Definitions

  • the invention relates to dental composite materials, and more specifically, to dental composite materials containing multifunctional acrylate compounds and having improved viscosity and storage odor.
  • Dental sealants and adhesives are widely used in clinical settings. Desirable properties include safety, efficacy, durability, and favorable cosmetic properties. It is preferred that dental compositions be shelf stable, easy to formulate, have low viscosity to allow for easy application, and not set so rapidly as to make them difficult to apply to a patient. It is also desirable that the compositions lack unpleasant odors, particularly if the compositions are to be used in a patient's mouth.
  • Dental compositions frequently contain monomers that are polymerized by the dentist or technician (e.g. by light, self-cure, or dual-cure).
  • many dental compositions form a problematic "oxygen inhibited layer” (OIL) or "uncured layer” on their surface.
  • OIL oxygen inhibited layer
  • This layer's polymerization is inhibited due to the presence of molecular oxygen radicals in ambient air.
  • incomplete polymerization occurs.
  • Such a layer often render the surface sticky or tacky, making the dental composition more difficult to mold or shape.
  • Such incomplete polymerization also tends to lead to lower hardness of the surface and/or no curing if a thin surface is present.
  • Extoral is a visible-light cured dental resin formulation sold by AFR Imaging Corp. (Portland, OR). Extoral can be used for surface treatment or as a denture resin. Extoral cures rapidly and produces a glossy, hard surface upon irradiation with normal dental light. Extoral is significant in that it does not have an "oxygen inhibited layer," even when cured with low intensity light.
  • One difficulty with using Extoral is its volatility, leading to a very strong odor. The smell is objectionable to both patients and dentists/technicians, making it difficult to use in a laboratory, and nearly impossible to use in a clinical setting. Another difficulty is the very brittle surface created by Extoral, which may limit its use in certain dental applications such as surfaces subject to compressive forces.
  • Methyl methacrylate is a volatile compound used in several dental products. In addition to its unpleasant smell, exposure to methyl methacrylate has been linked to various health concerns. Numbness, paraesthesia, reduced pulmonary function, and reduced respiratory function have been observed in dental technicians who have been chronically exposed to methyl methacrylate (Sadoh, D. R. et al., British DentalJ 186(8): 380-381, 1999; Nishiwaki, Y. et al., J Occup. Health 43: 375-378, 2001). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency describes methyl methacrylate as an irritant of the nose and throat, and mentions that exposure for short periods of time can cause headache and fatigue (EPA 749-F-95-014 Fact Sheet, November 1994).
  • An embodiment of the invention is directed towards dental acrylic compositions containing a multiacrylate compound and an initiator. Curing of the compositions results in surfaces lacking an oxygen inhibition layer (“OIL").
  • the multiacrylate compound contains at least three acrylate units per molecule.
  • ethanol or other alcohols are used as a solvent and the presence of a storage odor is minimized by minimizing the potential catalysts for trans- esterification. This may be done by minimizing water in the composition, by neutralizing acids, by removing impurities from the acrylate monomer, and by a combination of any or all of these methods of minimizing the potential catalysts.
  • the formulations can further comprise other acrylate compounds, solvents, fillers, nanofillers, diluents, or other materials useful in dental formulations.
  • the formulations are useful in applications such as dental coatings, dental sealants, and fingernail/toenail repair.
  • the formulations When used as a dental coating or sealant, the formulations may be used on restoratives outside of the mouth or may be used in the mouth on restoratives or natural tooth material, or a combination of restoratives and natural tooth material.
  • An embodiment of the invention is directed toward dental acrylic material compositions that cure to form surfaces that lack an oxygen inhibition layer ("OIL").
  • the compositions preferably do not contain methyl methacrylate.
  • the compositions preferably cure rapidly to form stable, hard, glossy surfaces.
  • the compositions preferably lack an unpleasant odor and remain relatively odor-free after significant storage time, illustratively for 3 months to 2 years.
  • One embodiment of the invention is a dental composition
  • a dental composition comprising a multiacrylate compound, an initiator and a solvent.
  • the multiacrylate compound is a chemical compound comprising at least three acrylate functionalities per molecule.
  • the composition preferably does not contain methyl methacrylate.
  • the composition upon curing, preferably does not form an oxygen inhibition layer.
  • initiators are phosphine oxide photoinitiators and camphorquinone.
  • examples of such initiators include 2,4,6- trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide (TPO), TPO-L, Irgacure 819, Darocure 4265, and camphorquinone. It is expected that other initiators capable of photocleavage with or without the need for amine co-initiators will have utility according to the present invention.
  • the initiator can generally be present at any concentration in the composition.
  • the initiator is preferably present at a concentration that will not noticeably discolor the cured composition.
  • Example concentration ranges of the initiator include about 1 weight percent of the composition or less, at least about 1 weight percent of the composition, at least about 2 weight percent of the composition, at least about 3 weight percent of the composition, at least about 4 weight percent of the composition, at least about 5 weight percent of the composition, at least about 6 weight percent of the composition, or at least about 7 weight percent of the composition up to saturation levels of initiator in the composition.
  • Example concentrations of the initiator include about 3 weight percent of the composition, about 6 weight percent of the composition, and about 7 weight percent of the composition up to saturation levels of initiator in the composition. It is also expected that lower concentrations can be provided in the presence of a volatile dental solvent such that, upon evaporation, the desired higher effective initiator concentration is present in the composition.
  • the solvent may be any solvent known in the art, including water, butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, chloroform, acetone, ethanol, isopropanol, other lower alcohols, and mixtures thereof.
  • Ethanol is particularly well suited as a solvent for dental compositions. Ethanol provides a low viscosity, allowing easy application of the composition, and ethanol is not as volatile as acetone, providing sufficient time for application of the product. Thus, the use of ethanol as a solvent provides a good balance between volatility and viscosity concerns. Further, ethanol has a low toxicity as compared other commonly used solvents.

