Abstract
Chitosan (Ch) is a naturally occurring biocompatible and bio-degradable material with high corrosion protective capacities for metals in various corrosive media. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a significant biodegradable and bioactive material. In the present work, chitosan-hydroxyapatite (Ch-HA) composite coatings with various concentrations of chitosan were made on 316L stainless steel (316L SS) using sol-gel dip coating technique. The coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR, SEM, and electrochemical measurements. The surface morphology results (SEM) of coated implants exposed the fairly dense microstructures having uniformity without cracks and pores indicating that coating was successfully deposited. From electrochemical analyses, it was observed that the value of corrosion current density and the corrosion rate decreased from 6.03 to 0.15 and 5.56-0.13 respectively indicating that 1.5gCh-HA is the best coating concentration. The electrochemical results demonstrated an improvement in the corrosion resistance of 316L SS than the bare one. The decrease in slope and loop area of cyclic voltammograms reveals about improvement in corrosion resistance. This increment in corrosion resistance of the Ch-HA coated SS implant in the artificial saliva is as 1.5gCh-HA > 2gCh-HA >1gCh-HA >0.5gCh-HA. Furthermore, Ch-HA coatings revealed appropriate adhesion with 316L SS substrate for its use in dental implants.

Abstract
Background Composites with 0.2% chitosan nanoparticles (CSN) are used recently; however, this combination needs to be studied in different cavity designs. Aims The aim of the study was to compare the fracture resistance of maxillary premolars with different cavity geometries restored with different types of composite resins incorporated with 0.2% CSN. Methods About 130 extracted human single-rooted maxillary premolars were embedded in acrylic molds 2 mm below cementoenamel junction, divided into five groups for cavity preparations of standardized dimensions. Group 1: (control) intact teeth (n = 10), Group 2: Class I cavities (n = 40), Group 3: Class II mesio-occlusal (MO) (n = 40), Group 4: Class II mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) (n = 40). Groups 2, 3, and 4 were subdivided into four subgroups for composite restoration; A: Neo spectra ST-Universal (NST); B: Tetric N-Ceram Bulk-fill (TNC); C: NST + CSN; and D: TNC + CSN and tested for fracture resistance using universal testing machine. Statistical Analysis One-way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey's tests were used for data analysis (P ≤ 0.05). Results In all groups, the highest fracture resistance was found in MOD cavities, followed by MO and least in Class I cavities. Subgroup D (TNC with CSN) showed the highest fracture resistance in all groups (P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion Tetric N-Ceramic bulk fill with 0.25% CSN showed high fracture resistance in cavities with different geometries.

[PMID: 38134585 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.106323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE to investigate the effect of different concentrations of chitosan added to experimental resins containing either BAPO or camphorquinone (CQ) as photoinitiators, regarding degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (FS), flexural elastic modulus (E), Knoop microhardness (KHN), cytotoxicity, genotoxicity and antimicrobial activity. METHODS Experimental resins with polymeric matrix of BisGMA and TEGDMA was added either 0.5 wt% BAPO or 0.5 wt% camphorquinone/0.2% amine along with and chitosan concentrations of 0.5%; 1.0% or 2.0%. Degree of conversion was measured using Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. Flexural strength and elastic modulus were obtained through three-point bending test and Knoop microhardness was measured in a microidenter. Direct cytotoxicity was performed in human keratinocytes and genotoxicity test was done in murine macrophages cells. Antimicrobial activity was acessed against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans through the inhibition halo. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey teste (α = 0.05). RESULTS The materials containing photoinitiator BAPO showed higher values of DC, FS, E, and KHN compared to resins with CQ. The addition of chitosan did not affect the properties of these materials. However, in resins containing CQ, the addition of chitosan improve these properties compared to control group. For the groups containing BAPO the chitosan reduced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity compared to materials with camphorquinone. The materials with 1.0% and 2.0% chitosan showed increased antibacterial activity in the materials containing BAPO as photoinitiator for both bacteria. SIGNIFICANCE The alternative photoinitiator BAPO and chitosan can improve physical and biological properties of photoactivated resins when compared with the materials with photoinitiator camphorquinone.

