RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: to assess the impact of universal adhesives, cured with single-peak and polywave LEDs, on the metabolic activity and cytokine release of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). In addition, analyze the degree of conversion (DC) of the adhesives cured with the different LEDs. METHODS: Discs (5 mm diameter, 1 mm thick) were prepared using three universal adhesives: Single Bond Universal (SBU, 3 M ESPE), Optibond Universal (OBU, Kerr), and Zipbond Universal (ZBU, SDI). These discs were cured for 40 s using a single-peak (DeepCure, 3 M ESPE) or a polywave light-emmiting diode (LED) curing unit (Valo Grand, Ultradent). After 24 h, the specimens were placed in 24-well culture plates, each containing 1 mL of culture medium for 24 h. hDPSCs (1.8 ×104) were seeded in 96-well plates and allowed to grow for 24 h. Subsequently, the cells were exposed to the extracts (culture medium containing eluates from the adhesive discs) for an additional 24 h. Cells not exposed to the extracts were used as a control group. The mitochondrial metabolism was assessed using the MTT assay and the cytokine release evaluated through MAGPIX. The degree of conversion of the adhesives was analyzed using FTIR (n = 5). The results were analyzed by ANOVA two-way and Tukey's test. RESULTS: OBU and ZBU eluates caused a statistically significant reduction in mitochondrial metabolism, regardless of the LED used, indicating their cytotoxicity. In contrast, SBU did not significantly affect the MTT results, resembling the control group. A higher release of cytokines IL-1, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α were found in association to ZBU. SBU, on the other hand, increased the release of IL-8. OBU did not influenced the cytokine release. SBU presented the higher DC, while OBU and ZBU had similar DC, lower than SBU. SIGNIFICANCE: In conclusion, universal adhesives exhibit toxicity towards hDPSCs, but the extent of toxicity varies depending on the adhesive material. ZBU was associated with increased cytokine release, particularly pro-inflammatory mediators, from hDPSCs. The different LEDs did not influenced the cytotoxicity of the evaluated adhesives.

BACKGROUND: Safety issues for dental restorative composites are critical to material selection, but, limited information is available to dental practitioners. This study aimed to compare the chemical and biological characteristics of three nanohybrid dental composites by assessing filler particle analysis, monomer degree of conversion (DC), the composition of eluates, and cytotoxicity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in fibroblasts. METHODS: Three nanohybrid composites (TN, Tetric N-Ceram; CX, Ceram X Sphere Tec One; and DN, DenFil NX) were used. The size distribution and morphology of the filler particles were analysed using scanning electron microscopy (n = 5). The DC was measured via micro-Raman spectroscopy (n = 5). For the component analysis, methanol eluates from the light-polymerised composites were evaluated by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (n = 3). The eluates were prepared from the polymerised composites after 24 h in a cell culture medium. A live/dead assay (n = 9) and Water-Soluble Tetrazolium-1 assay (n = 9) were performed and compared with negative and positive controls. The ROS in composites were compared with NC. Statistical significance in differences was assessed using a t-test and ANOVA (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Morphological variations in different-sized fillers were observed in the composites. The DC values were not significantly different among the composites. The amounts of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) were higher in TN than DN (p = 0.0022) and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) in CX was higher than in others (p < 0.0001). The lowest cell viability was shown in CX (p < 0.0001) and the highest ROS formation was detected in TN (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Three nanohybrid dental composites exhibited various compositions of filler sizes and resin components, resulting in different levels of cytotoxicity and ROS production. Chemical compositions of dental composites can be considered with their biological impact on safety issues in the intraoral use of dental restorative composites. CX with the highest TEGDMA showed the highest cytotoxicity induced by ROS accumulation. DN with lower TEGDMA and HEMA presented the highest cell viability.

En los últimos años surge el concepto de Una Sola Salud que reconoce la interdependencia sistémica al observar que los cambios en la salud humana se expresan de manera sincrónica e indivisible de la salud del ambiente. Nuevas enfermedades y daños crónicos inespecíficos ocurren a la par de la pérdida de biodiversidad y vitalidad. En las últimas décadas venimos observando el surgimiento de "adaptaciones sistémicas" que requieren un abordaje desde la clínica y la toxicología a nivel individual y desde la epidemiología de la complejidad a nivel poblacional. Luego de un largo recorrido de investigaciones, el Hospital Italiano formalizó el consultorio de Salud Ambiental con la intención de brindar respuesta a la demanda de pacientes que atribuyen síntomas y signos a la polución ambiental.

