Abstract
Introduction Older adults experience significant improvement in their quality of life by using removable prosthetics to replace missing teeth. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has become the most popular material for denture bases due to its ease of use and affordability. Recently, scientists have started adding nanoparticles like titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zirconium oxide (ZrO2) to PMMA to enhance its physical properties. These resins with nanoparticles need to stay the same color after being disinfected in different ways if they are going to be used for a long time. So, the purpose of this investigation was to assess whether or not there exists any difference between two kinds of thermally cured acrylic resin for artificial tooth bases strengthened with nanoparticles when subjected to various chemical sterilizers alongside microwave irradiation, as well as determine their comparative colorfastness levels. Materials and methods In this lab experiment, we tested how well 5% TiO2 and 7% ZrO2 nanoparticle-reinforced PMMA resins held their color when exposed to microwave irradiation, 1% sodium hypochlorite, or sodium perborate disinfection. We made 120 specimens shaped like discs; half were treated using one method, while the other half were treated using a different method. Color was measured at baseline (T0), after one cycle (T1), after five cycles (T2), and after six months (T3) using a reflectance spectrophotometer, which calculates the color difference (∆E). Results All three methods of disinfection caused significant color changes (p<0.001); however, sodium perborate caused the least amount of change, followed by 1% sodium hypochlorite and microwave irradiation. The mean ∆E values showed that after one day, there was a change in color by 1.1 due to microwave disinfection, which increased to 5.7 after five days; on the other hand, for 1% sodium hypochlorite, the change was recorded as 0.7 after one month and 1.6 after three months and finally reached up to 2.6 after six months, while sodium perborate showed the least amount of change, with ∆E values recorded as 0.2 after one month, 0.5 after three months, and 0.8 after six months. Conclusion Sodium perborate proved to be the most effective disinfectant for maintaining color stability in 5% TiO2 and 7% ZrO2 nanoparticle-reinforced PMMA resins, thus making it ideal for routine disinfection. Therefore, according to this study, sodium perborate should be used as a disinfection method because it results in minimal color change in nanoparticle-reinforced PMMA dentures.

Nanoparticle-Modified 3D-Printed Denture Base Resins: Influence of Denture Cleansers on the Color Stability and Surface Roughness In Vitro. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:891. [PMID: 38786847 PMCID: PMC11124355 DOI: 10.3390/nano14100891] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of denture cleansers on the color, stability, and surface roughness of three-dimensional (3D)-printed denture base resins modified with zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (nano-ZrO2). A total of 440 specimens were fabricated using one heat-polymerized resin, and two 3D-printed resins (NextDent and ASIGA). According to the nano-ZrO2 content, the specimens for each resin were divided into five groups (0%, 0.5%wt, 1%wt, 3%wt, and 5%wt). Each concentration was divided into four subgroups (n = 10) based on the immersion solution (distilled water, sodium hypochlorite, Corega, and Fittydent) and immersion duration (360 and 720 days). The color changes (∆E00) and surface roughness (Ra, µm) of each specimen were measured at different time intervals (base line, 360 days, 720 days) using a spectrophotometer and a non-contact profilometer, respectively. The results were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and a post hoc Tukey's test (α = 0.05). Sodium hypochlorite showed the highest significant color change of all the denture base resins (p < 0.001). The average value of ΔE00 for sodium hypochlorite was significantly higher than the values for the other solutions (Fittydent, Corega, and water) (p < 0.001). Color stability was significantly affected by immersion time for all types of solutions except Corega (p < 0.001). All of the tested immersion solutions (distilled water, sodium hypochlorite, Corega, and Fittydent) showed a significant increase in the surface roughness of all the denture base resins (p < 0.05). Surface roughness was substantially increased by immersion time for all types of solution except Fittydent (p < 0.001). Denture cleansers can result in substantial color change and affect the surface roughness of unmodified and nanoparticle-modified denture base resins. Therefore, the selection of denture cleanser and appropriate types of material is critical for denture longevity.

