Effect of APTES- or MPTS-Conditioned Nanozirconia Fillers on Mechanical Properties of Bis-GMA-Based Resin Composites.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the effects of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)- or (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPTS)-conditioned nanozirconia fillers on the mechanical properties of Bis-GMA-based resin composites. The conditioned fillers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermodynamic calculations. They were then used to prepare Bis-GMA-based resin composites, whose flexural strength and elastic modulus were evaluated. The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assessed the composites' cytotoxicity. The FTIR spectra of the conditioned fillers showed new absorption bands at 1569 and 1100 cm^-1, indicating successful grafting of APTES or MPTS onto nanozirconia. XPS confirmed the Zr-O-Si bonds in the APTES- or MPTS-conditioned fillers at contents of 2.02 and 6.98%, respectively. Thermodynamic calculations reaffirmed the chemical binding between the two silanes and nanozirconia fillers. Composites containing the conditioned nanozirconia fillers had significantly greater flexural strengths (APTES, 121.02 ± 8.31 MPa; MPTS, 132.80 ± 15.80 MPa; control, 94.84 ± 9.28 MPa) and elastic moduli (8.76 ± 0.52, 9.24 ± 0.60, and 7.44 ± 0.83 GPa, respectively) than a control with untreated fillers. The cytotoxicity assay identified no significant cytotoxicity by composites containing the conditioned fillers. Silanes were previously considered to be unable to chemically condition zirconia to bond with resin. Inclusion of APTES- or MPTS-conditioned nanozirconia fillers can improve the mechanical properties of Bis-GMA-based resin composites without obvious cytotoxicity in this study.

Project description:BackgroundThere have been concerns surrounding the utilization of Bis-GMA, a type of bisphenol A (BPA) derivative, within the dental industry. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of bulk fill Bis-GMA-free resin composite class II restorations in respect of its marginal integrity in comparison to bulk fill Bis-GMA-containing resin composite class II restorations over a 12-month period in a parallel clinical trial utilizing a split-mouth, double-blind, randomized strategy.Methods20 patients participated in this study. Each patient has received one pair of class II posterior restorations, Bis-GMA-free (Admira fusion x-tra), and Bis-GMA containing (x-tra fil) on each side of the mouth (split-mouth strategy), (n = 40). The restorations' marginal integrity was evaluated based on Ryge's criteria (modified USPHS) at baseline (after 1 week), as well as 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and after 12 months of follow-up by two calibrated examiners. The statistical analyses utilizing the Friedman and Wilcoxon tests, the significance level was adjusted to 0.05.ResultsFollowing the 12-month period, all patients attended the recall visits to evaluate the restorations. The Wilcoxon signed-rank and Friedman tests, revealed that both types of bulk fill had 100% of Alpha (A) scores at baseline and after 1 month with no significant statistical differences. After 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, both tested bulk fill restorations showed Bravo (B) score with Bis-GMA free 10% and 5% for Bis-GMA containing with no statistically significant difference (p ≤ 0.05) for clinical marginal integrity parameter in USPHS criteria.ConclusionsBis-GMA-free resin composites demonstrated satisfactory, marginal integrity compared with Bis-GMA-containing resin composites within 12 months.Trial registrationThe protocol of the current study was registered at www.Clinicaltrialsgov , with the identification number NCT05480852 on 29/07/2022. All procedures involving human participants were performed in accordance with the ethical standards of the Research Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Dentistry, Minia University, Egypt, under the approval number 419 on 27/06/2020.

Project description:Under challenging oral environments, the overall performance of resin composites is affected by bio-aging. This study investigated the effects of saliva biofilm-induced bio-aging on the mechanical properties and microbial behavior of composites with different filler types. Microhybrid, nanohybrid, nano-filled and nano-filled flowable composites were bio-aged with saliva biofilm for 30 days. Surface morphology, roughness, mechanical and aesthetic properties were determined. A 48 h saliva biofilm model was used to evaluate the microbial behavior of different composites in vitro. Biofilm metabolic activity, lactic acid production and live/dead bacterial staining were tested. Six volunteers were selected to wear intra-oral appliances with composite slabs for 24 h and biofilms were collected and analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing to assess the biofilm formation over those materials in situ. Although there were increasing trends, surface roughness, water resorption and material solubility had no significant changes for all groups after bio-aging (p > 0.05). There were no significant changes in elastic modulus for all groups after aging (p > 0.05). However, a decrease in flexural strength in all groups was observed (p < 0.05), except for the nanoflow composite group (p > 0.05). The Vickers hardness remained stable in all groups after aging (p > 0.05), except for the nano-filled group (p < 0.05). The nanoflow composite showed distinct color changes compared to the micro-hybrid group after aging (p < 0.05). Biofilm metabolic activity and lactic acid production in vitro increased slightly after bio-aging in all groups, but with no statistical significance (p > 0.05). The Shannon index diversity of biofilms in situ decreased after aging (p < 0.05), while no significant difference was shown in species composition at the genus level in all groups (p > 0.05). Resin composites with different sized fillers displayed a relatively stable mechanical performance and uncompromised microbial behavior both in vitro and in situ after 30 days of bio-aging. Based on the results, composites with different filler types can be selected flexibly according to clinical needs. However, a longer time for bio-aging is still needed to confirm the mechanical properties and microbial behaviors of composites in the long run.
