Abstract:Introduction: The covering of orthodontic miniscrews (MS) with temporary resins can relieve the patient's discomfort and prevent soft tissue injuries. The direct contact with these tissues for prolonged periods justifies the need of biocompatibility tests. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity of light-polymerized temporary fillings used for MS covering.
