Abstract: This study analyzes international historical trends in the use of different types of materials in dental practice. The author describes the chemical properties of their ingredients and the potential and observed adverse effects in patients and dental technicians resulting from clinical or occupational exposure to various metals like beryllium, used to produce metal alloys. The growing use of various products (resin cements, ionomer cements, aesthetic restorative materials, resins, endodontal cements, and other… Show more

“…BPA is considered a xenoestrogen producing biological outcomes such as the natural hormone, [44,45,46] being considered an endocrine disruptor [47]. Human exposure to endocrine disruptors such as BPA might even begin in fetal development since these compounds traverse the placenta.…”

“…They may cause interferences in organogenesis, making it more harmful than in adulthood [48]. Since estrogens influence the development and regulation of the female genital tract, perinatal exposure to estrogenic compounds results in morphological and functional alterations of the female genital tract and mammary glands that may predispose the tissue to earlier/higher onset of disease, altered fertility and fecundity, altered lactation, breast cancer, advanced puberty and altered estrous cycles [44,48]. The male genital tract might also be affected and become more predisposed to prostate and testicular cancer as well as a drop in sperm count [44,48].…”

“…Unpolymerized monomers can reach the systemic circulation through the digestive and respiratory system. These monomers in the systemic circulation may occur cytotoxic, mutagenic, genotoxic and estrogenic effects [4][5][6] . Also, the use of RBCs in the direct coating of the pulp can inhibit the formation of dentin bridges.…”

“…Moreover, these monomers can access the vascular system by penetrating the dentin, causing soft tissue irritation and allergic reactions, as well as cytotoxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, or estrogenic effects [7][8][9] . Bisphenol A (BPA) is present as a trace impurity in the starting materials for resins, and it is also a controversial endocrine disruptor 10,11) . In this study, BPA was investigated in conjunction with dimethacrylate monomers (TEGDMA, UDMA, Bis-GMA).…”