Microbiological, physicomechanical, and surface evaluation of an experimental self-curing acrylic resin containing halloysite nanotubes doped with chlorhexidine. Dent Mater 2024; 40:348-358. [PMID: 38142145 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2023.12.003] [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: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective was to synthesize halloysite nanotubes loaded with chlorhexidine (HNT/CHX) and evaluate the antimicrobial activity, microhardness, color change, and surface characteristics of an experimental self-curing acrylic resin containing varying concentrations of the synthesized nanomaterial. METHODS The characterization of HNT/CHX was carried out by calculating incorporation efficiency, morphological and compositional, chemical and thermal evaluations. SAR disks were made containing 0 %, 3 %, 5 %, and 10 % of HNT/CHX. Specimens (n = 3) were immersed in distilled water and spectral measurements were carried out using UV/Vis spectroscopy to evaluate the release of CHX for up to 50 days. The antimicrobial activity of the composite against Candida albicans and Streptococcus mutans was evaluated by disk-diffusion test. Microhardness, color analyses (ΔE), and surface roughness (Ra) (n = 9) were performed before and after 30 days of immersion. Data were analyzed using ANOVA/Bonferroni. {Results.} The incorporation efficiency of CHX into HNT was of 8.15 %. All test groups showed controlled and cumulative CHX release up to 30 or 50 days. Significant antimicrobial activity was verified against both microorganisms (p < 0.001). After the 30-day immersion period, the 10 % HNT/CHX group showed a significant increase in hardness (p < 0.05) and a progressive color change (p < 0.001). At T0, the 5 % and 10 % groups exhibited Ra values similar to the control group (p > 0.05), while at T30, all groups showed similar roughness values (p > 0.05). {Significance.} The modification of a SAR with HNT/CHX provides antimicrobial effect and controlled release of CHX, however, the immediate surface roughness in the 3 % group was compromised when compared to the control group.

Abstract
Denture cleansers are extensively utilized to inhibit the colonization of various Candida species. Currently, additive technology in denture fabrication has become more prevalent. This study aims to assess the impact of disinfectants on the surface roughness and color stability of distinct denture bases. Disc-shaped samples (N=66) were exposed to three different disinfectants: 0.5% sodium hypochlorite, 1% hydrogen peroxide, and 2% chlorhexidine. The samples underwent evaluation via spectrophotometry and profilometry, respectively. Data analysis was conducted utilizing analysis of variance (ANOVA) (p < 0.05). Within the heat-cured group, sodium hypochlorite resulted in the most notable change in surface roughness (0.2 μm), while chlorhexidine exhibited the least impact (0.001 μm), showing a significant difference (p <0.008). The color change (ΔE) for 3D-printed samples immersed in all disinfectants was higher compared to heat-cured samples. Among the heat-cured samples, chlorhexidine induced the highest ΔE (2.76), while sodium hypochlorite resulted in the lowest (ΔE = 1.44), and this difference was statistically significant (p <0.008). Chlorhexidine caused the most significant color alteration among the solutions, while sodium hypochlorite induced the most considerable changes in surface roughness.

Effect of Denture Cleanser on the Physico-Mechanical Properties of Injection-Molded Thermoplastic Polyamides Denture Base Material: A preliminary Study. Acta Stomatol Croat 2023; 57:329-338. [PMID: 38283308 PMCID: PMC10812917 DOI: 10.15644/asc57/4/4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to assess the color stability, surface roughness, and flexural properties of the injection-molded thermoplastic polyamide Vertex ThermoSens denture base resin following a 3-minute immersion in Polident 3-minute denture cleanser. Methods Sixty specimens (Vertex ThermoSens) were processed and divided into two main groups (n = 30) based on the type of test. Group 1 was further subdivided into two subgroups (n = 15): the control group immersed in distilled water (G1DW) and the test group immersed in Polident cleanser solution (G1PD). Group 2 was divided into three subgroups: a non-immersed group (G2None), a group immersed in distilled water (G2DW), and a group immersed in Polident cleanser solution (G2PD). Color change (∆E) and surface roughness measurements were conducted for group 1, and flexural modulus (E) test was performed for group 2. The CIE Lab* formula was utilized to calculate ∆E. An optical 3D surface analyzer and a three-point bending test were employed for surface roughness and E assessments, respectively. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using a paired-sample t-test for differences within each group before and after immersion. Furthermore, independent-sample t-tests and one-way ANOVA were conducted to analyze differences between groups. A significance level of P < 0.05 was considered. Results The results revealed a slight, statistically insignificant (P > 0.05) ∆E in all color components (L*, a*, b*) after immersion in distilled water. However, after immersion in the denture cleanser, only the L* component exhibited a statistically significant ∆E (P = 0.002), which was slight in magnitude. Additionally, a significant difference was found in the ∆E between G1DW and G1PD, with G1PD showing a higher change (P = 0.007). A significant increase in surface roughness after immersion was observed in G1PD (P = 0.017), with a notable difference between G1DW and G1PD. However, the E remained unaffected (P = 0.537). Conclusion Denture cleansers have the potential to modify the properties of thermoplastic polyamide resin. Further research is needed to explore the clinical implications of these observed changes on denture performance.

Abstract
Denture care and maintenance are necessary for both denture longevity and underlying tissue health. However, the effects of disinfectants on the strength of 3D-printed denture base resins are unclear. Herein, distilled water (DW), effervescent tablet, and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) immersion solutions were used to investigate the flexural properties and hardness of two 3D-printed resins (NextDent and FormLabs) compared with a heat-polymerized resin. The flexural strength and elastic modulus were investigated using the three-point bending test and Vickers hardness test before (baseline) immersion and 180 days after immersion. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test (α = 0.05), and further verified by using electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy. The flexural strength of all the materials decreased after solution immersion (p < 0.001). The effervescent tablet and NaOCl immersion reduced the flexural strength (p < 0.001), with the lowest values recorded with the NaOCl immersion. The elastic modulus did not significantly differ between the baseline and after the DW immersion (p > 0.05), but significantly decreased after the effervescent tablet and NaOCl immersion (p < 0.001). The hardness significantly decreased after immersion in all the solutions (p < 0.001). The immersion of the heat-polymerized and 3D-printed resins in the DW and disinfectant solutions decreased the flexural properties and hardness.

