of human skin fibroblast cells at dosages below 100 μg/mL. The results indicated that gelatin sponges filled with CMF have considerable promise as flexible medical instruments for wound healing and infection control.

Abstract
Resin-based dental materials have been one of the ideal choices among various materials in the treatment of dental caries. However, resin-based dental materials still have some drawbacks, such as the lack of inherent antibacterial activity. Extensive research has been conducted on the use of novel quaternary ammonium monomers (QAMs) to impart antibacterial activity to dental materials. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in quaternary ammonium monomers (QAMs) for dental applications. The current progress and limitations of QAMs are discussed based on the evolution of their structures. The functional diversification and enhancement of QAMs are presented. QAMs have the potential to provide long-term antibacterial activity in dental resin composites, thereby prolonging their service life. However, there is a need to balance antibacterial performance with other material properties and the potential impact on the oral microbiome and general health. Finally, the necessity for further scientific progress in the development of novel quaternary ammonium monomers and the optimization of dental resin formulations is emphasized.

Abstract
In this study, two novel quaternary ammonium urethane-dimethacrylates (QAUDMAs) were designed for potential use as comonomers in antibacterial dental composite restorative materials. QAUDMAs were synthesized via the reaction of 1,3-bis(1-isocyanato-1-methylethyl)benzene with 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl-2-decylhydroxyethylmethylammonium bromide (QA10+TMXDI) and 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl-2-dodecylhydroxyethylmethylammonium bromide (QA12+TMXDI). Their compositions with common dental dimethacrylates comprising QAUDMA 20 wt.%, urethane-dimethacrylate monomer (UDMA) 20 wt.%, bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) 40 wt.%, and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) 20 wt.%, were photocured. The achieved copolymers were characterized for their physicochemical and mechanical properties, including their degree of conversion (DC), glass transition temperature (Tg), polymerization shrinkage (S), water contact angle (WCA), flexural modulus (E), flexural strength (FS), hardness (HB), water sorption (WS), and water leachability (WL). The antibacterial activity of the copolymers was characterized by the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The achieved results were compared to the properties of a typical dental copolymer comprising UDMA 40 wt.%, Bis-GMA 40 wt.%, and TEGDMA 20 wt.%. The introduction of QAUDMAs did not deteriorate physicochemical and mechanical properties. The WS and WL increased; however, they were still satisfactory. The copolymer comprising QA10+TMXDI showed a higher antibacterial effect than that comprising QA12+TMXDI and that of the reference copolymer.

Novel Bioactive Nanocomposites Containing Calcium Fluoride and Calcium Phosphate with Antibacterial and Low-Shrinkage-Stress Capabilities to Inhibit Dental Caries. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:991. [PMID: 37760093 PMCID: PMC10525142 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10090991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Composites are commonly used for tooth restorations, but recurrent caries often lead to restoration failures due to polymerization shrinkage-stress-induced marginal leakage. The aims of this research were to: (1) develop novel low-shrinkage-stress (L.S.S.) nanocomposites containing dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM) with nanoparticles of calcium fluoride (nCaF2) or amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) for remineralization; (2) investigate antibacterial and cytocompatibility properties. METHODS Nanocomposites were made by mixing triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether with urethane dimethacrylate containing 3% DMADDM, 20% nCaF2, and 20% NACP. Flexural strength, elastic modulus, antibacterial properties against Streptococcus mutans biofilms, and cytotoxicity against human gingival fibroblasts and dental pulp stem cells were tested. RESULTS Nanocomposites with DMADDM and nCaF2 or NACP had flexural strengths matching commercial composite control without bioactivity. The new nanocomposite provided potent antibacterial properties, reducing biofilm CFU by 6 logs, and reducing lactic acid synthesis and metabolic function of biofilms by 90%, compared to controls (p < 0.05). The new nanocomposites produced excellent cell viability matching commercial control (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Bioactive L.S.S. antibacterial nanocomposites with nCaF2 and NACP had excellent bioactivity without compromising mechanical and cytocompatible properties. The new nanocomposites are promising for a wide range of dental restorations by improving marginal integrity by reducing shrinkage stress, defending tooth structures, and minimizing cariogenic biofilms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study assumed that the quaternary ammonium urethane-dimethacrylate derivative (QAUDMA-m, where m was 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and corresponded to the number of carbon atoms in the N-alkyl substituent) can be used to achieve copolymers with high mechanical performance and antibacterial activity. METHODS Photocured copolymers of bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) 40 wt%, QAUDMA-m 40 wt%, and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) 20 wt% (BG:QAm:TEG) were characterized by the degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (FS), flexural modulus (E), hardness (HB), and antibacterial properties (the number of bacteria colonies adhered to copolymer surfaces and inhibition zone diameter (IZD)) against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Reference copolymers of Bis-GMA, urethane-dimethacrylate monomer (UDMA), and TEGDMA (BG:TEG and BG:UD:TEG) were also characterized. RESULTS The DC of BG:QAm:TEGs ranged from 0.59 to 0.68, HB from 83.84 to 153.91 MPa, FS from 50.81 to 74.47 MPa, and E from 1986.74 to 3716.68 MPa. The number of S. aureus and E. coli bacteria adhered to BG:QAm:TEG surfaces was from 0 (no bacteria observed) to 6.47 and 4.99 log(CFU/mL), respectively. IZD was from 10 and 5 mm (no inhibition zone) to 23 and 21 mm, respectively. Three copolymers: BG:QA8:TEG, BG:QA10:TEG, and BG:QA12:TEG had similar or better mechanical properties than the reference copolymers, but unlike them, they showed high antibacterial activity against both bacteria strains. SIGNIFICANCE The obtained copolymers can offer a good, mechanically efficient, bioactive alternative to BG:TEG and BG:UD:TEG copolymers. The use of such materials can help to make progress in dental health care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to compare the biological and mechanical properties of a novel dual-cure, resin-modified calcium silicate material, Theracal PT® (TP), with those of Theracal LC® (TL) and BiodentineTM (BD). METHODS The cell counting kit-8 was used on human dental pulp cells to test cell the viability of the three materials. Antibacterial activity of TP, TL, and BD against Enterococcus faecalis was investigated under anaerobic conditions. The ability of the materials to support odontogenic differentiation was studied by examining the relative gene expression of osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), and Collagen I (ColI) using real-time polymerase chain reaction. For mechanical property tests, microhardness was evaluated using the Vickers microhardness (VHN) test, and the bond strength to the resin was evaluated using a shear bond test machine. RESULTS There was no significant difference in cell viability between TL and TP after 48 h, and BD showed the highest cell viability, while TP showed the highest antibacterial effect. At the 12-h time point, there was no significant difference in ColI and OCN expression between BD and TP, but TP showed a higher expression of OPN than BD. However, at the 48-h time point, ColI and OCN showed higher levels of expression for BD than for TP and TL. At the same time point, only OPN had a higher diffusion for TP than for BD. TP demonstrated a VHN of approximately 30-35. This value was higher than that of TL and lower than that of BD. In contrast to VHN, the shear bond strength to resin was significantly higher for TL and TP than for BD. CONCLUSION TP showed lower biocompatibility than BD but higher OPN expression and antibacterial effects than BD and TL. TP showed higher shear bond strength than BD and higher VHN than TL and BD at the 24-h time point.

