ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Compomers are restorative materials commonly used in pediatric dentistry. It is important to investigate the monomer release of materials used especially in pediatric patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the residual monomer released from different-colored flowable compomers at five polymerization times. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Three experimental groups were formed Group 1 pink flowable compomer (Twinky Star, VOCO, Germany), Group 2 blue flowable compomer (Twinky Star, VOCO), Group 3 white flowable compomer, A2 color of Dyract XP (Dentslpy DeTrey, Konstanz, Germany). For each group, samples were prepared using standard cylindrical Teflon molds (n = 10), and the compomers were cured using a light-emitting diode (LED) source in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. During each time period, the number of residual monomers bisphenol-A glycidyl methacrylate (bis-GMA), urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA), hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) were determined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). All data were analyzed statistically.RESULTS:
In all groups, the amount of residual monomers increased after 1-h release periods (P < 0.05). For 2 weeks, the total residual monomers released were determined at most in Group 3 and at least in Group 1. However, there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of released amounts of monomers (P > 0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
According to the study, when the total amount of residual monomer released from all groups was compared, no difference was found and it was observed that none of them exceeded the toxic dose. Flowable colored compomers can be used as safely as white compomers in pediatric dentistry.
