Influence of radiopaque fillers on physicochemical properties of a model epoxy resin-based root canal sealer

Abstract: ObjectiveTo verify the influence of radiopaque fillers on an epoxy resin-based sealer. Material and MethodsExperimental sealers were formulated by adding 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% and 120% of calcium tungstate, ytterbium trifluoride or barium sulphate by weight to an epoxy-resin-base. Setting time, flow, film thickness, radiopacity, sorption, solubility, pH and push-out bond strength were evaluated. ResultsThe setting time ranged from 373 to 612.66 min, the flow varied from 13.81±0.49 to 22.49±0.37 mm, and the … Show more

“…Although Transbond XT has a high filler concentration (77 wt%), it showed SBS values of 6.9 MPa adequate for clinical use. Previous studies showed that the filler concentration may clinically influence the viscosity of bonding materials 21 , but the higher viscosity can not limit the free flow of the resin into the enamel pores and the formation of resin tags 22 . Other studies showed that flowable resins can flow easily into an etched enamel structure adequately and onto a bracket base without need of an intermediate bonding resin, thus an enhance in the level of mechanical properties are expected 13 .…”

“…To eliminate the use of glasses, one solution is to use heavy-atom compound as homogeneous filler in matrix 15) . Ytterbium trifluoride (YbF3) 11) , barium sulphate (BaSO4), calcium tungstate (CaWO4) 16) and niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) 8,10) have been used. However, the incorporation of the inorganic filler needs to be in low concentrations in order to not compromise the wetting of the dental substrate due to high viscosity of the resin while it is possible to increase the radiopacity and mechanical properties of the material 14) .…”