[PMID: 37894948 PMCID: PMC10607225 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242015270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
We conducted a meta-analysis and systematic review to investigate the efficacy of chitosan-containing chewing gums, and to test their inhibitory effects on Streptococcus mutans. The systematic search was performed in three databases (Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed) and included English-language randomized-controlled trials to compare the efficacy of chitosan in reducing the number of S. mutans. To assess the certainty of evidence, the GRADE tool was used. Mean differences were calculated with a 95% confidence interval for one outcome: bacterial counts in CFU/mL. The protocol of the study was registered on PROSPERO, registration number CRD42022365006. Articles were downloaded (n = 6758) from EMBASE (n = 2255), PubMed (n = 1516), and Cochrane (n = 2987). After the selection process, a total of four articles were included in the qualitative synthesis and three in the quantitative synthesis. Our results show that chitosan reduced the number of bacteria. The difference in mean quantity was -4.68 × 105. The interval of the random-effects model was [-2.15 × 106; 1.21 × 106] and the prediction interval was [1.03 × 107; 9.40 × 106]. The I2 value was 98% (p = 0.35), which indicates a high degree of heterogeneity. Chitosan has some antibacterial effects when used as a component of chewing gum, but further studies are needed. It can be a promising antimicrobial agent for prevention.

The effect of quaternary ammonium polyethylenimine nanoparticles on bacterial adherence, cytotoxicity, and physical and mechanical properties of experimental dental composites. Sci Rep 2023; 13:17497. [PMID: 37840040 PMCID: PMC10577145 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43851-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023] Open
Abstract
A significant problem related to the functioning of resin-based composites for dental fillings is secondary or recurrent caries, which is the reason for the need for repeated treatment. The cross-linked quaternary ammonium polyethylenimine nanoparticles (QA-PEI-NPs) have been shown to be a promising antibacterial agent against different bacteria, including cariogenic ones. However, little is known about the properties of dental dimethacrylate polymer-based composites enriched with QA-PEI-NPs. This research was carried out on experimental composites based on bis-GMA/UDMA/TEGDMA matrix enriched with 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 3 (wt%) QA-PEI-NPs and reinforced with two glass fillers. The cured composites were tested for their adherence of Streptococcus Mutans bacteria, cell viability (MTT assay) with 48 h and 10-days extracts , degree of conversion (DC), water sorption (WSO), and solubility (WSL), water contact angle (CA), flexural modulus (E), flexural strength (FS), compressive strength (CS), and Vickers microhardness (HV). The investigated materials have shown a complete reduction in bacteria adherence and satisfactory biocompatibility. The QA-PEI-NPs additive has no effect on the DC, VH, and E values. QA-PEI-NPs increased the CA (a favorable change), the WSO and WSL (unfavorable changes) and decreased flexural strength, and compressive strength (unfavorable changes). The changes mentioned were insignificant and acceptable for most composites, excluding the highest antibacterial filler content. Probably the reason for the deterioration of some properties was low compatibility between filler particles and the matrix; therefore, it is worth extending the research by surface modification of QA-PEI-NPs to achieve the optimum performance characteristics.

Mechanical and antibacterial properties of an experimental flowable composite containing Nb 2O 5 and NF_TiO 2 nanoparticles. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 143:105919.

