Prevention of in vitro Secondary Caries with an Experimental Fluoride-exchanging Restorative Resin

Abstract: We investigated the development of artificial caries lesions adjacent to experimental composite resins which release fluoride by ion exchange. Overall, compared with both a commercial, non-fluoride composite and a restorative silicate cement, the cavity walls and tooth surfaces immediately adjacent to the experimental resins developed fewer and/or smaller lesions. When lesions did develop, they did not penetrate as far along the cavity walls adjacent to the experimental materials. In general, the degree of pro… Show more

“…Several studies have shown that fluoride levels increase in enamel and dentine adjacent to glass-ionomer [14,15] and this might be expected to assist caries inhibition. This fluoride was originally in the glass from which the glassionomer was formed, and as such, associated with aluminium and sodium ions [15].…”

“…On the other hand, various resin-bound fluoride compounds have been developed as organic components so that these do not show any noticeable deterioration by adopting some unique fluoride-releasing mechanisms [Mirth et al, 1983;Tanaka et al, 1987;Gron et al, 1989]. Some use ion-exchange reactions between fluorine ion (F -) and hydroxy ion (OH -) [Tanaka et al, 1987] or chloride ion (Cl -) [Zimmerman et al, 1984] after diffusion of water.…”

“…Fluoride is well documented as an anti cariogenic agent. Fluoride-releasing restorative materials may be able to reduce the recurrent caries at the restoration margins 12,13,14,15,16 . Recurrent caries is the most frequent cause foe the failure of dental restorations 7,17 .…”