In recent years, the concept of One Health has emerged, recognizing the systemic interdependence and the changes in human health that are expressed synchronously and indivisible from the environment. New diseases and nonspecific chronic damage are occuring in parallel with the loss of biodiversity and vitality.In recent decades we have observed the appearance of "systemic adaptations" that require a clinical and toxicological approach at the individual level, and address the population level from an epidemiological and complexity science paradigm. After many years of research, the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires formalized the Environmental Health consulting office and the measurement of glyphosate levels, giving answer to the demand of patients who associate their signs and symptoms to environmental pollution.

OBJECTIVES: Several anti-proteolytic dentin therapies are being exhaustively studied in an attempt to reduce dentin bond degradation and improve clinical performance and longevity of adhesive restorations. This study assessed the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on long-term bond strength when incorporated into adhesives. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Adhesive systems were formulated with EGCG concentrations of 0 wt%: (no EGCG; control); 0.5 wt% EGCG; 1.0 wt% EGCG, and 1.5 wt% EGCG. Flexural strength (FS), modulus of elasticity (ME), modulus of resilience (MR), compressive strength (CS), degree of conversion (DC), polymerization shrinkage (PS), percentage of water sorption (%WS), percentage of water solubility (%WL) and cytotoxicity properties were tested. Dentin microtensile bond strength (µTBS) was evaluated after 24 h and again after 6 months of water storage. The adhesive interface was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS: No significant differences were found among the groups in terms of FS, ME, MR, CS and PS. EGCG-doped adhesives increased the DC relative to the control group. EGCG concentrations of 1.0 wt% and 0.5 wt% decreased the WS of adhesives. WL decreased in all cases in which EGCG was added to adhesives, regardless of the concentration. EGCG concentrations of 1.0 wt% and 0.5 wt% reduced cytotoxicity. EGCG concentrations of 1.0 wt% and 0.5 wt% preserved µTBS after 6 months of storage, while 1.5 wt% EGCG significantly decreased µTBS. SEM: the integrity of the hybrid layer was maintained in the 0.5 wt% and 1.0 wt% EGCG groups. CONCLUSION: EGCG concentrations of 1.0 wt% and 0.5 wt% showed better biological and mechanical performance, preserved bond strength and adhesive interface, and reduced cytotoxicity.

PURPOSE: To qualitatively and quantitatively compare the cytotoxic potentials of five different one-step self-etching adhesives: Prime&Bond One-Select (PB-OS), Optibond All-in-One (OB-AIO), G-Bond (GB), Clearfil Universal Bond (CUB), Single Bond Universal (SBU). MATERIALS AND METHODS: During the first stage of the study, the cytotoxic activities of the test materials were evaluated qualitatively using the direct contact method. In this method, the test materials were placed directly into a monkey kidney epithelial cell culture medium. Reaction zones which occurred in the culture medium were evaluated, in addition to the density and changes in the morphology of the cells. During the second stage, the cytotoxic potential of four different dilutions (1%, 0.1%, 0.01%, 0.001%) of the test materials on L929 rat fibroblast cells was quantitatively evaluated at three different time periods (24 h, 48 h, 72 h) with the MTT tetrazolium-based assay. RESULTS: In the first stage, a zone exceeding 1 cm was observed around or below SBU, CUB, GB and OB-AIO. In PB-OS, the zone borders were approximately 1 cm. In the second stage after the MTT assay, CUB was the most cytotoxic after 24 h, GB and SBU after 48 h, and OB-AIO after 72 h. CONCLUSION: All adhesives tested showed different degrees of cytotoxicity, which statistically significantly increased with dose. Changes were seen related to time.

