Abstract
Aim: To enhance mineral trioxide aggregate high plasticity (MTA HP), a commonly used dental calcium silicate cement, by incorporating selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The objectives included investigating the impact of SeNPs on the setting time and chemical properties of MTA HP.
Materials and methods: We performed a comprehensive study to formulate and profile SeNPs integrated into MTA HP. Diverse concentrations of SeNPs were introduced into MTA HP, and the commencement and culmination of the setting process were gauged employing a Gillmore needle cabinet. The chemical composition was validated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance and X-ray diffraction analysis.
Results: The incorporation of SeNPs led to remarkable improvements. Notably, SeNPs positively affected the setting time of MTA HP, with faster setting times corresponding to higher SeNPs concentrations. Chemical analyses confirmed the successful integration of SeNPs with MTA HP. These enhancements make the material may be suitable for dental applications, especially due to its accelerated setting time.
Conclusions: MTA HP incorporated with SeNPs represents a significant advancement in dental materials. Its faster setting time, combined with the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of selenium, provides dental professionals with an efficient and time-saving option for complex treatments. This novel nanomaterial holds promise for improving dental procedures and patient outcomes.
目的:通过加入具有抗氧化和抗炎特性的硒纳米粒子(SeNPs),提高常用牙科硅酸钙水泥--三氧化二铝矿物骨料高塑性(MTA HP)的性能。目的包括研究 SeNPs 对 MTA HP 固化时间和化学特性的影响:我们进行了一项综合研究,以配制和分析融入 MTA HP 的 SeNPs。在 MTA HP 中引入了不同浓度的 SeNPs,并使用 Gillmore 针柜测量了凝固过程的开始和结束时间。使用傅立叶变换红外光谱衰减全反射和 X 射线衍射分析验证了化学成分:结果:SeNPs 的加入带来了显著的改善。值得注意的是,SeNPs 对 MTA HP 的凝固时间有积极影响,SeNPs 浓度越高,凝固时间越快。化学分析证实了 SeNPs 与 MTA HP 的成功结合。这些改进使该材料可能适合牙科应用,特别是由于其凝固时间更快:添加了 SeNPs 的 MTA HP 是牙科材料的一大进步。它的凝固时间更快,再加上硒的抗氧化和抗炎特性,为牙科专业人员提供了一种高效、省时的复杂治疗选择。这种新型纳米材料有望改善牙科治疗过程和患者的治疗效果。
期刊介绍:
It is a journal aimed for research, scientific facts and details covering all specialties of dentistry with a good determination for exploring and sharing the knowledge in the medical and dental fraternity. The scope is therefore huge covering almost all streams of dentistry - starting from original studies, systematic reviews, narrative reviews, very unique case reports. Journal scope is not limited to these subjects and is more wider covering all specialities of dentistry follows: -Preventive and Community dentistry (Dental public health)- Endodontics- Oral and maxillofacial pathology- Oral and maxillofacial radiology- Oral and maxillofacial surgery (also called oral surgery)- Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics- Periodontology (also called periodontics)- Pediatric dentistry (also called pedodontics)- Prosthodontics (also called prosthetic dentistry)- Oral medicine- Special needs dentistry (also called special care dentistry)- Oral Biology- Forensic odontology- Geriatric dentistry or Geriodontics- Preventive and Social Medicine (Public health)- Our journal appreciates research articles pertaining with advancement of dentistry, preventive and community dentistry including oral epidemiology, oral health services research, oral health education and promotion, behavioral sciences related to dentistry, dental jurisprudence, ethics and oral health, economics, and quality assessment, recent advances in preventive dentistry and community dentistry.
