Effect of incorporation of 2-tert-butylaminoethyl methacrylate on flexural strength of a denture base acrylic resin

Abstract: Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resins have commonly been used as a denture base material. However, denture bases may act as a reservoir for microorganisms and contribute to oral diseases in denture wearers. It is hypothesized that the 2-tertbutylaminoethyl methacrylate (TBAEMA) incorporated to acrylic resins should have antimicrobial activity related to the presence of amino groups on acrylic resin surface.ObjectivesThe objectives of this study were to evaluate the presence of amino groups on acrylic resin sur… Show more

“…By incorporating methacrylate 2-tert-butylaminoethyl (TBAEMA) in acrylic resin, Paleari, et al 21 (2012) noted that the addition of 1% is sufficient to cause significant changes in fexural strength of the resin and justifes this change by incomplete polymerization of the same and permanence of residual monomer.…”

“…11 The polymer provides the advantage of low toxicity and is documented as causing no bacterial resistance. 8,11,12 In a previous report, PTBAEMA was successfully incorporated into polyethylene or stainless steel surfaces. 11,13 In addition, the polymer has also exhibited highly antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli and S. aureus 11,13 and S. mutans in denture base resin.…”

“…2,3 Several studies have investigated the addition of antimicrobial agents into denture material to reduce or to avoid microorganism development on the surface of the prostheses material. [4][5][6][7][8] Others have added antimicrobial agents to tissue conditioners. 9,10 Poly (2 tert-butylaminoethyl) methacrylate (PTBAEMA) is a polycationic polymer that acts as a substi tute for low molecular weight biocides.…”

“…Several materials have been incorporated in acrylic resins as antimicrobial agents to reduce the microbial adhesion. 12,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26] Laser phototherapy and low-level laser therapy are also proven to be effective treatment options to reduce denture stomatitis. 27,28 Methacrylic acid (MAA) is a colorless, viscous carboxylic acid liquid soluble in most organic solvents.…”