HPMA (hydroxypropyl methacrylate) and Bis-GMA (bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate), the main ingredients, and styrene, TEGDMA (triethylene glycol dimethacrylate), BPO (benzoyl peroxide) and camphoroquinone, the photo-initiators, and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), the photocatalyst were mixed by different ratios and stirred to investigate the compatibility of dental materials with photoinitiators. The degree of polymerization was checked and determination of the most ideal ratio for photopolymerization was followed by establishing the basic combination of styrene, HPMA, Bis-GMA, BHT, TEGDMA and HEMA. The mixture made in accordance to the predetermined ratio was stirred for 24 hours and was polymerized at a wavelength of 440 to 480 nm for 40 secs. The physical properties of each combination were also evaluated to analyze the functionality of the prepared resin cement. And also, the cytotoxicity of the samples was tested, and as a result, the cell lysis rate was 0% in negative control and 100% in positive control and 0% in S-1 combination which indicates that it does not possess cytotoxicity against cultured cells. It is considered suitable for commercializing and will be highly applicable as high quality dental resin cement.

Bisphenol-A (BPA) is widely used in the environment. The objective of this study was to investigate the histological reproductive toxicity of BPA in the adult male albino rats. Forty-five adult male albino rats were divided into 3 groups. Group I received normal saline orally daily (negative control); Group II received corn oil (0.5 ml/day) orally daily (positive control, and Group III were treated with BPA in a dose of 25 mg/kg B.W dissolved in corn oil for 30 days orally. Specimens from the testis, epididymis, prostate and seminal vesicles were collected for light microscopic examination. Blood samples were collected for serum testosterone level assessment. BPA caused histopathological alterations in the epithelium and connective tissues of all organs. Results of the serum testosterone level statistical analysis showed a highly significant decrease in BPA-treated group (III) as compared to the control groups (I & II). The epithelium of the accessory sex glands (prostate and seminal vesicles) responds to BPA by proliferative differentiation. The mean area percentage of collagen fibers stained with Masson's trichrome measured in the stroma of all organs was significantly increased. Also, there was a significant increase in the area percentage of positive inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) immunoreactions in all organs. In conclusion, BPA induced DNA oxidative damage via iNOS activity in all reproductive organs

OBJECTIVE: To compare cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of novel urethane-based monomer FIT-852 and monoacylphosphine oxide photoinitiator (Lucirin TPO) with conventional Bisphenol A-glycidyl-methacrylate (BisGMA) and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) monomers and camphorquinone (CQ)/amine photoinitiator system, respectively. Moreover, we quantified and analyzed the combinatorial effects of individual substances in resin-based mixtures concerning the nature of the combinatorial effects. METHODS: Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of BisGMA, FIT, TEGDMA, CQ, DMAEMA and TPO and their combined toxicity in four clinically relevant mixtures (FIT/TPO, FIT/CQ, BisGMA/TPO, BisGMA/CQ) were tested on human fetal lung fibroblasts MRC-5 using MTT and Comet assays. We assessed combination effects of monomers and photoinitiators on overall toxicity from the measured concentration-effect relationships. Combination index (CI) was calculated on the basis of the median-effect equation derived from the mass-action law principle. RESULTS: Individual substances showed decreasing cytotoxic effects in the following order: BisGMA>TPO>FIT>CQ>DMAEMA>TEGDMA. Experimental mixtures showed decreasing cytotoxic effects in the order BisGMA/TPO>BisGMA/CQ>FIT/CQ>FIT/TPO. FIT-based mixtures exhibited antagonistic cytotoxic effects between components while BisGMA-based mixtures demonstrated synergistic effects at ED50. TPO amplified both antagonistic and synergistic cytotoxic effects in mixtures. Pure substances showed genotoxicity in the following order: TPO>BisGMA>FIT>CQ>TEGDMA. We did not detect the genotoxic potential of DMAEMA. The rank of genotoxic concentrations of the mixtures was: BisGMA/TPO>BisGMA/CQ>FIT/CQ>FIT/TPO. SIGNIFICANCE: Lower cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of FIT than BisGMA suggests its greater biocompatibility. Conversely, photoinitiator TPO was significantly more cytotoxic and genotoxic than both CQ and DMAEMA. CI values showed that components of FIT-based mixtures exhibit an antagonistic cytotoxic effect, while compontents of BisGMA-based mixtures show synergism.