  • Example concentration ranges include at least about 20 weight percent of the composition and at least about 30 weight percent of the composition, illustratively 40 to 60 weight percent of the composition. It has been found that the viscosity of multiacrylate compositions can be reduced to below 100 centipoise when the composition comprises 40 to 60 weight percent of ethanol.
  • the solvent may be provided free of water, illustratively in absolute form.
  • the multiacrylate compound can generally be any multiacrylate compound having at least three acrylate functionalities per molecule in relatively close spatial proximity to one another.

  • Resins were prepared and coated on composite disks. After evaporation of the acetone for greater than 60 seconds, the coatings were irradiated for 30 seconds at 300 mW/cm 2 white light. The pencil hardness was measured, as shown in Table 10. All surfaces were found to be tack and fingernail scratch free.
  • NOIL DP20-5 NOEL compositions and L/C Bonding resins were evaluated for their shear strength.

  • the NOIL sample was DP20-5 containing 20% glass ionomer for fluoride release and 0.75% Lumilux blue for phosphorescence.
  • Shade disks of DP-20-5 and LC Sealant were prepared as follows. A round stainless steel mold held between polyethylene sheets and glass slabs were used to prepare discs of a fixed size. The discs were cured using two light guns set at 500 ⁇ 50 mW/cm 2 . A single light gun was positioned over the center of the disc, and irradiated the disc for 20 seconds. Next, the two light guns were positioned at opposing ends of the circle (across the diameter), and irradiated the disc for 10 seconds.
  • the two light guns were moved around the circle to irradiate the disc for a total of four times of 10 seconds (position of the two light guns around the circular discs: 0 and 180 degrees, then 90 and 270 degrees, then 135 and 315 degrees, and finally 45 and 225 degrees), in addition to the 20 second irradiation in the center).
  • the top glass plate was removed, and the curing process repeated.
  • the specimen was heated at 37 ⁇ 3° C for 15 ⁇ 1 minutes.
  • a diamond burr was used to drill a hole near the edge of the disks.
  • the disk was sonicated in acetone to remove any air inhibited layer that may be present.
  • the diameter and height of the disk was measured with a caliper, and the mass of the disk was determined using an analytical balance.
  • a wire was threaded through the hole and twisted/turned such that the disk can be propped upright within a vial.
  • An aqueous solution of sodium chloride (0.2M, 10 ml) was added to each vial, the vials were capped, and placed at 37° C for 1 hour. Fluoride release was determined using a fluoride sensitive electrode immersed in a 50/50 TISAB/sample mixture. Three tests of each sample were performed. The results are shown in Table 12.
  • NOIL sealants such as DP-20-5 with fluoride glass can release significantly more fluoride than the conventional L/C sealant. NOIL sealants can therefore be used in applications where fluoride release is desirable or required.
