Effect of Beverages on Viscoelastic Properties of Resin-Based Dental Composites

Abstract: The viscoelastic properties of three commercially available resin-based composites (Filtek™ P60, Filtek™ Supreme, and Filtek™ Z250; 3M ESPE, Bracknell, UK) were measured to determine the effect of beverages on their storage moduli and damping ratios. Rectangular samples of the three hybrid composites were immersed in three beverages at 37 °C for 1, 7, 30, and 60 days. At each time interval, these samples were subjected to three-point bend tests in temperature mode using a Perkin Elmer DMA7 Dynamic Mechanical A… Show more

“…The presence of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) can be another reason of better wear resistance as it enhances the filler-matrix interaction and improves polymerization which reduces the effect of water sorption. [ 20 21 ] TEGDMA has a polyether backbone that increase its flexibility,[ 22 ] and this may allow better molecular interaction and hence better polymerization. This results in increased degree of conversion reducing sorption and making the structure stiffer.…”

“…Clinically, resin composite restorations are exposed to temperature changes, chemical agents that are found in saliva, food, and beverages [ 7 ]. It has been reported previously [ 8 , 9 ] that chemical agents in food and beverages can reduce surface hardness of enamel, dentine, microfilled composite, resin modified glass ionomer, and also affect the viscoelastic properties. The reduction in surface hardness of microfilled composites may lead to some dimensional changes, including creep deformation.…”

“…The increased filler volume and improved bonding between the filler and matrix component may be the cause of the improved wear resistance. Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) can also improve wear resistance because it improves the interaction between the filler and matrix and the polymerization process, which lessens the impact of water sorption 21 . The polyether backbone of TEGDMA makes it more flexible, which may enable greater molecular interaction and, consequently, better polymerization.…”