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the in vitro cytotoxicity as well as the proinflammatory cytokine expression of provisional resin materials on primary cultured human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODS: Five commercially available provisional resin materials were chosen (SNAP [SN], Luxatemp [LT], Jet [JE], Revotek LC [RL], and Vipi block [VB]). Eluates that were either polymerizing or already set were added to hDPSCs under serially diluted conditions divided into three different setting times (25% set, 50% set, and 100% set) and incubated for 24 hours with 2× concentrated culture media. Cell cytotoxicity tests were performed by LDH assay and live and dead confocal microscope images. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines in SN and VB was measured using cytokine antibody arrays. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) or ANOVA followed by the Tukey post hoc test at a significance level of p<0.05. RESULTS: Cytotoxicity greater than 30% was observed in the 50% diluted culture in SN, LT, and JE in the already set stage (p<0.05), while it was detected in SN and LT in early or intermediate stage samples. The cytotoxicity of SN, JE, and LT was greater with eluates from the polymerizing phase compared to that from already set samples (p<0.05), as observed by live and dead images. On the other hand, RL and VB did not exhibit cytotoxicity greater than 30%. Proinflammatory cytokines were not detected in 12.5% diluted culture with eluates from VB and early set stage SN. CONCLUSIONS: The eluates from chemical-activated provisional resin materials during polymerization (SN, LT, and JE) were cytotoxic to hDPSCs and may adversely affect pulp tissue.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the cytotoxicity of four dental restorative materials in three-dimensional (3D) L929 cell cultures using a dentin barrier test. METHODS: The cytotoxicities of light-cured glass ionomer cement (Vitrebond), total-etching adhesive (GLUMA Bond5), and two self-etching adhesives (GLUMA Self Etch and Single Bond Universal) were evaluated. The permeabilities of human dentin disks with thicknesses of 300, 500, and 1000µm were standardized using a hydraulic device. Test materials and controls were applied to the occlusal side of human dentin disks. The 3D-cell scaffolds were placed beneath the dentin disks. After a 24-h contact with the dentin barrier test device, cell viabilities were measured by performing MTT assays. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS: The mean (SD) permeabilities of the 300-µm, 500-µm, and 1000-µm dentin disks were 0.626 (0.214), 0.219 (0.0387) and 0.089 (0.028) µlmin-1cm-2cm H2O-1. Vitrebond was severely cytotoxic, reducing the cell viability to 10% (300-µm disk), 17% (500µm), and 18% (1000µm). GLUMA Bond5 reduced the cell viability to 40% (300µm), 83% (500µm), and 86% (1000µm), showing moderate cytotoxicity (300-µm) and non-cytotoxicity (500-µm and 1000-µm). Single Bond Universal and GLUMA Self Etch did not significantly reduce cell viability, regardless of the dentin thicknesses, which characterized them as non-cytotoxic. CONCLUSIONS: Cytotoxicity varied with the materials tested and the thicknesses of the dentin disks. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The tested cytotoxicity of materials applied on 300-, 500-, and 1000-µm dentin disks indicates that the clinical use of the test materials (excepting self-etching adhesives) in deep cavities poses a potential risk of damage to the pulp tissues to an extent, depending on the thickness of the remaining dentin.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the potential cytotoxic effects of four one-step self-etching dental adhesives [Adper Easy One (AEO), iBond (IB), Clearfil S³ Bond (CSB), and G-Bond (GB)] on cultured human periodontal ligament fibroblasts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cured adhesives were immersed in complete DMEM or deionized water and maintained at 37°C for 24 h, followed by sterilization. The deionized water-based extract was used for Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. The DMEM-based extract was diluted into various concentrations for cytotoxicity tests. The viability, integrity, and apoptosis of cultured human periodontal ligament fibroblasts upon treatment with the extracts were determined using the CCK-8 assay, microscopy, and flow cytometry. RESULTS: All of the four adhesives induced cell viability loss, cell morphology alteration, and cell death. GB showed the greatest cytotoxicity by inducing cell apoptosis and necrosis, while IB had the weakest cytotoxic effect on the cultured cells. CONCLUSION: All tested dental adhesives have significant adverse effects on cell viability. Therefore, precautions should be taken to protect the periodontal tissues when dental adhesives are applied in the clinic.

