ABSTRACT

Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a eficácia da adição de nanopartículas de óxido de zircônio (ZrO2), óxido de titânio (TiO2) e óxido de sílica (SiO2) a um material de revestimento macio curado a frio na adesão de Candida albicans (CA). Material e Método: Cinquenta e quatro pacientes foram selecionados e divididos em três grupos de acordo com a modificação do revestimento com nanopartículas de ZrO2, TiO2 e SiO2 (18 cada). Cada paciente recebeu prótese total maxilar com três cavidades, as cavidades foram revestidas com forro macio curado a frio modificado com diferentes concentrações (0%, 3% e 7%) de nanopartículas de óxido metálico. Nos dias 14 e 28, as trocas foram retiradas do local de realinhamento e imediatamente cultivadas para avaliação fúngica. O número de colônias foi contado, os dados coletados e explorados para normalidade usando o teste de Shapiro-Wilk e a transformação logarítmica da contagem de CA foi realizada. ANOVA para medidas repetidas e de uma via (one-way) foram usados, seguidos por teste de Tukey (HSD). O teste t independente foi usado para comparar as contagens de CA em diferentes períodos. Resultados: A adesão do CA foi significativamente diminuída pela adição de nanopartículas de ZrO2, TiO2 e SiO2 em comparação com o grupo controle, também a cobertura antifúngica aumentou com o aumento da concentração de nanopartículas (p <0,005). A maior contagem de CA foi identificada no grupo SiO2 seguido por ZrO2, enquanto TiO2apresentou a menor contagem de CA (p <0,001). Conclusão: Adição de diferentes nanopartículas; ZrO2, TiO2 e SiO2para revestimento macio curado a frio é um método eficaz para reduzir a adesão de CA (AU)


Objective: The aim of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy of addition of zirconium oxide (ZrO2), titanium oxide (TiO2), and silica oxide (SiO2) nanoparticles to cold-cured soft liner on adhesion of Candida albicans (CA). Material and Methods: Fifty-four patients had been selected and divided into three groups according to the modification of soft liner with ZrO2, TiO2, and SiO2 nanoparticles (18 each of). Each patient received maxillary complete denture having three cavities, the cavities were lined using cold cured soft liner modified with different concentration (0%, 3%, and 7%) of metal oxide nanoparticles. On days 14 and 28, swaps were taken out from relining site and immediately cultured for fungal evaluation. The number of colonies were counted, data collected and explored for normality using Shapiro-Wilk test, logarithmic transformation of CA count was performed. Repeated and one-way ANOVA were used followed by Tukey HSD. Independent-t test used to compare between CA counts at different periods. Results: The CA adhesion was significantly decreased by the addition of ZrO2, TiO2 and SiO2 nanoparticles in comparison with control group, also the antifungal coverage increased with nanoparticles concentration increased (P<0.005). The highest CA count was identified in group SiO2 followed by ZrO2, while TiO2 showed the lowest CA count (P <0.001). Conclusion: Addition of different nanoparticles; ZrO2, TiO2 and SiO2 to cold-cured soft liner is an effective method for reducing CA adhesion. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objective: The present study was oriented to estimate the effect of different surface treatments on the microleakage between the soft liner and acrylic with and without the use of autoclave as disinfection method. Material and Methods: Sixty samples were split into two groups: the autoclaved groups and non-autoclaved groups. Each one subdivided into three groups: first one without any treatments as a control group; in the second group surface of the samples were treated with CO2 laser (10.6 nm wavelength for 15 seconds), and in the third group the surface was treated with sandblasting (250 µm Al2O3). All the samples exposed to thermocycling, then the microleakage test was evaluated by gauging dye penetration depth between the soft liner and acrylic disc using a digital microscope. Data analyzed statistically by One-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc tests. In addition, t-test was used for comparison between two groups (P-value ≤ 0.05). Results: The maximum mean values for the microleakage were observed in the untreated group (control) followed by the group treated by CO2 laser and the lowest mean value of microleakage was related to the third group for both non-autoclaved and autoclaved groups with significant differences among them. In addition, depending on the use of autoclave, there was non-significant in all studied groups. Conclusions: There was a decrease in the microleakage when the surface treated with CO2laser and sandblast. The use of autoclave did not badly change the microleakage between the soft liner and denture base. (AU)