Abstract
This study developed an experimental flowable composite incorporated with niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) combined or not with titanium dioxide co-doped with fluorine and nitrogen (NF_TiO2) and evaluated the mechanical and antibacterial properties. The experimental flowable composite (TEGDMA + BisGMA 1:1 + 60%wt - inorganic filler - borosilicate 0.7 μm) was formulated according to the type and concentration of Nb2O5 and NF_TiO2 (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 wt%) or NF_TiO2 + Nb2O5 (0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 wt% - 1:1). The control groups were formed by the experimental composite without the incorporation of Nb2O5 and/or NF_TiO2 (GC-E) and by a commercial flowable composite (GC). The characterization of the surface of the composite and its particles was carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive x-rays (EDX). Specimens were manufactured and subjected to mechanical tests of flexural strength (FS) (n = 12), flexural modulus (FM) (n = 12), roughness (Ra) (n = 10), microhardness (n = 10), and contact angle (n = 10); and, to evaluate the antibacterial activity, they were submitted to tests of biofilm formation against S. mutans (CFU/mL) (n = 5), biofilm biomass by dry weight (n = 5) and confocal laser microscopy (%LIVE/DEAD) (n = 5). Data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc and, those that were not homoscedastic, but with normality, were submitted to Welch's ANOVA and Games-Howell's post-hoc. Dunnet's test was used to compare the controls with the other experimental groups (α = 5). The Nb2O5 particles had an average size of 32.4 μm and the nanoparticles (NPs) of NF_TiO2, 10 nm. EDX analysis identified isolated peaks of N, F, Ti, and Nb confirming the presence of these particles in the resin matrix. The 1.5% NF_TiO2 group had a higher FS and FM than the controls (p < 0.05). GC showed higher microhardness between groups (p < 0.05). There was no difference between the experimental groups regarding contact angle and roughness (p > 0.05), except for GC, which had the highest Ra values and the lowest contact angle between groups (p < 0.05). Composites containing 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2% Nb2O5, 1%, 1.5%, and 2% NF_TiO2 and 2% Nb2O5 + NF_TiO2 showed lower biofilm formation (p < 0.05), lower total biofilm biomass (p < 0.05), and a higher percentage of dead cells (44%, 52%, 52%, 79%, 42% 43%, 62%, 65%, respectively) than GC and GC-E (5% and 1%, respectively). It is concluded that the incorporation of 1.5% NF_TiO2 promoted a greater FS and FM among the experimental composites and that the addition of Nb2O5 particles (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%), NF_TiO2 (1%, 1.5% and 2%) and the combination Nb2O5 + NF_TiO2 (2%) showed significant antibacterial effects.

Abstract
As the mechanical properties of resin-based dental composite materials are highly relevant in clinical practice, diverse strategies for their potential enhancement have been proposed in the extant literature, aiming to facilitate their reliable use in dental medicine. In this context, the focus is primarily given to the mechanical properties with the greatest influence on clinical success, i.e., the longevity of the filling in the patient's mouth and its ability to withstand very strong masticatory forces. Guided by these objectives, the goal of the present study was to ascertain whether the reinforcement of dental composite resins with electrospun polyamide (PA) nanofibers would improve the mechanical strength of dental restoration materials. For this purpose, light-cure dental composite resins were interspersed with one and two layers comprising PA nanofibers in order to investigate the influence of such reinforcement on the mechanical properties of the resulting hybrid resins. One set of the obtained samples was investigated as prepared, while another set was immersed in artificial saliva for 14 days and was subsequently subjected to the same set of analyses, namely Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Findings yielded by the FTIR analysis confirmed the structure of the produced dental composite resin material. They also provided evidence that, while the presence of PA nanofibers did not influence the curing process, it strengthened the dental composite resin. Moreover, flexural strength measurements revealed that the inclusion of a 16 μm-thick PA nanolayer enabled the dental composite resin to withstand a load of 3.2 MPa. These findings were supported by the SEM results, which further indicated that immersing the resin in saline solution resulted in a more compact composite material structure. Finally, DSC results indicated that as-prepared as well as saline-treated reinforced samples had a lower glass transition temperature (Tg) compared to pure resin. Specifically, while pure resin had a Tg of 61.6 °C, each additional PA nanolayer decreased the Tg by about 2 °C, while the further reduction was obtained when samples were immersed in saline for 14 days. These results show that electrospinning is a facile method for producing different nanofibers that can be incorporated into resin-based dental composite materials to modify their mechanical properties. Moreover, while their inclusion strengthens the resin-based dental composite materials, it does not affect the course and outcome of the polymerization reaction, which is an important factor for their use in clinical practice.