Estrogen is a steroid hormone that is vital in vertebrate development and plays a role in a variety of developmental processes including cartilage and craniofacial formation. The effects of estrogen can be mimicked by other compounds found in the environment known as xenoestrogens. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a known xenoestrogen and is combined with glycidyl methacrylate to make Bisphenol A glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA), a major component in dental resin based composites (RBCs). Bis-GMA based RBCs can release their components into the saliva and bloodstream. Exposure to 1µM and 10µM Bis-GMA in Danio rerio embryos results in increased mortality of approximately 30% and 45% respectively. Changes to gross morphology, specifically craniofacial abnormalities, were seen at concentrations as low as 10nM. While the molecular pathways of Bis-GMA effects have not been studied extensively, more is known about one of the components, BPA. Further research of Bis-GMA could lead to a better understanding of xenoestrogenic activity resulting in improved public and environmental health.

Bisphenol-A-glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA) is a frequently used monomer in dental restorative resins. However, BisGMA could leach from dental restorative resins after polymerization leading to inflammation in the peripheral environment. Wogonin, a natural flavone derivative, has several benefits, such as antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Pretreatment of macrophage RAW264.7 cells with wogonin inhibited cytotoxicity which is induced by BisGMA in a concentration-dependent manner. BisGMA induced apoptotic responses, such as redistribution of phosphatidylserine from the internal to the external membrane and DNA fragmentation, were decreased by wogonin in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, BisGMA-induced genotoxicity, which detected by cytokinesis-blocked micronucleus and single-cell gel electrophoresis assays, were inhibited by wogonin in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, wogonin suppressed BisGMA-induced activation of intrinsic caspase pathways, such as caspases-3 and -8. Parallel trends were observed in inhibition of caspase-3 and -8 activities, apoptosis, and genotoxicity. These results indicate wogonin suppressed the BisGMA-induced apoptosis and genotoxicity mainly via intrinsic caspase pathway in macrophages.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the transdentinal cytotoxicity of components released from different resin-based luting cements to cultured MDPC-23 odontoblast-like cells and human dental pulp cells (HDPCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Artificial pulp chamber (APC)/dentin disc sets were distributed into four groups according to the materials tested (n = 10), as follows: G1, control (no treatment); G2, resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (RelyX Luting 2); G3, self-adhesive resin cement (RelyX U200); and G4, conventional resin cement (RelyX ARC). The materials were applied to the occlusal surfaces (facing up) of the dentin discs adapted to the APCs. The pulpal surfaces of the discs were maintained in contact with culture medium. Then, an aliquot of 400 µL from the extract (culture medium + resin-based components that diffused through dentin) of each luting cement was applied for 24 h to HDPCs or MDPC-23 cells previously seeded in wells of 24-well plates. Cell viability analysis was performed by the MTT assay (1-way ANOVA/Tukey test; α = 5 %). RESULTS: For MDPC-23 cells, RelyX ARC (G4) and RelyX Luting 2 (G2) caused greater reduction in cell viability compared with the negative control group (P < 0.05). Only the HDPCs exposed to RelyX ARC (G4) extract showed a tendency toward viability decrease (9.3 %); however, the values were statistically similar to those of the control group (G1) (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In accordance with the safe limits of ISO 10993-5:1999 (E) recommendations, all resin-based luting cements evaluated in this study can be considered as non-toxic to pulp cells. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Cytotoxicity of resin-based luting cements is material-dependent, and the different protocols for the application of these dental materials to dentin may interfere with their cytotoxicity.

