ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The bonding interface of dental filling therapy is the weak point in resisting secondary caries. Adhesives containing nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) have been demonstrated in vitro to prevent bacteria from producing acid and to promote tooth remineralization. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of adhesive with NACP and DMAHDM to prevent secondary caries in vivo. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Artificial cavities were created on the first molar on both sides of the maxillary in a rat model. One side was treated with adhesive containing NACP + DMAHDM, while on the other side, a commercial adhesive served as control. After 24 days of cariogenic feeding, the degree of secondary caries was evaluated by micro-CT and a modified Keyes scoring method. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and colony-forming unit (CFU) counts were used to evaluate the antibacterial efficacy of the materials. Biocompatibility was also investigated.RESULTS:
In the rat model, the adhesive with NACP + DMAHDM showed excellent biocompatibility and effectively decreased the amount of bacteria. The experimental group demonstrated excellent remineralization effectiveness, with a lower modified Keyes score and mineral loss of 34.16 ± 2.13 vol% µm, compared with 77.44 ± 7.22 vol% µm in the control group, according to micro-CT (P < 0.05), showing excellent capacity to inhibit secondary caries.CONCLUSIONS:
The NACP-DMAHDM-containing adhesive exhibited good performance in preventing secondary caries in vivo. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Adhesives containing NACP and DMAHDM have great potential for use in clinical dentistry to prevent secondary caries by inhibiting bacterial growth and promoting remineralization.Palabras clave