Abstract
Chitin is a natural polymeric polysaccharide extracted from marine crustaceans, and chitosan is obtained by removing part of the acetyl group (usually more than 60 %) in chitin's structure. Chitosan has attracted wide attention from researchers worldwide due to its good biodegradability, biocompatibility, hypoallergenic and biological activities (antibacterial, immune and antitumor activities). However, research has shown that chitosan does not melt or dissolve in water, alkaline solutions and general organic solvents, which greatly limits its application range. Therefore, researchers have carried out extensive and in-depth chemical modification of chitosan and prepared a variety of chitosan derivatives, which have expanded the application field of chitosan. Among them, the most extensive research has been conducted in the pharmaceutical field. This paper summarizes the application of chitosan and chitosan derivatives in medical materials over the past five years.

Abstract
Background Streptococcus mutans is a Gram-positive opportunistic bacterial pathogen and that causes dental caries and then restorative treatment remains the best clinical practice approach to repair and prevent dental caries. Aims This study compared the antimicrobial performance of resin modified glass ionomer cement (RM-GIC) and ACTIVA restoratives by evaluating the S. mutans count, pH levels, and plaque index (PI) scores before and on the 7th day of restoration, and then determined the antimicrobial activities against S. mutans ATCC 25175 in both restoratives in vitro. Materials and Methods Seventy-eight eligible Saudi female participants, with class II carious lesions, were randomly distributed into RM-GIC and ACTIVA restorative groups. We evaluated the S. mutans count by the serial dilution technique and salivary pH by using a portable pH meter. The PI scores were determined by Silness-Löe method and the antibacterial activity by the agar well diffusion method. Statistical analysis of normality distribution was performed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and the difference between groups was an analysis by paired t-test. In addition, the independent sample was compared with the independent samples t-test. Results Both groups reduced the S. mutans count, pH acidity, and PI scores, and this reduction was statistically significant on the 7th day of restoration (P < 0.05), preference for ACTIVA. The in vitro antibacterial activity against S. mutans ATCC 25175 showed a non-significant difference between both bioactive restorative materials (P < 0.05). Conclusion The novel application of ACTIVA restorative material is a promising option for patients at risk of caries.

Abstract
Chitosan particles loaded with dibasic calcium phosphate anhydrous (DCPA) is a promising strategy for combining antimicrobial and osteoconduction properties in regenerative medicine. However, mostly micrometer-sized particles have been reported in the literature, limiting their use and reducing their effect in the biomedical field. We have recently overcome this limitation by developing submicrometer-sized particles with electrospray technique. The objective of this study was to understand how the process parameters control the size and properties of submicrometer chitosan particles loaded with DCPA. Solutions of 10 mg/mL chitosan and 2.5 mg/mL DCPA in a 90% acetic acid were electrosprayed under three distinct flow rate conditions: 0.2, 0.5, and 1.0 mL/h. The particles were crosslinked in a glutaraldehyde atmosphere and characterized in terms of their morphology, inorganic content, zeta potential, and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against S. mutans. All conditions showed particles with two similar morphologies: one small-sized with a spherical shape and another larger-sized with a bi-concave shape. All generated a broad particle size distribution, with a similar mean size of ~ 235 nm. The addition of DCPA decreased the zeta potential for all the samples, but it was above 30 mV, indicating a low aggregation potential. The lower flow rate showed the worst efficacy for DCPA incorporation. Antimicrobial activity was greater in chitosan/DCPA particles with flow rate of 0.5 mL/h. It can be concluded that the flow rate of 0.5 mL/h presents the best compromise solution in terms of morphology, zeta potential, MIC, and inorganic content.

