Experimental sealers containing metal methacrylates: Physical and biological properties
Journal of Endodontics Sep 12, 2017
de Almeida Rossato TC, et al. Â In the present study, the physical properties, the antimicrobial effect, and the biocompatibility of dual polymerization experimental sealers after the incorporation of dibutyltin (ET) or calcium (EC) methacrylate at concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, 2%, and 5% were evaluated. Results revealed that calcium and dibutyltin methacrylate incorporation in experimental sealers promoted the antimicrobial effect. However, the incorporation of calcium methacrylate at 0.5%, 1%, and 2% showed to be a good treatment option to provide antimicrobial activity related to moderate cytotoxicity and adequate physical properties.