Objetivo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo estimar o efeito de diferentes tratamentos de superfície na microinfiltração entre o soft liner e o acrílico usando ou não a autoclve como método de desinfecção. Material e Métodos: Sessenta amostras foram divididas em dois grupos: grupo com uso da autoclave e grupo sem uso da autoclave. Cada um subdivide em três grupos: o primeiro sem nenhum tratamento como grupo controle; no segundo grupo, a superfície das amostras foi tratada com laser de CO2 (comprimento de onda de 10,6 nm por 15 segundos) e, no terceiro grupo, a superfície foi tratada com jateamento (250 µm Al2O3). Todas as amostras foram expostas à termociclagem, em seguida o teste de microinfiltração foi realizado medindo-se a profundidade de penetração do corante entre o soft liner e o disco de acrílico em microscópio digital. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente por One-way ANOVA e testes post-hoc de Tukey. Além disso, o teste t foi usado para comparação entre dois grupos (P-valor ≤ 0,05). Resultados: Os valores médios máximos de microinfiltração foram observados no grupo não tratado (controle) seguido pelo grupo tratado com laser de CO2 e o valor médio mínimo de microinfiltração foi relacionado ao terceiro grupo para ambos os grupos não autoclavado e autoclavado com diferenças significativas entre eles. Além disso, dependendo do uso de autoclave, não houve significância em todos os grupos estudados. Conclusão: Houve diminuição da microinfiltração quando a superfície foi tratada com laser de CO2e jateamento. O uso de autoclave não alterou a microinfiltração entre o soft liner e a base da prótese (AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the surface morphology and in vitro leachability of temporary soft linings modified by the incorporation of antifungals in minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for Candida albicans biofilm. Methodology:Specimens of soft lining materials Softone and Trusoft were made without (control) or with the addition of nystatin (Ny), miconazole (Mc), ketoconazole (Ke), chlorhexidine diacetate (Chx), or itraconazole (It) at their MIC for C. albicans biofilm. The surface analyses were performed using Confocal laser scanning microscopy after 24 h, 7 days, or 14 days of immersion in distilled water at 37ºC. In vitro leachability of Chx or Ny from the modified materials was also measured using Ultraviolet visible spectroscopy for up to 14 days of immersion in distilled water at 37ºC. Data (µg/mL) were submitted to ANOVA 1-factor/Bonferroni (α=0.05). Results: Softone had a more irregular surface than Trusoft. Morphological changes were noted in both materials with increasing immersion time, particularly, in those containing drugs. Groups containing Chx and It presented extremely porous and irregular surfaces. Both materials had biexponential release kinetics. Softone leached a higher concentration of the antifungals than Trusoft (p=0.004), and chlorhexidine was released at a higher concentration than nystatin (p<0.001). Conclusions: The surface of the soft lining materials changed more significantly with the addition of Chx or It. Softone released a higher concentration of drugs than Trusoft did, guiding the future treatment of denture stomatitis.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The disadvantage of liners materials is the difficulty of biofilm control. It was compared an experimental dentifrice contained Ricinus communis, with commercials dentifrices as antibiofilm activity against microorganisms on denture liner. Six hundred specimens were distributed in 5 groups (n=18/ microorganism): water; experimental dentifrice; specific dentifrice for denture and two conventional dentifrices against C. albicans; C. glabrata; S. mutans; S. aureus; E. coli. Each group had a negative (n=5; without contamination) and positive control (n=15/ microorganism; without cleaning). The antibiofilm activity was evaluated by the method of biofilm formation in triplicate. The specimens were contaminated in a standard way and incubated. After that, manual brushing was performed (60 s), washed with PBS, immersed in liquid culture medium for resuspension and sowing in solid medium. The results (mean of triplicates) were expressed in CFU/mL. The data was submitted to Shapiro-Wilk, ANOVA and Tukey test (p<0.05). The specific dentifrice (1.27±1.20) was the most effective against S. mutans, followed by conventional (Trihydral, 3.13±0.88; Colgate, 2.16±2.02) and experimental (3.81±1.37) dentifrices, which were similar to each other (p=0.008). All of them were different from water (4.79±1.42). The specific (0.21±0.21) and experimental (0.36±0.25) dentifrices were similar against S. aureus, with a higher mean of CFU when compared to conventional (Colgate, 0.06±0.13), which was more efficient (p=0.000). For C. albicans, C. glabrata and E. coli, all dentifrices were similar to water (p=0.186). It was concluded, that the experimental dentifrice was effective against S. aureus and had not efficacy against Candida spp.; S. mutans; E. coli, as occurred with the commercials dentifrices.