Abstract
(1) Background: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the color change and stability of a zinc oxide nanoparticle-poly(methyl methacrylate) (ZnO NP-PMMA) nanocomposite for denture base material after immersion in different dietary and cleaning agent solutions. (2) Methods: One hundred samples were prepared and divided into four equinumerous groups depending on the weight content of ZnO NPs. The color coordinates (CIE L*a*b*) were measured using a digital colorimeter, ColorReader (Datacolor AG Europe, Rotkreuz, Switzerland), before and after immersion of the specimens in five different solutions (distilled water, coffee, red wine, black tea, denture cleaning tablet solution) for 6 months. The color changes (ΔE) were calculated using Euclidean distance and analyzed by the Shapiro-Wilk test and the ANOVA/Kruskal-Wallis multiple comparison and adequate post hoc tests. (3) Results: All tested materials showed significant color changes after their exposure to all solutions. Color changes were greatest in the case of red wine and progressed with the duration of the study. (4) Conclusions: The modification of PMMA with ZnO nanoparticles is acceptable in aesthetic terms in 2.5% and 5% weight content; however, color changes are more noticeable with higher nanoparticle content and must be discussed with the patient prior to possible use.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the colour stability of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base reinforced with ZrO2 nanoparticles, E-glass fibres, and TiO2 nanoparticles at various concentrations over 180-day storage in Steradent™ (STD) denture cleaner or coffee (CF). A total of 130 disc-shaped specimens were fabricated at various filler concentrations and divided into four main groups to measure the colour changes. Groups Z, T, and E consisted of PMMA reinforced with ZrO2 nanoparticles, TiO2 nanoparticles, or E-glass fibre, respectively, while Group C consisted of PMMA specimens without filler served as the control group (n = 10). The three reinforced groups were further subdivided according to the filler content (n = 10) added to the PMMA (1.5%, 3.0%, 5.0%, and 7.0% wt.%). Half of the specimens were stored in STD, while the other half was stored in CF for 180 days. A Minolta Chroma Meter was used to measure the colour changes (ΔE) at 7, 30, 90 and then 180 days. The results were assessed using two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA) along with Bonferroni post hoc tests at a p ≤ 0.05 significance level. Significant different colour changes (ΔΕ) were observed between all tested groups and across different time points. TiO2-reinforced PMMA in coffee showed the lowest colour stability, while the E-glass fibre-reinforced PMMA in STD/CF showed the highest colour stability. Furthermore, coffee appeared to have the greatest impact on the CF change in comparison to the STD/CF. The results indicated that the filler type and concentration, type of solution, and length of storage all affected the colour stability of the tested specimens.

[PMID: 35323244 PMCID: PMC8947006 DOI: 10.3390/dj10030042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the water sorption, solubility, and translucency of 3D-printed denture base resins (NextDent, FormLabs, and Asiga), compare them to heat-polymerized acrylic denture base resins, and assess their performance under the effects of thermal cycling. A total of 80 acrylic disc specimens were used in the current study, categorized into four groups (n = 10); in one group, the samples were fabricated conventionally with a heat-polymerizing process (control), while the other three groups were fabricated digitally from different 3D-printed reins (NextDent, FormLabs, and Asiga). Specimens were fabricated according to the manufacturers’ recommendations and immersed in distilled water for 48 h at 37 °C. Data on water sorption, solubility, and translucency measurements (T1) were obtained. All the specimens were subjected to 5000 thermal cycles, and then the measures were repeated using the same method (T2). Data analysis was attained via ANOVA and the post hoc Tukey test (α = 0.05). The type of resin significantly affected the values of water sorption, solubility, and translucency (p < 0.001). The water sorption of 3D-printed resins was increased significantly in comparison to control with or without a thermal cycling effect. In terms of solubility, a significant increase in 3D-printed resins before thermocycling was observed; however, after thermocycling, Asiga had a significantly low value compared to the other groups (p < 0.001). Thermal cycling increased the water sorption and solubility of all tested materials. In comparison to control, the translucency of the 3D-printed resins was significantly decreased (p < 0.001). The translucency was significantly decreased per material in terms of the thermal cycling effect (before and after). NextDent showed significantly low translucency values (p < 0.001) compared to the other groups. All 3D-printed resin groups had higher water sorption and solubility and lower translucency values in comparison to the heat-polymerized resin group. Regardless of resin types, thermal cycling adversely affected all tested properties.
