Abstract
The process of bonding to dentin is complex and dynamic, greatly impacting the longevity of dental restorations. The tooth/dental material interface is degraded by bacterial acids, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and hydrolysis. As a result, bonded dental restorations face reduced longevity due to adhesive interfacial breakdown, leading to leakage, tooth pain, recurrent caries, and costly restoration replacements. To address this issue, we synthesized and characterized a multifunctional magnetic platform, CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2, to provide several beneficial functions. The platform comprises Fe3O4 microparticles and chlorhexidine (CHX) encapsulated within mesoporous silica, which was silanized by an antibacterial quaternary ammonium silane (SiQuac). This platform simultaneously targets bacterial inhibition, stability of the hybrid layer, and enhanced filler infiltration by magnetic motion. Comprehensive experiments include X-ray diffraction, FT-IR, VSM, EDS, N2 adsorption-desorption (BET), transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and UV-vis spectroscopy. Then, CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2 was incorporated into an experimental adhesive resin for dental bonding restorations, followed by immediate and long-term antibacterial assessment, cytotoxicity evaluation, and mechanical and bonding performance. The results confirmed the multifunctional nature of CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2. This work outlined a roadmap for (1) designing and tuning an adhesive formulation containing the new platform CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2; (2) assessing microtensile bond strength to dentin using a clinically relevant model of simulated hydrostatic pulpal pressure; and (3) investigating the antibacterial outcome performance of the particles when embedded into the formulated adhesives over time. The results showed that at 4 wt % of CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2-doped adhesive under the guided magnetic field, the bond strength increased by 28%. CHX@SiQuac@Fe3O4@m-SiO2 enhanced dentin adhesion in the magnetic guide bonding process without altering adhesive properties or causing cytotoxicity. This finding presents a promising method for strengthening the tooth/dental material interface's stability and extending the bonded restorations' lifespan.

Application of Accelerated Predictive Stability Studies in Extemporaneously Compounded Formulations of Chlorhexidine to Assess the Shelf Life. Molecules 2023; 28:7925. [PMID: 38067654 PMCID: PMC10708018 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237925] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Industrially fabricated medicines have a well-defined shelf life supported by rigorous studies before their approval for commercialization. However, the shelf life of extemporaneous compounding topical formulations prepared at hospitals tends to be shorter, especially when no data are available to prove a longer stability period. Also, the storage conditions are unknown in many circumstances. Accelerated Predictive Stability (APS) studies have been shown to be a useful tool to predict in a faster and more accurate manner the chemical stability of extemporaneously compounded formulations requiring a minimum amount of formulation, thereby reducing the chemical drug waste per study. Shelf life will be allocated based on scientific data without compromising drug efficacy or safety. In this work, the APS approach was applied to the commercially available Cristalmina® (CR) and an extemporaneously compounded formulation of chlorhexidine (DCHX). A different degradation kinetic was found between DCHX and CR (Avrami vs. zero-order kinetics, respectively). This can explain the different shelf life described by the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements Registration Pharmaceuticals Human Use (ICH) conditions between both formulations. A predicted stability for the DCHX solution was obtained from the extrapolation of the degradation rate in long-term conditions from the Arrhenius equation. The estimated degradation from the Arrhenius equation for DCHX at 5 °C, 25 °C, and 30 °C at 365 days was 3.1%, 17.4%, and 25.9%, respectively. The predicted shelf life, in which the DCHX content was above 90%, was 26.67 months under refrigerated conditions and 5.75 and 2.24 months at 25 and 30 °C, respectively. Currently, the Spanish National Formulary recommends a shelf life of no longer than 3 months at room temperature for DCHX solution. Based on the predicted APS and confirmed by experimental long-term studies, we have demonstrated that the shelf life of DCHX extemporaneously compounded formulations could be prolonged by up to 6 months.