Resumo A desvantagem dos materiais resilientes é a dificuldade de controle do biofilme. Este estudo comparou um dentífrico experimental contendo Ricinus communis, com dentifrícios comerciais quanto atividade contra biofilme formado em reembasador de próteses totais. Seiscentos espécimes foram distribuídos em 5 grupos (n=18/microrganismo): água; dentifrício experimental; dentifrício específico para próteses totais e dois convencionais; contra C. albicans; C. glabrata; S. mutans; S. aureus; E. coli. Cada grupo teve um controle negativo (n=5; sem contaminação) e um positivo (n=15/ microrganismo; sem higienização). A atividade contra biofilme foi avaliada pelo método de formação do biofilme, em triplicata. Os espécimes foram contaminados, padronizadamente, e incubados. Posteriormente, foi realizada escovação manual (60 s), lavagem em PBS, imersão em meio de cultura líquido para ressuspensão e semeadura em meio sólido. Os resultados (média das triplicatas) foram expressos em UFC/mL. Os dados foram submetidos aos testes Shapiro-Wilk, ANOVA e Tukey (p<0,05). O dentifrício específico (1,27±1,20) foi o mais eficaz contra S. mutans, seguido dos convencionais (Trihydral, 3,13±0,88; Colgate, 2,16±2,02) e experimental (3,81±1,37), que foram semelhantes entre si (p=0,008). Todos eles foram diferentes da água (4,79±1,42). O dentifrício específico (0,21±0,21) e o experimental (0,36±0,25) foram semelhantes contra S. aureus, com maiores médias de UFC quando comparado ao convencional (Colgate, 0,06±0,13), que foi mais eficiente (p=0,000). Para C. albicans, C. glabrata e E.coli, todos os dentifrícios foram similares à água (p=0,186). Conclui-se que o dentifrício experimental foi efetivo somente contra S. aureus e não foi eficiente perante Candida spp.; S. mutans; E. coli, como ocorrido com os dentifrícios comerciais.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a satisfação e a qualidade de vida de pacientes desdentados que tiveram suas próteses totais mandibulares reembasadas com material resiliente (Ufi Gel SC, VOCO, Alemanha). Foram selecionados 20 pacientes desdentados divididos aleatoriamente nos grupos de reembasamento direto ou indireto (n=10). Foram aplicados dois questionários, o OHIP Edent para avaliar a qualidade de vida e um questionário desenvolvido para verificar a satisfação dos pacientes com o uso do reembasador. Os testes clínicos foram realizados em quatro fases durante o tratamento: inicialmente com as próteses totais sem intervenção, 30, 60 e 90 dias após o reembasamento. A análise de variância ANOVA demonstrou que houve uma diferença estatisticamente significante para o fator tempo tanto para a qualidade de vida como para a satisfação (p d" 0,05). Observamos que a qualidade de visa e a satisfação aumentaram após o reembasamento, mas não houve diferença entre os métodos de polimerização testados. O método de polimerização direto é mais simples, menos demorado e menos oneroso para o paciente. Portanto, se não houver diferença entre os métodos de polimerização a longo prazo, não há porque submeter o paciente ao reembasamento indireto(AU)


The aim of this paper was to assess the quality of life and satisfaction for edentulous individuals who had their complete dentures relined with a soft liner material (Ufi Gel SC, VOCO, Germany). A total of 20 patients were selected and divided into two experimental groups, one for a chairside procedure and one for a laboratorial reline (n=10). Two questionnaires were used, the OHIP Edent and a satisfaction form to assess information on the reline material. The tests were performed initially and at 30, 60 and 90 days after the reline. The analysis of variance ANOVA presented a difference for the period evaluation, the quality of life improved after the procedure, but there was no difference between the polymerization methods. The chairside procedure is more simple, faster and more practical for both, professionals and patients. Therefore, if there are no difference in long term results, there is no reason to the patient undergo the laboratorial reline process(AU)