Abstract
Demineralized white lesions are a common problem when using orthodontic resin cement, which can be prevented with the addition of antibacterial substances. However, the addition of antibacterial substances such as zinc oxide alone may result in the deterioration of the resin cement's functions. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are known to be biocompatible without adversely affecting the mechanical properties of the material while having the ability to load different substances. The purpose of this study was to prepare orthodontic resin cement containing HNT fillers loaded with ZnO (ZnO/HNTs) and to investigate its mechanical, physical, chemical, and antibacterial properties. A group without filler was used as a control. Three groups containing 5 wt.% of HNTs, ZnO, and ZnO/HNTs were prepared. TEM and EDS measurements were carried out to confirm the morphological structure of the HNTs and the successful loading of ZnO onto the HNTs. The mechanical, physical, chemical, and antibacterial properties of the prepared orthodontic resin cement were considered. The ZnO group had high flexural strength and water absorption but a low depth of cure (p < 0.05). The ZnO/HNTs group showed the highest shear bond strength and film thickness (p < 0.05). In the antibacterial test, the ZnO/HNTs group resulted in a significant decrease in the biofilm's metabolic activity compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). ZnO/HNTs did not affect cell viability. In addition, ZnO was cytotoxic at a concentration of 100% in the extract. The nanocomposite developed in this study exhibited antimicrobial activity against S. mutans while maintaining the mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of orthodontic resin cement. Therefore, it has the potential to be used as an orthodontic resin cement that can prevent DWLs.

Abstract
This study aimed to elucidate the physicochemical properties of copolymers comprising 40 wt.% bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA), 40 wt.% quaternary ammonium urethane-dimethacrylate analogues (QAUDMA-m, where m corresponds to the number of carbon atoms in the N-alkyl substituent), and 20 wt.% triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) copolymers (BG:QAm:TEGs). The BG:QAm:TEG liquid monomer compositions and reference compositions (40 wt.% Bis-GMA, 40 wt.% urethane-dimethacrylate (UDMA), 20 wt.% TEGDMA (BG:UD:TEG) and 60 wt.% Bis-GMA, 40 wt.% TEGDMA (BG:TEG)) were characterized in terms of their refractive index (RI) and monomer glass transition temperature (Tgm) and then photocured. The resulting copolymers were characterized in terms of the polymer glass transition temperature (Tgp), experimental polymerization shrinkage (Se), water contact angle (WCA), water sorption (WS), and water solubility (SL). The prepared BG:QAm:TEG liquid monomer compositions had RI in the range 1.4997-1.5129, and Tgm in the range -52.22 to -42.12 °C. The BG:QAm:TEG copolymers had Tgp ranging from 42.21 to 50.81 °C, Se ranging from 5.08 to 6.40%, WCA ranging from 81.41 to 99.53°, WS ranging from 25.94 to 68.27 µg/mm3, and SL ranging from 5.15 to 5.58 µg/mm3. Almost all of the developed BG:QAm:TEGs fulfilled the requirements for dental materials (except BG:QA8:TEG and BG:QA10:TEG, whose WS values exceeded the 40 µg/mm3 limit).

Abstract
Dental resin composites (DRCs) have become the first choice among different restorative materials for direct anterior and posterior restorations in the clinic. Though the properties of DRCs have been improved greatly in recent years, they still have several shortcomings, such as volumetric shrinkage and shrinkage stress, biofilm development, lack of radio-opacity for some specific DRCs, and estrogenicity, which need to be overcome. The resin matrix, composed of different monomers, constitutes the continuous phase and determine the performance of DRCs. Thus, the chemical structure of the monomers plays an important role in modifying the properties of DRCs. Numerous researchers have taken to design and develop novel monomers with specific functions for the purpose of fulfilling the needs in dentistry. In this review, the development of monomers in DRCs were highlighted, especially focusing on strategies aimed at reducing volumetric shrinkage and shrinkage stress, endowing bacteriocidal and antibacterial adhesion activities as well as protein-repelling activity, increasing radio-opacity, and replacing Bis-GMA. The influences of these novel monomers on the properties of DRCs were also discussed.

Characterization of the Mechanical Properties, Water Sorption, and Solubility of Antibacterial Copolymers of Quaternary Ammonium Urethane-Dimethacrylates and Triethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 15:ma15165530. [PMID: 36013665 PMCID: PMC9414361 DOI: 10.3390/ma15165530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
The use of dental composites based on dimethacrylates that have quaternary ammonium groups is a promising solution in the field of antibacterial restorative materials. This study aimed to investigate the mechanical properties and behaviors in aqueous environments of a series of six copolymers (QA:TEG) comprising 60 wt.% quaternary ammonium urethane-dimethacrylate (QAUDMA) and 40 wt.% triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA); these copolymers are analogous to a common dental copolymer (BG:TEG), which comprises 60 wt.% bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) and 40 wt.% TEGDMA. Hardness (HB), flexural strength (FS), flexural modulus (E), water sorption (WS), and water solubility (SL) were assessed for this purpose. The pilot study of these copolymers showed that they have high antibacterial activity and good physicochemical properties. This paper revealed that QA:TEGs cannot replace BG:TEG due to their insufficient mechanical properties and poor behavior in water. However, the results can help to explain how QAUDMA-based materials work, and how their composition should be manipulated to produce the best performance. It was found that the longer the N-alkyl chain, the lower the HB, WS, and SL. The FS and E increased with the lengthening of the N-alkyl chain from eight to ten carbon atoms. Its further extension, to eighteen carbon atoms, caused a decrease in those parameters.

Abstract
The growing scale of secondary caries and occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains require the development of antibacterial dental composites. It can be achieved by the chemical introduction of quaternary ammonium dimethacrylates into dental composites. In this study, physicochemical and antibacterial properties of six novel copolymers consisting of 60 wt. % quaternary ammonium urethane-dimethacrylate analogues (QAUDMA) and 40 wt. % triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) were investigated. Uncured compositions had suitable refractive index (RI), density (dm), and glass transition temperature (Tgm). Copolymers had low polymerization shrinkage (S), high degree of conversion (DC) and high glass transition temperature (Tgp). They also showed high antibacterial effectiveness against S. aureus and E. coli bacterial strains. It was manifested by the reduction in cell proliferation, decrease in the number of bacteria adhered on their surfaces, and presence of growth inhibition zones. It can be concluded that the copolymerization of bioactive QAUDMAs with TEGDMA provided copolymers with high antibacterial activity and rewarding physicochemical properties.

