OBJECTIVES: To develop remineralizing dental composites incorporating prepolymerized TMPTMA-HEMA particles charged with CaF₂ (THCaF₂).
METHODS: Blends of TMPTMA-HEMA (50/50 wt%), charged with CaF₂ (5, 10, and 15 wt%), were heat-polymerized and crushed to a micrometric scale (THCaF₂). Four dental composites were produced using the same organic matrix (30 wt%) of Bis-GMA/TEGDMA (70/30 wt%). The control composite (C) contained 70 wt% barium borosilicate (BaBSi) fillers, whereas, in CaF5, CaF10, and CaF15, BaBSi fillers were partially replaced by 20 wt% of THCaF₂ particles. The remineralizing potential was evaluated through F⁻ release and the remineralization of caries-like enamel lesions induced by S. mutans biofilm using micro-CT. Physicomechanical properties included degree of conversion (DC%), flexural strength (FS), flexural modulus (FM), water sorption (Wsp), and water solubility (Wsl). Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test (α = 0.05).
RESULTS: All composites containing THCaF₂ released F⁻ ions, whereas only CaF10 and CaF15 induced enamel remineralization. The DC% did not differ among the dental composites (p > 0.05). C showed the highest FS and FM (p < 0.05), whereas the FS and FM of the other composites did not differ from one another (p > 0.05). The lowest Wsp was observed for C (p < 0.05), followed by CaF5, CaF10, and CaF15, which did not differ statistically from one another (p > 0.05). No statistical difference in Wsl was found among the dental composites (p > 0.05).
SIGNIFICANCE: The incorporation of prepolymerized particles charged with CaF₂ (THCaF₂) conferred remineralizing potential to experimental dental composites and represents a promising strategy for developing dental composites capable of preventing enamel demineralization caused by the caries process.