Abstract
The development of restorative materials containing antibacterial agents is an alternative to reduce the progression of caries lesions. OBJECTIVE to compare the influence of the degree of crosslinking of chitosan particles loaded with dibasic calcium phosphate (DCPA) on the mechanical properties, degree of conversion (DC), and antimicrobial properties of experimental composites. METHODS Chitosan/DCPA particles were synthesized by the electrospraying, crosslinked by 0, 8, or 16 h in glutaraldehyde, and characterized by zeta potential and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against S. mutans. Experimental resin composites of Bis-GMA and TEGDMA and 59.5% of barium glass were synthesized, chitosan/DCPA particles were added at 0 or 0.5 wt% with the different crosslinking time. The materials were subject to DC analysis, three-point bending test at 24 h and 7 days, and antimicrobial assays. Data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey test (α = 0.05). RESULTS The particles with longer crosslinking time presented higher zeta potential and MIC, and the composite containing these particles showed significantly higher biofilm inhibition than the control group. The other two groups were similar to each other and the control. The composite containing particles with 88 h crosslinking time showed the lowest flexural strength at 7 days in water, and materials with non-crosslinked particles and longer crosslinking time presented flexural strength similar to control. The flexural modulus and DC showed no statistical difference among groups. SIGNIFICANCE composite resin containing 0.5% chitosan/DCPA particles crosslinked by 16 h showed a reduction of biofilm formation without affecting the mechanical properties in relation to the control.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BGs) have been a focus of research for over five decades for several biomedical applications. Although their use in bone substitution and bone tissue regeneration has gained important attention, recent developments have also seen the expansion of BG applications to the field of soft tissue engineering. Hard and soft tissue repair therapies can benefit from the biological activity of metallic ions released from BGs. These metallic ions are incorporated in the BG network not only for their biological therapeutic effects but also in many cases for influencing the structure and processability of the glass and to impart extra functional properties. The "classical" elements in silicate BG compositions are silicon (Si), phosphorous (P), calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), and potassium (K). In addition, other well-recognized biologically active ions have been incorporated in BGs to provide osteogenic, angiogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial effects such as zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), strontium (Sr), gallium (Ga), fluorine (F), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), boron (B), lithium (Li), titanium (Ti), and copper (Cu). More recently, rare earth and other elements considered less common or, some of them, even "exotic" for biomedical applications, have found room as doping elements in BGs to enhance their biological and physical properties. For example, barium (Ba), bismuth (Bi), chlorine (Cl), chromium (Cr), dysprosium (Dy), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), ytterbium (Yb), thulium (Tm), germanium (Ge), gold (Au), holmium (Ho), iodine (I), lanthanum (La), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), niobium (Nb), nitrogen (N), palladium (Pd), rubidium (Rb), samarium (Sm), selenium (Se), tantalum (Ta), tellurium (Te), terbium (Tb), erbium (Er), tin (Sn), tungsten (W), vanadium (V), yttrium (Y) as well as zirconium (Zr) have been included in BGs. These ions have been found to be particularly interesting for enhancing the biological performance of doped BGs in novel compositions for tissue repair (both hard and soft tissue) and for providing, in some cases, extra functionalities to the BG, for example fluorescence, luminescence, radiation shielding, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. This review summarizes the influence of incorporating such less-common elements in BGs with focus on tissue engineering applications, usually exploiting the bioactivity of the BG in combination with other functional properties imparted by the presence of the added elements.

Abstract
Repairing tooth defects with dental resin composites is currently the most commonly used method due to their tooth-colored esthetics and photocuring properties. However, the higher than desirable failure rate and moderate service life are the biggest challenges the composites currently face. Secondary caries is one of the most common reasons leading to repair failure. Therefore, many attempts have been carried out on the development of a new generation of antimicrobial and therapeutic dental polymer composite materials to inhibit dental caries and prolong the lifespan of restorations. These new antimicrobial materials can inhibit the formation of biofilms, reduce acid production from bacteria and the occurrence of secondary caries. These results are encouraging and open the doors to future clinical studies on the therapeutic value of antimicrobial dental resin-based restoratives. However, antimicrobial resins still face challenges such as biocompatibility, drug resistance and uncontrolled release of antimicrobial agents. In the future, we should focus on the development of more efficient, durable and smart antimicrobial dental resins. This article focuses on the most recent 5 years of research, reviews the current antimicrobial strategies of composite resins, and introduces representative antimicrobial agents and their antimicrobial mechanisms.