Novel Rechargeable Nanostructured Calcium Phosphate Crown Cement with Long-Term Ion Release and Antibacterial Activity to Suppress Saliva Microcosm Biofilms. J Dent 2022; 122:104140. [PMID: 35490839 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2022.104140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Resin cements with remineralizing and antibacterial properties are favorable for inhibition of caries. The objectives of this study were: (1) to investigate the capability of the novel dimethylaminohexadecyl-methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nano-sized amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) containing cement to reduce saliva microcosm biofilm, and (2) to investigate the long-term ion release, recharge, and re-release of DMAHDM-NACP cement. METHODS Pyromellitic glycerol dimethacrylate (PMGDM) and ethoxylated bisphenol-A-dimethacrylate (EBPADMA) were used to make PEHB monomer. Five cements were fabricated: (1) PEHB+0%NACP+0%DMAHDM (experimental control); (2) PEHB+25%NACP+0%DMAHDM, (3) PEHB+25%NACP+0%DMAHDM; (4) PEHB+25%NACP+3%DMAHDM; (5) PEHB+25%NACP+5%DMAHDM. RelyX luting cement was used as commercial control. Colony-forming units (CFU), lactic acid production, metabolic activities, and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were performed. Long-term Calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion release, recharge, and re-release were assessed. RESULTS Compared to experimental and commercial controls, the NACP-DMAHDM cement significantly reduced CFU biofilm by 2-3 orders of magnitude, metabolic activities from 0.24±0.06 A540/cm2 to 0.03±0.01 A540/cm2, and lactic acid production from 27.7±2.5 mmol/L to 5.4±2.1 mmol/L (n=6) (p<0.05). The DMAHDM showed an MIC value of 0.03 mg/L. However, when the DMAHDM was combined with PMGDM monomer, the MIC was greater than DMAHDM alone. The ion concentrations for the experimental groups significantly increased over time (1-84 days), indicating continuous ion release (n=3) (p<0.05). Increasing the DMAHDM mass fraction from 0% to 5% and 3% to 5% significantly enhanced ion recharge and re-release at the third cycle (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Incorporating DMAHDM and NACP into resin-based crown cement provides strong antibacterial action against saliva microcosm biofilm and presents a high level of Ca and P ion recharge abilities, exhibiting long-term Ca and P ion release and remineralization potential. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Resin based cement containing NACP and DMAHDM were developed with remineralizing and potent antibacterial effects. This cement formulation showed ion release and remineralization potential and are promising formulations to inhibit the incidence of recurrent caries and could promote remineralization and be sustainable for the long term.

Abstract
Denture stomatitis is a multifactorial pathological condition of the oral mucosa that affects up to 72% of denture wearers. It is commonly seen on the palatal mucosa and characterized by erythema on the oral mucosa that are in contact with the denture surface. The aim of this study was to incorporate 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) into a high impact polymethylmethacrylate heat-cured denture base acrylic resin as a potential treatment for denture stomatitis. We used a comparative study design to examine the effect of incorporating MPC as a protein repellent agent and DMAHDM as an antifungal agent to prevent the adherence of Candida albicans to the denture base material. The dual incorporation of MPC and DMAHDM reduced C. albicans biofilm colony-forming unit by two orders of magnitude when compared to the control group devoid of the bioactive agents. Although the addition of MPC and DMAHDM alone or in combination significantly reduced the flexural strength of the material, they showed reduced roughness values when compared to control groups. This new denture acrylic resin provides the benefit of enhancing C. albicans biofilm elimination through dual mechanisms of action, which could potentially reduce the prevalence of denture stomatitis.

Abstract
Numerous approaches have been developed to improve the resin-dentin bond performance, among which the bio-application of mussel-derived compounds have drawn great attention recently. To assess the performance of N-(3,4-dihydroxyphenethyl)methacrylamide (DMA), a mussel-derived compound, as a functional monomer in dental adhesive, its potential property to cross-link with dentin collagen and polymerize with adhesive will first be evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), attenuated total reflectance technique of Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) via Peakforce QNM mode. After validating the influence of DMA on collagen and adhesive separately, the overall performance of DMA/ethanol solution as a primer in dentin bonding was examined using micro-tensile bond strength (μTBS) testing, fracture pattern observation, and nanoleakage evaluation both immediately and after 10,000 times thermocycling aging. The inhibitory effect of DMA on endogenous metalloproteinases (MMPs) was evaluated by in situ zymography using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and the cytotoxicity of DMA was evaluated using cell counting kit-8. Results demonstrated that DMA successfully cross-linked with dentin collagen via non-covalent bonds and had no influence on the polymerization and mechanical properties of the adhesive. Furthermore, even after 10,000 times thermocycling aging, the μTBS and nanoleakage expression of the DMA-treated groups showed no significant change compared with their immediate values. In situ zymography revealed reduced endogenous proteolytic activities after the application of DMA, and no cytotoxicity effect was observed for DMA concentration up to 25 μmol/L. Thus, DMA could be used as a novel, biocompatible functional monomer in dentin bonding. DMA acts as a functional monomer in dentin bonding system with high biocompatibility. DMA connects the adhesive and collagen network to resist various external attacks. DMA/ethanol inhibits the activity of MMPs and improve resin-dentin bond durability.