ABSTRACT

Os reembasadores resilientes têm sido amplamente utilizados em pacientes portadores de próteses totais para melhorar a adaptação da base de resina ao rebordo. Esses apresentam dois métodos de polimerização, um feito diretamente na boca do paciente e outro feito indiretamente em laboratório. Não há estudos na literatura que avaliem a percepção dos pacientes com relação a esse tratamento. Portanto o objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a satisfação a qualidade de vida, força de mordida e halitose de pacientes desdentados que tiveram suas próteses totais mandibulares reembasadas com material resiliente (Ufi Gel SC, Voco, Alemanha). Foram selecionados 20 pacientes desdentados seguindo critérios de inclusão e exclusão predefinidos para terem suas próteses mandibulares reembasadas. Estes foram divididos aleatoriamente nos grupos de reembasamento direto ou indireto (n=10). Os ensaios clínicos verificaram a qualidade de vida (OHIP Edent), a satisfação com o reembasamento, a força de mordida e também presença e etiologia de halitose. Os testes clínicos foram realizados inicialmente com as próteses totais sem intervenção, após o reembasamento, aos 30, 60, 90 e 180 dias após o reembasamento. A análise de variância ANOVA (significância de 5%) demonstrou que houve uma diferença estatisticamente significante para o fator tempo para todos os testes, mas a técnica de reembasamento não. Observamos que a qualidade de vida, a satisfação, a força de mordida e halitose melhoraram após o reembasamento. A halitose foi influenciada pelo reembasamento e pela higiene bucal dos pacientes. Apesar de não ter demonstrado diferença estatisticamente entre os métodos de polimerização, foi um resultado favorável tanto para o clínico como para o paciente. Portanto, se não houver diferença entre os métodos de polimerização a longo prazo, não há porque submeter o paciente ao reembasamento indireto. Independentemente do método de polimerização escolhido, o reembasamento com material resiliente a base de silicone demonstrou ser uma alternativa viável para melhorar os aspectos funcionais e a satisfação em pacientes que apresentem dificuldades em utilizar próteses totais mandibulares(AU)


Resilient reliners have been widely used for patients wearing complete dentures to improve the adaptation of the base. They present two polymerization methods, one done directly in the patient's mouth and another done indirectly in the laboratory. There are no studies in the literature that assess the perception of patients regarding this treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to assess, the satisfaction, quality of life of edentulous patients who had their total mandibular prostheses rebased with resilient material (Ufi Gel SC, Voco, Germany). 20 edentulous patients were selected according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. These were randomly divided into the direct or indirect soft reline groups (n = 10). The clinical trial evaluated the quality of life (OHIP Edent), the satisfaction regarding the treatment, the bite force and presence and prevalence of halitosis. The assays were performed in six phases during the treatment: initially with the total prostheses without intervention, after the reline procedure, 30, 60, 90 and 180 days after the reline. The analysis of variance ANOVA (5% significance) demonstrated a statistically significant difference for period in all parameters, but the technique did not influence any of the parameters (P ≤ 0.05). We observed that the QoL, satisfaction, bite force and halitosis increased after the reline. The halitosis was influenced by patients' oral hygiene and the reline procedure. Although it has not demonstrated a statistical difference between polymerization methods, it was a favorable result for both clinicians and patients. The direct polymerization method is simpler, less time consuming and less costly for the patient. Therefore, if there is no long-term difference between polymerization methods, there is no need to perform an indirect procedure. Regardless of the method of polymerization chosen, relining with resilient silicone-based material is a viable alternative to improve the quality of life, satisfaction, bite force and halitosis in patients who have difficulties wearing mandibular dentures(AU)

