The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the addn. of glass fillers with different sizes and degrees of silanization percentages to remineralizing composite materials based on amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP).Four different materials were tested in this study. Three ACP based materials: 0-ACP (40 wt% ACP, 60 wt% resin), Ba-ACP (40 wt% ACP, 50 wt% resin, 10 wt% barium-glass) and ...

The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the addn. of glass fillers with different sizes and degrees of silanization percentages to remineralizing composite materials based on amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP).Four different materials were tested in this study. Three ACP based materials: 0-ACP (40 wt% ACP, 60 wt% resin), Ba-ACP (40 wt% ACP, 50 wt% resin, 10 wt% barium-glass) and Sr-ACP (40 wt% ACP, 50 wt% resin, 10 wt% strontium-glass) were compared to the control material, resin modified glass ionomer (Fuji II LC capsule, GC, Japan). The fillers and composites were characterized using SEM. Flexural strength and modulus were detd. using a three-point bending test. Calcium and phosphate ion release from ACP based composites was measured using inductively coupled plasma at. emission spectroscopy.The addn. of barium-glass fillers (35.4 (29.1-42.1) MPa) (median (25-75%)) had improved the flexural strength in comparison to the 0-ACP (24.8 (20.8-36.9) MPa) and glass ionomer control (33.1 (29.7-36.2) MPa). The admixt. of strontium-glass (20.3 (19.5-22.2) MPa) did not have any effect on flexural strength, but significantly improved its flexural modulus (6.4 (4.8-6.9) GPa) in comparison to 0-ACP (3.9 (3.4-4.1) GPa) and Ba-ACP (4.6 (4.2-6.9) GPa). Ion release kinetics was not affected by the addn. of inert fillers to the ACP composites.Incorporation of barium-glass fillers to the compn. of ACP composites contributed to the improvement of flexural strength and modulus, with no adverse influence on ion release profiles.