Abstract
Secondary caries is one of the main causes of dental zirconia restoration failure in the clinic. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the antibacterial performance of zirconia ceramics to reduce the occurrence of secondary caries. In this study, a quaternary ammonium compound antibacterial polymer was innovatively synthesized by solution polymerization with a quaternary ammonium salt monomer as the antibacterial component. The antibacterial epitaxial transition layer was successfully prepared on the surface of zirconia ceramics by the hydroxyl group on HEMA reacting with the siloxane group in the KH570 hydrolysate, which makes the antibacterial polymer indirectly chemically combine with the silicate epitaxial transition layer. The antibacterial epitaxial transition layer exhibited excellent mechanical properties, satisfactory biocompatibility and significant antibacterial effects, and the maximum antibacterial rate is 99%. The antibacterial epitaxial transition layer plays an important role in preventing secondary caries and improving the success rate of clinical zirconia ceramic restorations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Composites with remineralizing and antibacterial properties are favorable for caries inhibition. The objectives of this study were to develop a new bioactive nanocomposite with remineralizing and antibiofilm properties by incorporating dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and nano-calcium fluoride (nCaF2). METHODS nCaF2 was produced via a spray-drying method and integrated at 15% mass fraction into composite. DMAHDM was added at 3% mass fraction. Mechanical properties and F and Ca ion releases were assessed. Colony-forming units (CFU), lactic acid and metabolic activity of biofilms on composites were performed. RESULTS The new composites had flexural strengths of (95.28±6.32) MPa and (125.93±7.49) MPa, which were within the ISO recommendations. Biofilm CFU were reduced by 3-4 log (p<0.05). The composites achieved high F releases of (0.89±0.01) mmol/L and (0.44±0.01) mmol/L, and Ca releases of (1.46±0.05) mmol/L and (0.54±0.005) mmol/L. CONCLUSIONS New nanocomposites were developed with good mechanical properties, potent antibacterial activity against salivary biofilms, and high F and Ca ion releases with potential for remineralization. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Novel nanocomposites using nCaF2 and DMAHDM were developed with potent antibacterial and remineralizing effects and high F and Ca ion releases. They are promising to inhibit recurrent caries, promote remineralization, and possess long-term sustainability.

Abstract
Six novel urethane-dimethacrylate analogues (QAUDMAs) were synthesized and characterized. They consisted of the 2,4,4,-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate (TMDI) core and two methacrylate-terminated wings containing quaternary ammonium groups substituted with alkyl chains of 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, or 18 carbon atoms. QAUDMAs, due to the presence of quaternary ammonium groups, may have possible antibacterial effects. Since they showed satisfactory physicochemical properties, they will be subjected to further research towards the development of dental composites with a capacity to reduce secondary caries. The synthesis of QAUDMAs included three stages: (i) transesterification of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), (ii) N-alkylation of the tertiary amino group with alkyl bromide, and (iii) addition of TMDI to the intermediate achieved in the second stage. The formation of QAUDMAs was confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR. They were characterized for density (dm), viscosity (η), refractive index (RI), glass transition temperature (Tg), polymerization shrinkage (S), and degree of conversion (DC). QAUDMAs were yellow, viscous resins (the η values ranged from 1.28 × 103 to 1.39 × 104 Pa·s, at 50 °C). Their RI ranged from 1.50 to 1.52, Tg from −31 to −15 °C, DC from 53 to 78%, and S from 1.24 to 2.99%, which is appropriate for dental applications.

Abstract
Nine antibacterial di-methacrylate monomers based on bis-quaternary ammonium salts (bis-QAMs) were synthesized and structurally characterized. The biological activity of the bis-QAMs was tested in terms of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) on different bacterial strains achieving promising results and, in most cases, a complete bactericidal effect using a bis-QAM concentration lower than 1 mg/mL. Two of the structures showed comparable and superior activity against S. mutans than the commercial monomer 12-methacryloyloxydodecyl pyridinium bromide (MDBP). All the bis-QAMs here described were able to inhibit S. mutans biofilm formation at a concentration equal to the MIC value. From the analysis of the obtained data, some correlation regarding the structure and the antibacterial activity of the bis-QAMs could be drawn: a flexible alkyl C12 spacer between the two quaternary ammonium moieties increased the monomer antibacterial effect in comparison to the aromatic ones; the equilibrium between hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties was directly correlated to the bactericidal range of action; the increase of the steric hindrance of the ammonium side groups might be both advantageous or disadvantageous to the antibacterial efficacy depending on the whole monomer chemical structure. Even though the possible correlation between the monomer structures and their bacteriostatic or bactericidal effect is under investigation, the monomers exhibited low cytotoxicity on human dental pulp stem cells, confirming their promising potential in the dental materials' field. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The use of dental resins with antibacterial monomers might prevent the formation of secondary caries at the restoration margins. For this purpose, a series of di-methacrylate bis-quaternary ammonium monomers (QAMs) was developed. Unlike antibacterial mono-methacrylate monomers already described in the literature, the synthesized di-methacrylate monomers have the potential of acting as cross-linkers stabilizing the polymeric network and bear two quaternary ammonium groups that increase their antibacterial ability. The QAMs exert bactericidal activity on both Gram(+) and Gram(-) bacterial strains maintaining at the same time good biocompatibility with the oral environment. Some structural elements of the monomers were clearly related to high antibacterial properties, and this can help design new active structures and better understand their mechanism of action.

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.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the application of a fabricated dressing containing kaolin for skin regeneration in a rat model of excisional wounds. METHOD In the present study, kaolin was loaded into electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/chitosan polymer blend to develop a composite nanofibrous dressing. To make the yarns, kaolin with weight ratio of 5% was added to PVA/chitosan polymer blend and subsequently formed into nanofibres using the electrospinning method. Scaffolds were evaluated for to their microstructure, mechanical properties, surface wettability, water vapour transmission rate, water-uptake capacity, blood uptake capacity, blood compatibility, microbial penetration test, the number of colonies, and cellular response with the L929 cell line. Rats with full-thickness excisional wounds were treated with kaolin-containing and kaolin-free dressings. RESULTS The study showed that rats treated with the kaolin-incorporated mats demonstrated a significant closure to nearly 97.62±4.81% after 14 days compared with PVA/chitosan and the sterile gauze, which showed 86.15±8.11% and 78.50±4.22% of wound closure, respectively. The histopathological studies showed that in the PVA/chitosan/kaolin group, dense and regular collagen fibres were formed, while wounds treated with sterile gauze or PVA/chitosan scaffolds had random and loose collagen fibres. CONCLUSION Our results show the potential applicability of PVA/chitosan/kaolin scaffolds as a wound care material.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the current state of research on antibacterial dental adhesives. The interest in this field can be drawn from an increasing number of scholarly works in this area. However, there is still a lack of quantitative measurement of this topic. The main aim of this study was to consolidate the research published on the antibacterial adhesive from 1996 to 2020 in Web of Science indexed journals. The bibliometric method, a quantitative study of investigating publishing trends and patterns, was used for this study. The result has shown that a gradual increase in research was found, whereby a substantial increase was observed from 2013. A total of 248 documents were published in 84 journals with total citations of 5107. The highly cited articles were published mainly in Q1 category journals. Most of the published articles were from the USA, China, and other developed countries; however, some developing countries contributed as well. The authorship pattern showed an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach among researchers. The thematic evaluation of keywords along with a three-factor analysis showed that 'antibacterial adhesives' and 'quaternary ammonium' have been used commonly. This bibliometric analysis can provide direction not only to researchers but also to funding organizations and policymakers.

