Improved bond performance of a dental adhesive system using nano-technology.
Since adhesive technology was introduced into dental field, metal-based restoration has been gradually replaced by metal-free restoration. Using the adhesive technology, minimum invasive technique has been possible in daily clinical practice as well as esthetic tooth-colored restorations have become very popular all over the world.One of the current issues of the dental adhesive is durability of bond between tooth structure and adhesive resin. Several approaches to overcome the issues have been carried out. Self-etching approach is believed to create durable bond because demineralization of superficial tooth surface is very shallow. Other approach is to utilize the inhibitor of enzymes which are suggested to catalyze the decomposition of resin composites and are always secreted within the oral environment.In the present study, Colloidal Platinum Nanoparticles (CPN) was applied before the application of 4-META/MMA-TBB resin cement as the third possibility to prolong the durability of bond. This implies that the use of the CPN solution would create higher conversion at the interface compared with conventional bonding procedures.
