Abstract
The aim of this laboratory study was to evaluate the monomer leaching and degree of conversion (DC) from experimental bioactive resin composites (RBCs) and to do comparison with commercial bulkfill and packable resin composites. Experimental dimethacrylatebased resin composites were reinforced with silanated nano-hydroxyapatite (30 and 45 wt%). The ion leaching and DC of these resin composites were compared and contrasted with SDR™ and Filtek P60™ by using the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. A significant difference was found in elution of monomer between the resin composites. SDR™ showed significantly high monomer elution and structural changes compared to other resin composites. The DC of bioactive RBCs showed the highest conversion rate after polymerization. Resin composite with nano-hydroxyapatite with the presence of a bioactive component might provide biomimetic approach for the material. Moreover, a low concentration of nanohydroxyapatite nano-fillers have shown better properties than micro-fillers based resin composites.