Novel Orthodontic Cement Comprising Unique Imidazolium-Based Polymerizable Antibacterial Monomers. J Funct Biomater 2020; 11:jfb11040075. [PMID: 33080813 PMCID: PMC7712085 DOI: 10.3390/jfb11040075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2020] [Revised: 10/07/2020] [Accepted: 10/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
White spot lesions (WSLs) can develop quickly and compromise the successful outcome of the orthodontic treatment. Orthodontic bonding cement with the capability to prevent or mitigate WSLs could be beneficial, especially for patients with high risk of caries. This study explored novel mono- and di-imidazolium-based polymerizable antibacterial monomers and evaluated orthodontic cement compositions comprising such novel monomers. Their antibacterial potentials, mechanical properties, and shear bond strength (SBS) to bovine enamel were investigated. Statistical tests were applied to SBS and mechanical tests (one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test). For antibacterial resins C (ABR-C) and E (ABR-E), their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) against cariogenic Streptococcus mutans bacterial strain UA159 were found to be 4 μg/mL and 8 μg /mL, respectively. The loss of dry mass from completely demineralized dentin beams in buffer solutions pre-dipped into ABR-C and ABR-E resins is much less than that in control buffer (artificial saliva) only. For unfilled resins comprising up to 12 wt % ABR-C, no significant decreases in flexural strength or modulus were observed. For experimental cements incorporating 1–4 wt % ABR-C, there was no drastic compromise to the SBS to enamel except for 3 wt % ABR-C. Furthermore, their SBS was all comparable to the commercially available orthodontic cements. The ISO-22196 antimicrobial test against S. aureus showed significant levels of antibacterial effects—up to over 5 logs of microorganism reduction exhibited by ABR-C-containing experimental cements. The imidazolium-based polymerizable monomers could be utilized to functionalize orthodontic bonding cement with steady antibacterial activity and develop a potential strategy to counteract WSLs.

Biocompatibility, mechanical, and bonding properties of a dental adhesive modified with antibacterial monomer and cross-linker. Clin Oral Investig 2020; 25:2877-2889. [PMID: 33006665 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-020-03605-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2020] [Accepted: 09/23/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated the antibacterial, cytotoxicity, and mechanical properties of a dental adhesive modified with quaternary ammonium monomer ((2-acryloyloxyethyl)dimethyldodecylammonium bromide) and cross-linker (bis(2-acryloyloxyethyl)methyldodecylammonium bromide). MATERIALS AND METHODS Monomer (M), cross-linker (C), or a combination of these (M + C) were incorporated into adhesive Adper Single Bond Plus (SB) in 5, 10, or 25% (as wt%). A colony-forming unit and MTT assays were used to evaluate antibacterial properties against Streptococcus mutans and cell viability. Resin-dentin beams (0.9 ± 0.1 mm2) were evaluated for micro-tensile bond strength (μTBS) after 24 h, 6 months, and 3 years. Hourglass specimens were evaluated for ultimate tensile strength (UTS) after 24 h, 1 week, and 6 months. Micro-hardness measurements after softening in ethanol were taken as an indirect assessment of the polymer cross-linking density. Kruskal-Wallis, one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, and Student's t test were used for analysis of the antibacterial, cytotoxicity, μTBS, UTS, and hardness data, all with a significance level of p < 0.05. RESULTS 10%M and 25%M demonstrated a significant reduction in S. mutans relative to SB (p < 0.001). No differences in cytotoxicity were detected for any of the groups. After 6 months, no changes in μTBS were shown for any of the groups. After 3 years, all groups evidenced a significant decrease in μTBS (p < 0.05) except 5%M, 5%C, and 5%M + 5%C. All groups demonstrated either stable or significantly increased UTS after 6 months. Except for the cross-linker groups, a significant decrease in micro-hardness was shown for all groups after softening in ethanol (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A 5-10% of monomer may render the resin antibacterial without a compromise to its mechanical and bonding properties. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Biomodification of a resin adhesive with an antibacterial monomer and cross-linker may help improve the life span of adhesive restorations.

The structure - Activity correlation in the family of dicationic imidazolium surfactants: Antimicrobial properties and cytotoxic effect. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2020; 1864:129728. [PMID: 32898623 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2020.129728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2020] [Revised: 08/28/2020] [Accepted: 09/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of new effective microbicide surfactants and the search for the structure-biological activity relationship is an important and promising problem. Surfactants containing imidazolium fragment attract attention of researchers in the field of chemotherapy, because these compounds often exhibit high antimicrobial activity. The aim of this work is to identify the newly synthesized surfactants from the viewpoint of their potential usefulness in pharmacology and medicine. For this purpose, a detailed study of antimicrobial, hemolytic and cytotoxic activity of dicationic alkylimidazolium surfactants of the m-s-m (Im) series with a variable length of a hydrocarbon tail (m = 10, 12) and a spacer fragment (s = 2, 3, 4) was carried out. METHODS Aggregation of surfactants in solutions was estimated by tensiometry and conductivity. Antimicrobial activity was determined by the serial dilution technique. Cytotoxic effects of the test compounds on human cancer and normal cells were estimated by means of the multifunctional Cytell Cell Imaging system. Cell Apoptosis Analysis was made by flow cytometry. RESULTS The test compounds show high antimicrobial activity against a wide range of test microorganisms and do not possess high hemolytic activity. Importantly, some of them display a bactericidal activity comparable to ciprofloxacin fluoroquinolone antibiotic against Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant strains of S. aureus (MRSA). The cytotoxicity of the compounds against normal and tumor human cell lines has been tested as well, with cytotoxic effect and selectivity strongly controlled by structural factor and kind of cell line. Superior results were revealed for compound 10-4-10 (Im) in the case of HuTu 80 cell line (duodenal adenocarcinoma), for which IC50 value at the level of doxorubicin and a markedly higher selectivity index (SI 7.5) were demonstrated. Flow cytometry assay shows apoptosis-inducing effect of this compound on HuTu 80 cells, through significant changes in the potential of mitochondrial membrane. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Antibacterial properties are shown to be controlled by alkyl chain length, with the highest activity demonstrated by surfactants with decyl tail, with the length of the spacer fragment showing practically no effect. The results indicate that the mechanism of cytotoxic effect of the compounds can be associated with the induction of apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Selectivity against pathogenic microorganisms and low toxicity against eukaryotic cells allow considering dicationic imidazolium surfactants as new effective antimicrobial agents. At the same time, high selectivity against some cancer cell lines indicates the prospect of their using as components of new anticancer drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Polymerization shrinkage stress may lead to marginal damage, microleakage and failure of composite restorations. The objectives of this study were to : (1) develop a novel nanocomposite with low-shrinkage-stress, antibacterial and remineralization properties to reduce marginal enamel demineralization under biofilms; (2) evaluate the mechanical properties of the composite and calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion release; and (3) investigate the cytotoxicity of the new low-shrinkage-stress monomer in vitro. METHODS The low-shrinkage-stress resin consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether (TEG-DVBE), and 3 % dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and 20 % calcium phosphate nanoparticles (NACP) were added. Mechanical properties, polymerization shrinkage stress, and degree of conversion were evaluated. The growth of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) on enamel slabs with different composites was assessed. Ca and P ion releases and monomer cytotoxicity were measured. RESULTS Composite with DMAHDM and NACP had flexural strength of 84.9 ± 10.3 MPa (n = 6), matching that of a commercial control composite. Adding 3 % DMAHDM did not negatively affect the composite ion release. Under S. mutans biofilm, the marginal enamel hardness was 1.2 ± 0.1 GPa for the remineralizing and antibacterial group, more than 2-fold the 0.5 ± 0.07 GPa for control (p < 0.05). The polymerization shrinkage stress of the new composite was 40 % lower than that of traditional composite control (p < 0.05). The new monomers had fibroblast viability similar to that of traditional monomer control (p > 0.1). CONCLUSION A novel low-shrinkage-stress nanocomposite was developed with remineralizing and antibacterial properties. This new composite is promising to inhibit recurrent caries at the restoration margins by reducing polymerization stress and protecting enamel hardness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of the quaternary ammonium antibacterial agent, Dimethyl-Hexadecyl-Methacryloxyethyl-Ammonium Iodide (DHMAI), on structural stability of an experimental resin composite after biological aging. METHODS Experimental resin composites containing 7.5% of DHMAI were incubated in a biological medium in the presence of a Streptococcus Mutans (SM) strain during 3 months. The physicochemical, mechanical, and thermal properties, before and after 3 months of aging, were evaluated using: Degree of Conversion (DC), Residual Functions (RF), Vitreous Transition (Tg), Thermal Expansion Coefficient (CTE) and thermal degradation using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis (FTIRATR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermo Mechanical analyses (TMA) and Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TG). RESULTS Incorporation of DHAMI increased DC and decreased RF. After aging, DHMAI decreased and slowed RF release. Incorporation of 7.5% DHAMI provided significant modification of the thermal behavior (Tg and thermal degradation) but did not affect CTE. After aging, DHMAI enhanced the structural stability and improved resistance against biodegradation compared to the control composite. SIGNIFICANCE The development of an antibacterial dental composite based on DHMAI improved its physical, mechanical, and thermal behaviors, possibly enhancing dental composite longevity. Results suggest that DHMAI could be used in the composition of other bioactive dental materials.

