Cytotoxicity and degree of conversion of orthodontic adhesives.
    The Angle orthodontist, 2009, Volume: 79, Issue:6

    To test the hypothesis that there is no difference in the cytotoxicity related to the modes of polymerization of five commercially available orthodontic bonding resins, with and without an oxygen-inhibited layer (OIL), and to evaluate the degree of conversion (DC) of these resins and correlate this to cytotoxicity.. Five commercially available orthodontic bonding resins were tested for cytotoxicity and DC. Thirty-six disks of standardized dimensions, for each resin, were used for cytotoxicity assessment. Half of them were washed with 99% acetone to remove the OIL (washed resins), and the remaining disks were left intact (intact resins). Glass disks were used as a control. Vero cells were exposed to intact and washed resins on day 1. Cell viability was determined by tetrazolium bromide reduction assay 1, 3, and 6 days after exposure. The DC of the adhesive specimens of each resin, prepared with a procedure identical to the clinical bonding process, was assessed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.. Single-cured systems were comparatively less cytotoxic than dual-cured systems. With removal of the OIL, increased cell viability was noted only with two resins on all three days. Resins tested showed differences in DC. A positive correlation was demonstrated by two resins.. The hypothesis is rejected. Single-cured systems are superior to dual-cured systems in exhibiting comparatively less toxicity and higher DC. A significant positive correlation was not established between cytotoxicity and DC.
