Antibacterial Drug-Release Polydimethylsiloxane Coating for 3D-Printing Dental Polymer: Surface Alterations and Antimicrobial Effects

Abstract: Polymers are the most commonly used material for three-dimensional (3D) printing in dentistry; however, the high porosity and water absorptiveness of the material adversely influence biofilm formation on the surface of the 3D-printed dental prostheses. This study evaluated the effects of a newly developed chlorhexidine (CHX)-loaded polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based coating material on the surface microstructure, surface wettability and antibacterial activity of 3D-printing dental polymer. First, mesoporous sil… Show more

“…The product reduced friction by two orders of magnitude in an aqueous environment, which had a friction coefficient (µ) as low as 0.003 [ 65 ]. A chlorhexidine (CHX)-loaded PDMS-based coating was applied on the surface of a 3D-printed dental polymer to induce surface wettability, microstructure, and antibacterial activity [ 66 ]. CHX was encapsulated in silica nanoparticles and added to PDMS to produce an antibacterial coating material.…”

“…The particular use of polymeric coatings relies on their intrinsic features, including bioavailability and application-related tunable properties, versatile surface chemistry and solubility/dissolution, biodegradability and biocompatibility and genuine biological and therapeutic activity [11,12]. Moreover, by properly tuning their composition and microstructure, such coatings possess the ability to act as protective and bioactive matrices for therapeutic substances and to concurrently facilitate controlled and targeted local effects and diminish or eliminate collateral or side effects [13][14][15][16].…”

“…In these treatments, 3D-printed polymers, such as polylactic acid, are fabricated and implanted in an oral cavity since they are resistant against impact and are non-toxic [ 104 ]. 3D-printed polymers also have little surface roughness, which is beneficial since surface roughness promotes biofilm formation that attracts harmful bacteria to the implant [ 105 ]. Figure 5 B demonstrates a polymer dental cast using polyjet printing from a study that compared 3D-printed dental casts to those made of dental stone; the 3D-printed cases were investigated with multiple printing processes and materials [ 96 ].…”