Abstract
The chemistry of resin-based dental adhesives is critical for its interaction with dental tissues and long-term bonding stability. Changes in dental adhesives composition influences the materials' key physical-chemical properties, such as rate and degree of conversion, water sorption, solubility, flexural strength and modulus, and cohesive strength and improves the biocompatibility to dental tissues. Maintaining a suitable reactivity between photoinitiators and monomers is important for optimal properties of adhesive systems, in order to enable adequate polymerisation and improved chemical, physical and biological properties. The aim of this article is to review the current state-of-the-art of dental adhesives, and their chemical composition and characteristics that influences the polymerisation reaction and subsequent materials properties and performance.

Abstract
Wounds have always been considered as one of the most common physical damages. Therefore, various researches have been conducted to find an appropriate method to improve wound healing process. Among various materials, since hydrogels have appropriate properties for wound healing, they are widely used for this purpose. In this study, to develop a potential wound dressing, different concentrations of naringenin (0%, 1%, 10% and 20%) were incorporated in alginate hydrogel followed by evaluating its characters such as morphology, swelling properties, weight loss, antibacterial activity, releasing profile of the naringenin, hemo-, and cytocompatibility. Finally, to evaluate the effect of developed hydrogels on wound healing, the full-thickness dermal wound model in rat was used. Our results provided that the prepared hydrogels have appropriate porosity (86.7 ± 5.3%) with the interconnected pores. Moreover, weight loss assessment confirmed that fabricated hydrogels have suitable biodegradability (about 89% after 14 days). MTT assay also revealed the positive effect of hydrogels on cell viabilities, and they have no toxicity effect on cells. In vivo study indicated that the prepared hydrogels had better wound closure than the gauze-treated wound (the control), and alginate/20% naringenin group had the best wound closure among other groups. All in all, this study concluded that alginate/naringenin hydrogel has positive effect on wound healing process, and it can be used to treat skin injuries in the clinic. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Effective control of oral biofilm infectious diseases represents a major global challenge. Microorganisms in biofilms exhibit increased drug tolerance compared with planktonic cells. The present review covers innovative antimicrobial strategies for controlling oral biofilm-related infections published predominantly over the past 5 years. Antimicrobial dental materials based on antimicrobial agent release, contact-killing and multi-functional strategies have been designed and synthesized for the prevention of initial bacterial attachment and subsequent biofilm formation on the tooth and material surface. Among the therapeutic approaches for managing biofilms in clinical practice, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy has emerged as an alternative to antimicrobial regimes and mechanical removal of biofilms, and cold atmospheric plasma shows significant advantages over conventional antimicrobial approaches. Nevertheless, more preclinical studies and appropriately designed and well-structured multi-center clinical trials are critically needed to obtain reliable comparative data. The acquired information will be helpful in identifying the most effective antibacterial solutions and the most optimal circumstances to utilize these strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to formulate experimental orthodontic bracket adhesives and test their mechanical properties, fluoride release and antibacterial activity. METHODS Four experimental antibacterial orthodontic bracket adhesives were prepared with different compositions of synthesized antibacterial monomers replacing total 5% of dental monomers in the control Transbond XT (3M): 5%C11, 3.5%C11+1.5%C2, 5%C16, and 3.5%C16+1.5%C2. Transbond XT alone was used as control. These groups were used to bond premolar brackets to extracted premolars. Shear bond strength (SBS) was tested using an Instron machine. For antibacterial test, disk specimens (10mm diameter, 1mm thick, n=4) were fabricated and incubated with cultures of cariogenic Streptococcus mutans for 48h, and following gentle sonication, S. mutans biofilms in colony-forming-units (CFU) on the disks were enumerated by plating on agar medium. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey test (α=0.05). RESULTS All experimental groups had similar shear bond strength (no significant difference) to the control. All experimental groups showed significant inhibitory effect against S. mutans biofilm formation, when compared to the control, but there was no significant difference between experimental groups. CONCLUSION Antibacterial orthodontic adhesive can be fabricated to have similar mechanical properties but better caries-inhibitory effect than current adhesive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methyl methacrylate monomer of denture base resins was modified with several monomers to achieve better physico-mechanical properties without compromising the biocompatibility. However, there are no consensuses on the best strategy to achieve best modified monomer. PURPOSE To identify and evaluate the differences in the properties between conventional and modified monomers and to verify the influence of several variables on the properties of denture base acrylic resin. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was executed by following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. In-vitro studies that investigated the properties of conventional and modified monomers were selected. Searches were carried out in the Ebscohost, PubMed, Semantic scholar and J-stage databases. The search commenced from the year 1995 and the last search was done till November 2018. A comparison was performed between modified and unmodified monomers. The analyses were carried out using fixed-effect models. RESULTS The meta-analysis results showed high heterogeneity in all aspects, and higher flexural strength for monomers modified with 20% methacrylic acid. CONCLUSION Although the articles included in this meta-analysis showed high heterogeneity and high risk of bias, the in-vitro literature seems to suggest that use of modified monomers could improve the properties of denture base resins. Other variants of monomer modifications and their tested parameters were discussed in this systematic review as well. Dimensional accuracy is an unexplored variable to be evaluated extensively in the future researches.

