| Abstract | |
The antibacterial monomer 12-methacryloyloxydodecylpyridinium bromide (MDPB) was incorporated with fluoride component in Clearfil Protect Bond adhesive system to help in secondary caries prevention. Thus, the present study conducted three in vitro experiments with the aim to evaluate the fluoride and MDPB effects in cavity disinfection, bonding durability on caries-affected dentin (CAD) and secondary caries prevention. In Chapter 1, the MDPB antibacterial effect was evaluate against S. mutans biofilm on dentin surface after four application times of MDPB primer (20s, 90s, 300s e 590s). The cellular viability was evaluated by confocal laser scanning microcopy (CLSM) and viable count test. MDPB had bactericidal effect against S. mutans biofilm on dentin after 300s of primer application. In Chapter 2, the artificial CAD bonding degradation was evaluated using microtensile bonding strength test (µTB) after CPB and Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBM) adhesive systems application and storage in S. mutans culture for three days and deionized water for three months. The fluoride and MDPB in CPB adhesive system did not prevent the CAD bonding degradation because there was no statistical difference between µTB values of CPB and SBM in both degradation methods. Therefore, S. mutans culture was an effective method to produce degradation in vitro in a short period of time as 3 months of water storage. In Chapter 3, the secondary caries inhibition by CPB and SBM was evaluated after chemical (acidic gel) and biological (S. mutans culture) challenges during 5 days. The inhibition zone formation (IZ) by adhesive systems used was evaluated by CLSM. The calcium and phosphorus distribution was evaluate by X-Ray fluorescence analysis (µ-EDX) to investigate the mineral loss on dentin along dentin/restoration interface. CPB adhesive system produced the thickest IZ and lowest mineral loss when it was submitted to chemical challenge; however the same adhesive system produced the lowest value of IZ thickness and the highest mineral loss in the biological challenge. SBM adhesive system showed intermediate mineral loss and IZ thickness values in both cariogenic challenges. Thus, the artificial caries method and the hybrid layer quality of CPB and SBM affected the secondary caries inhibition by adhesive systems. Based on the findings of this study, and within the limitation of this investigation, could be concluded that the MDPB monomer in CPB adhesive system had bactericidal effect after 300 s of its application. Furthermore, this monomer did not prevent the bonding degradation after S. mutans culture and water storage, as well as the dentin demineralization at tooth/restoration interface after chemical and biological cariogenic challenges.