Bisphenol-A-glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA) released from dental resin materials causes various toxic effects on gingival epithelium. Thus the underlying mechanisms of its cytotoxicity should be elucidated for safety use. One potential cause of cell damage is the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) beyond the capacity of a balanced redox regulation. In this study, we found that exposure of human oral keratinocytes (HOKs) to Bis-GMA caused apoptosis and G1/S cell cycle arrest in parallel with an increased ROS level. Moreover, Bis-GMA induced a depletion of mitochondrial membrane potential, an increase in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, an activation of caspase-3 and altered expressions of cell cycle-related proteins (p21, PCNA, cyclinD1). Furthermore, the co-treatment of the ROS scavenger N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) obviously attenuated Bis-GMA-induced toxicity. Here we also evaluated the effects of Bis-GMA on the ROS-related PI3k/Akt pathway. We found that Bis-GMA inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt, whereas the amount of phosphorylated Akt was reverted to the control level in the presence of NAC. Our findings suggested that the toxic effects of Bis-GMA were related to ROS production and the antioxidant NAC effectively reduced Bis-GMA-mediated cytotoxicity.

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Dentin bonding agents (DBAs) are cytotoxic to dental pulp cells. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of three DBAs (Optibond Solo Plus, Op; Clearfil SE Bond, SE; and Xeno III, Xe) after diffusion through 0.2-mm or 0.5-mm dentin slices on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and apoptosis in dental pulp cells. METHODS: The amounts of DBAs diffusing through 0.2-mm or 0.5-mm dentin slices were quantified using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The effects of diffused DBAs on ROS production and viability of dental pulp cells were investigated using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay on Days 1 and 2. Flow cytometric analysis and double staining of treated dental pulp cells with Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (V-FITC) and propidium iodide (PI) were performed on Day 2. RESULTS: Xe showed greatest diffusion through dentin slices after 8-hour period, followed by SE and Op. Dental pulp cells produced a lesser amount of ROS, when treated with DBAs diffusing through a 0.5-mm dentin slice than through a 0.2-mm dentin slice for the same period of time. A small proportion of cells were TUNEL-positive after treatment with any of the three diffused DBAs. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining identified apoptotic cells; cell survival was higher in those cells treated with DBAs diffusing through a 0.5-mm dentin slice than through a 0.2-mm dentin slice. CONCLUSION: The three DBAs after diffusion through 0.2- or 0.5-mm dentin slice still exhibit cytotoxicity to dental pulp cells. However, the 0.5-mm dentin slice is found to be a better barrier than the 0.2-mm dentin slice to protect dental pulp cells from DBA-induced cytotoxicity.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the in vitro cytotoxicity of dental composites containing bioactive glass fillers. METHODS: Dental composites (50:50 Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin: 72.5wt% filler, 67.5%Sr-glass and 5% OX50) containing different concentrations (0, 5, 10 and 15wt%) of two sol-gel bioactive glasses, BAG65 (65mole% SiO2, 31mole% CaO, 4mole% P2O5) and BAG61 (3mole% F added) were evaluated for cytotoxicity using Alamar Blue assay. First, composite extracts were obtained from 7 day incubations of composites in cell culture medium at 37°C. Undifferentiated pulp cells (OD-21) were exposed to dilutions of the original extracts for 3, 5, and 7 days. Then freshly cured composite disks were incubated with OD-21 cells (n=5) for 2 days. Subsequently, fresh composite disks were incubated in culture medium at 37°C for 7 days, and then the extracted disks were incubated with OD-21 cells for 2 days. Finally, fresh composites disks were light cured for 3, 5, and 20s and incubated with OD-21 cells (n=5) for 1, 3, 5, and 7 days. To verify that the three different curing modes produced different levels of degree of conversion (DC), the DC of each composite was determined by FTIR. Groups (n=5) were compared with ANOVA/Tukey's (α≤0.05). RESULTS: Extracts from all composites significantly reduced cell viability until a dilution of 1:8 or lower, where the extract became equal to the control. All freshly-cured composites showed significantly reduced cell viability at two days. However, no reduction in cell viability was observed for any composite that had been previously soaked in media before exposure to the cells. Composites with reduced DC (3s vs. 20s cure), as verified by FTIR, showed significantly reduced cell viability. SIGNIFICANCE: The results show that the composites, independent of composition, had equivalent potency in terms of reducing the viability of the cells in culture. Soaking the composites for 7 days before exposing them to the cells suggested that the "toxic" components had been extracted and the materials were no longer cytotoxic. The results demonstrate that the cytotoxicity of composites with and without BAG must predominantly be attributed to the release of residual monomers, and not to the presence of the BAG.