Abstract
In this study, hydroxyapatite nanoparticles containing 10% doxycycline, a structural isomer of tetracycline, was prepared by the co-precipitation method. It was added to collagen solution for the preparation of the scaffold with freeze-casting method in order to develop a composite scaffold with both antibacterial and osteoinductive properties for repairing bone defects. The scaffolds were evaluated regarding their morphology, porosity, degradation and cellular response. The scaffolds for further investigation were added in a rat calvaria defect model. The study showed that after eight weeks, the bone formation was relatively higher in the collagen/nano-hydroxyapatite/doxycycline group with completely filled defect when compared with other groups. Histopathological evaluation showed that the defect in the collagen/nano-hydroxyapatite/doxycycline group was fully replaced by the new bone and connective tissue. Our results provide evidence supporting the possible applicability of doxycycline-containing scaffolds for successful bone regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) represent one of the most effective classes of disinfectant agents in dental materials and resin nanocomposites. This reviews aims to give a wide overview on the research in the field of antibacterial QACs in dental materials and nanocomposites. METHOD An introduction to dental materials components as well as the microorganisms and methods of evaluation for the antimicrobial assays are presented. Then, the properties and synthesis route of QACs, as monomer and filler, are shown. Finally, antimicrobial monomers and fillers, specifically those contain quaternary ammonium salts (QASs), in dental materials are reviewed. RESULTS QACs have been used as monomer and micro/nanofiller in restorative dentistry. They possess one or more methacrylate functional groups to participate in polymerization reactions. QACs with multiple methacrylate groups can also be used as crosslinking agents. Furthermore, QACs with chain length from ∼12 to 16 have higher antimicrobial activity in cured dental resins. In general, increasing the chain length leads to a threshold value (critical point) and then it causes decrease in the antimicrobial activity. SIGNIFICANCE The current state of the art of dental materials and resin nanocomposites includes a wide variety of antimicrobial materials. Among them, QACs presents low cytotoxicity and excellent long-term antimicrobial activity without leaching out over time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Development of antibacterial dental composites is the ultimate goal to decrease carious disease occurrence and increase the restoration longevity. For this purpose, the quaternary ammonium dimethyl-hexadecyl-methacryloxyethyl-ammonium iodide (DHMAI) and the methacryloyloxyethylphosphorylcholine (MPC) have been incorporated in experimental methacrylate-based composite resins. This aims to first investigate the effect of each alone and then their combined effect. METHODS Synthesized DHMAI and commercial MPC were added either alone or combined at different concentrations to experimental dental composite. Flexural strength (FS) and modulus (FM) were tested to select the optimal concentrations. Only selected composites were evaluated for Vickers hardness (HV) and the degree of conversion (DC) using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis (FTIR-ATR). Antibacterial activity was assessed using tests on colony-forming unit (CFU), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Alamarblue assay to measure the metabolic activity. Streptococcus mutans biofilm was chosen to be grown on the composite surfaces during 96h at 37°C. RESULTS Incorporation of 7.5% DHMAI in composite improved the degree of conversion and gave a strong antibacterial effect with a reduction of (∼98%) in CFU and (∼50%) of metabolic activity with acceptable mechanical properties. Addition of MPC to DHMAI affects mechanical properties of composites without providing a better antibacterial activity. SIGNIFICANCE Composites with DHMAI greatly reduced S. mutans biofilm and improved the degree of conversion without scarifying the composites' mechanical properties. DHMAI may have wide applicability to other dental materials in order to inhibit caries and improve the longevity of restorations.

Abstract
Microbial infections affect humans worldwide. Many quaternary ammonium compounds have been synthesized that are not only antibacterial, but also possess antifungal, antiviral and anti-matrix metalloproteinase capabilities. Incorporation of quaternary ammonium moieties into polymers represents one of the most promising strategies for preparation of antimicrobial biomaterials. Various polymerization techniques have been employed to prepare antimicrobial surfaces with quaternary ammonium functionalities; in particular, syntheses involving controlled radical polymerization techniques enable precise control over macromolecular structure, order and functionality. Although recent publications report exciting advances in the biomedical field, some of these technological developments have also been accompanied by potential toxicological and antimicrobial resistance challenges. Recent evidenced-based data on the biomedical applications of antimicrobial quaternary ammonium-containing biomaterials that are based on randomized human clinical trials, the golden standard in contemporary medicinal science, are included in the present review. This should help increase visibility, stimulate debates and spur conversations within a wider scientific community on the implications and plausibility for future developments of quaternary ammonium-based antimicrobial biomaterials.

Abstract
Irreversible white spot lesion (WSL) occurs in up to 50% of patients during orthodontic treatment. Therefore, orthodontic adhesives need to be able to inhibit or reduce bacterial growth in order to prevent or minimize WSL. This study evaluated the antibacterial effect and shear bond strength (SBS) of a resin-based orthodontic adhesive containing the antibacterial monomer 2-methacryloxylethyl hexadecyl methyl ammonium bromide (MAE-HB). MAE-HB was added at three concentrations (1, 3, and 5 wt%) to a commercial orthodontic adhesive Transbond XT, while the blank control comprised unmodified Transbond XT. Their antibacterial effects on Streptococcus mutans were investigated after 0 and 180 days of aging. The SBS of metal brackets bonded to the buccal enamel surface of human premolars was assessed. Compared with the blank control, the MAE-HB-incorporated adhesive exhibited a significant contact inhibitory effect on the growth of S. mutans (P < 0.05), even after 180 days of aging. SBS and adhesive remnant index values revealed that the bonding ability of the experimental adhesive was not significantly adversely affected by the incorporation of MAE-HB at any of the three concentrations. Therefore, orthodontic adhesives with strong and long-lasting bacteriostatic properties can be created through the incorporation of MAE-HB without negatively influencing bonding ability.