Abstract
Loading propolis by a simple process using genipin as a crosslinking agent and fabrication of a novel PVA/Chitosan-Propolis membrane scaffolds were reported for wound dressing applications. The research is focused on the effects of propolis on characterization properties of membrane such as chemical structure, surface morphology, degradation ratio, crystallinity, hydrophilicity, water uptake capacity, water vapour transmission rate and mechanical aspect. It was noticed that water uptake capacity and hydrophilicity properties of membrane considerably affected by the propolis. By addition of (0.50, % v/v) propolis, the contact angle of the PVA/Chitosan membrane was remarkably decreased from 86.29° ± 3 to 45 ± 2°. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl-2-yl)-2,5-diphenylte-trazolium (MTT) bromide test and SEM were used to analyse the cytocompatibility of the membranes and morphology of cells on membrane. The propolis incorporated membrane showed cell proliferation rate 176 ± 13%, 775 ± 1%, and 853 ± 23%, at 24 h, 27 h and 120 h, respectively. SEM images also supported the cell behaviour on membrane. DNA fragmentation was also investigated with genotoxicity test. The studies on the interactions between membranes and MEF cells revealed that the incorporation of propolis into membrane promoted cell proliferation. These overall results presented that propolis incorporated membranes could have potentially appealing application as scaffolds for wound healing applications.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and toxicity of glass ionomer cement (GIC) modified with 5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)phenol (thymol) against Streptococcus mutans in silico and in vitro. The antimicrobial activity of thymol on GIC modified with concentrations of 2% (GIC-2) and 4% (GIC-4) was evaluated in a model of planktonic cell biofilm using agar diffusion test, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), dynamic biofilm (continuous flow cell parallel), and bacterial kinetics. Conventional GIC (GIC-0) was used as a control. Thymol toxicity was evaluated in Artemia salina and in silico using Osiris® software. Differences between groups were estimated by analysis of variance, followed by Tukey post hoc test, with a 5% significance level. The results of the agar diffusion test between groups were not significantly different (P≥0.05). Thymol had potential bacteriostatic and bactericidal activity against Streptococcus mutans with respect to planktonic growth, with MIC of 100 µg/mL and MBC of 400 µg/mL. The groups GIC-0, GIC-2, and GIC-4 reduced the biofilm by approximately 10, 85, and 95%, respectively. Bacterial kinetics showed efficiency of the modified GICs for up to 96 h. GIC with thymol was effective against S. mutans, with significant inhibition of the biofilms. Analyses in silico and using Artemia salina resulted in no relevant toxicity, suggesting potential for use in humans. GIC-2 was effective against S. mutans biofilm, with decreased cell viability.

Abstract
AIM To analyse the influence of the degree of conversion (DC) and light curing residues of different bulk fills (BFs) composites on the inflammatory profile in the subcutaneous tissue of rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Resin disks of BF-resins and their active conventional resins (CR; 3M®, Ivoclar®, and Kerr®) were light-cured at 2 mm (BF-superficial) and 4 mm (BF-deep) thicknesses and analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR; n = 3/group; DC and light curing residues). Then, the disks were implanted in four quadrants in the subcutaneous tissue of Wistar rats (sham, CR, BF-superficial and RF-deep), and after 7, 14, and 28 days, the animals (n = 6/day) were euthanized for histological analysis of the intensity of the inflammatory process (scores 0-3). Kruskal-Wallis/Dunn and ANOVA/Bonferroni tests were used (p < 0.05, Graph Pad Prism 5.0). RESULTS The DC of CR 3M® did not differ significantly compared to BF-superficial and BF-deep resins (p = 0.235). The Ivoclar® and Kerr® resins showed a higher DC with CR and BF-superficial compared to the BF-deep (p = 0.005 and p = 0.011, rctively). Kerr® resins showed a higher Bis-GMA/UDMA ratio, especially in BF-deep resin (p < 0.05). 3M® and Ivoclar resins did not show high inflammation scores, but for Kerr® BF resins (superficial and deep), the inflammatory process was significantly higher than that in the CR and sham quadrants (p = 0.031). CONCLUSION The tissue inflammatory response after resin inoculation depends on the DC and light curing residues of Bis-GMA.