Abstract
AbstractA series of cationic surfactants, di-chained esterquat surfactants, was synthesized from triethanolamine, stearic acid and various alkylation agents by two step processes. The quaterisation was carried out with diethyl sulphate, benzyl chloride, 1-chloro-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene, benzoyl chloride. The synthesized surfactants were confirmed by IR spectra. Surface properties, wetting time, softness and antibacterial activity of the synthesized surfactants were investigated. The results showed that the synthesized esterquats exhibit high surface activities, better wetting times and very good softening properties. A synthesized cationic surfactant was further prepared for formulation of hair conditioning and body care. This product can be used in formulations of shampoo, fabric softener and liquid soaps and also it does not have any harmful impact to aquatic life. Further, the synthesized surfactant, prepared from 1-Chloro-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene, exhibit a better antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. It was found that the alkylation agent and hydrocarbon chain length affected the results.

Abstract
Resin-based pit-and-fissure sealants are often used to form a barrier on the occlusal surface of molars to treat caries lesions; however, bacteria can remain in the pit and fissures without detection, increasing the risk of secondary caries. Sealants with antimicrobial properties or microbial repellent actions might be advantageous. The aim of this study was to assess the inhibitory effect of a 2-methacryloxylethyl dodecyl methyl ammonium bromide (MAE-DB)-incorporated sealant against Streptococcus mutans. MAE-DB (4% wt) was incorporated into a commercially available sealant, Eco-S resin-based pit-and-fissure sealant (Vericom Co., Ltd., Korea); a sealant without MAE-DB served as a negative control, and Clinpro™ Sealant (3M™ ESPE™), a fluoride-releasing resin, was used as a commercial control. The effects of the cured sealants and their eluents on the growth of S. mutans were determined according to colony-forming unit counts and metabolic tests. The effects of the cured sealants on the adherence and membrane integrity of S. mutans were investigated using confocal laser-scanning microscopy (CLSM) in conjunction with fluorescent indicators. Compared with the negative control and commercial control, the cured MAE-DB-incorporated pit-and-fissure sealant exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of S. mutans (P < 0.05), whereas the eluents did not show any detectable antibacterial activity. The commercial control also showed no detectable bactericidal activity. Moreover, the aged experimental material retained its property of contact inhibition of biofilm formation. The fluorescence analysis of CLSM images demonstrated that the cured MAE-DB-incorporated sealant could hamper the adherence of S. mutans and exert a detrimental effect on bacterial membrane integrity. The incorporation of MAE-DB can render a pit-and-fissure sealant with contact antibacterial activity after polymerization via influencing the growth, adherence, and membrane integrity of S. mutans. Therefore, MAE-DB-containing pit-and-fissure sealant shows promise for preventing or controlling dental caries on occlusal pit and fissures of molars.

Antibacterial activity of a modified unfilled resin containing a novel polymerizable quaternary ammonium salt MAE-HB. Sci Rep 2016; 6:33858.

Abstract
Resins with strong and long-lasting antibacterial properties are critical for the prevention of secondary dental caries. In this study, we evaluated the antibacterial effect and the underlying mechanism of action of an unfilled resin incorporating 2-methacryloxylethyl hexadecyl methyl ammonium bromide (MAE-HB) against Streptococcus mutans UA159 (S. mutans UA159). MAE-HB was added into unfilled resin at 10 mass%, and unfilled resin without MAE-HB served as the control. Bacterial growth was inhibited on 10%-MAE-HB unfilled resin compared with the control at 1 d, 7 d, 30 d, or 180 d (P < 0.05). The growth inhibitory effect was independent of the incubation time (P > 0.05). No significant differences in the antibacterial activities of eluents from control versus 10%-MAE-HB unfilled resins were observed at any time point (P > 0.05). The number of bacteria attached to 10%-MAE-HB unfilled resin was considerably lower than that to control. Fe-SEM and CLSM showed that 10%-MAE-HB unfilled resin disturbed the integrity of bacterial cells. Expression of the bacterial glucosyltransferases, gtfB and gtfC, was lower on 10%-MAE-HB unfilled resin compared to that on control (P < 0.05). These data indicate that incorporation of MAE-HB confers unfilled resin with strong and long-lasting antibacterial effects against S. mutans.

Abstract
The present study examined the mechanism for caries resistance and the pulp responses in vital teeth following the use of the augmented-pressure adhesive displacement technique. Dentin adhesives were applied to the surface of sound dentin disks in 4 experimental groups: non-antibacterial adhesive and gentle adhesive displacement (N-G), non-antibacterial adhesive and augmented-pressure adhesive displacement (N-H), antibacterial adhesive and gentle adhesive displacement (A-G), antibacterial adhesive and augmented-pressure adhesive displacement (A-H). The depth of demineralization induced by biological or chemical demineralization models was measured using confocal laser scanning microscopy and analyzed with two-way ANOVA. Pulp responses of vital dog's teeth to the augmented-pressure adhesive displacement technique were evaluated using light microscopy. Depth of demineralization was significantly affected by "adhesive type" and "intensity of adhesive displacement" for biological demineralization. For chemical demineralization, only "intensity of adhesive displacement" showed significant influence on lesion depth. Pulp response of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 MPa groups showed only moderate disorganization of the odontoblast layer at 24 hours that completely re-organized after 3 weeks. Augmented-pressure adhesive displacement improves the caries resistance property of bonded dentin and does not cause irreversible pulpal damage to vital teeth when the air pressure employed is equal or smaller than 0.3 MPa.

Abstract
The present in vitro study evaluated the secondary caries resistance potential of acid-etched human coronal dentin bonded using augmented pressure adhesive displacement in conjunction with an experimental antibacterial adhesive. One hundred and twenty class I cavities were restored with a commercial non-antibacterial etch-and-rinse adhesive (N) or an experimental antibacterial adhesive (A) which was displaced by gentle air-blow (G) or augmented pressure air-blow (H). After bonding and restoration with resin composite, the resulted 4 groups (N-G, N-H, A-G and A-H) were exposed to Streptococcus mutans biofilm for 4, 8, 15, 20 or 25 days. The development of secondary caries in the bonding interface was then examined by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data acquired from 15, 20 and 25 days of artificial caries induction were analyzed with three-way ANOVA at α = 0.05. The depth of the artificial carious lesions was significantly affected by “adhesive type” (Single Bond 2 vs experimental antibacterial adhesive p = 0.003), “intensity of adhesive displacement” (gentle vs augmented-pressure adhesive displacement; p < 0.001), as well as “artificial caries induction time” (p < 0.001). The combined use of augmented pressure adhesive displacement and experimental antibacterial adhesive reduces the progression of secondary caries.