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo piloto foi comparar a eficácia de um reembasador acrílico macio com ou sem diacetato de clorexidina a 1% no tratamento de pacientes com estomatite protética. As hipóteses testadas foram: (I) o eritema seria melhorado (IIa): a contagem de unidades formadoras de colônias seria reduzida, (IIb): a predominância de um tipo morfológico de Candida seria correlacionada com características clínicas e, (IIc) se uma concentração inibitória mínima do antimicrobiano, poderia ser capaz de atuar sobre o crescimento do fungo. Dezesseis pacientes desdentados totais, portadores de prótese e com estomatite protética foram distribuídos aleatoriamente para os grupos controle (reembasamento com Trusoft) e grupo teste (reembasamento com Trusoft contendo 1% de clorexidina) sendo acompanhados por exames clínicos e laboratoriais por 14 dias. Os parâmetros analisados nas duas consultas de acompanhamento foram: avaliação clínica (exame e fotos) e avaliações microbiológicas (esfregaços e culturas de palato e prótese total). Este estudo foi um ensaio clínico randomizado, duplo-cego,controlado.Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que a superfície do eritema foi significativamente reduzida, mas não diferiu significativamente entre os dois grupos (P> 0,05), assim como a redução da contagem de Candida durante o tratamento entre os grupos (P> 0,05). O tipo de Candida não pôde ser correlacionado ao estágio clínico alcançado. Os resultados dos testes de concentração inibitória mínima, revelaram que uma concentração de 0,05 µg/ml de clorexidina já é capaz de inibir o crescimento de 85% das cepas de testadas.A hipótese principal foi confirmada, o que pode ser interpretado como uma remissão clínica acelerada em ambas as terapias propostas. Embora as hipóteses secundárias não tenham sido confirmadas, a persistência de Candida pode ser apenas a colonização, e a plasticidade morfológica de Candida parece ser fortemente influenciada pela virulência fúngica. Sendo assim, os resultados da análise de concentração inibitória mínima sugerem que uma concentração subinibitória de clorexidina possa estar atuando na virulência da Candida spp. No entanto, não foram encontrados resultados para confirmar a eficácia clínica do diacetato de clorexidina a 1% incorporado ao reembasador macio testado no tratamento da estomatite protética.


The aim of this pilot study was to compare the efficacy of rebase using soft acrylic liner with or without 1% chlorhexidine diacetate in denture stomatitis patients. It was hypothesised that: (I) erythema would be improved (IIa): colony forming unit count would be reduced, (IIb): the predominance of a morphological type of Candida would be correlated with clinical features and, (IIc) a minimum inhibitory concentration of the antimicrobial, could be able to act on the growth of the fungus.Sixteen patients who wearing removable dentures and diagnosed with denture stomatitis were randomly assigned to the control groups (rebase with resilient liner) and test group (rebase with resilient liner containing 1% of chlorhexidine), followed by clinical and laboratory tests for 14 days. The analyzed parameters at two follow-up were: clinical evaluation (examination and photos) and microbiological evaluations (smears and cultures of palates and dentures). This study was a randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial. The results obtained showed that the erythema surface was significantly reduced, but did not differ significantly between the two groups (P> 0.05), as did the reduction of colony forming unit during treatment between the groups (P> 0.05) . The Candida type could not be correlated to the achieved clinical stage. The minimum inhibitory concentration test results showed that a concentration of 0,05 µg/ml chlorhexidine is already able to inhibit the growth of 85% of the tested strains. The primary hypothesis was confirmed, which can be interpreted as an accelerated clinical remission in both proposed therapies. Although secondary hypotheses have not been confirmed, Candida's persistence may be just colonization, and the morphological plasticity of Candida seems to be strongly influenced by fungal virulence. Thus, the results of the minimum inhibitory concentration analysis suggest that a subinhibitory concentration of chlorhexidine may be acting on the virulence of Candida spp. However, no results were found to confirm the clinical efficacy of 1% chlorhexidine diacetate incorporated into the soft liner in denture stomatitis.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of relining materials on the flexural strength of relined thermoplastic denture base resins (TDBRs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: For shear bond strength testing, 120 specimens were fabricated using four TDBRs (EstheShot-Bright, Acrytone, Valplast, Weldenz) that were bonded with three autopolymerizing denture relining resins (ADRRs: Vertex Self-Curing, Tokuyama Rebase, Ufi Gel Hard) with a bond area of 6.0 mm in diameter and were assigned to each group (n=10). For flexural strength testing, 120 specimens measuring 64.0×10.0×3.3 mm (ISO-1567:1999) were fabricated using four TDBRs and three ADRRs and were assigned to each group (n=10). The thickness of the specimens measured 2.0 mm of TDBR and 1.3 mm of ADRR. Forty specimens using four TDBRs and 30 specimens using ADRRs served as the control. All specimens were tested on a universal testing machine. For statistical analysis, Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey's test as post hoc and Spearman's correlation coefficient analysis (P=.05) were performed. RESULTS: Acry-Tone showed the highest shear bond strength, while Weldenz demonstrated the lowest bond strength between TDBR and ADRRs compared to other groups. EstheShot-Bright exhibited the highest flexural strength, while Weldenz showed the lowest flexural strength. Relined EstheShot-Bright demonstrated the highest flexural strength and relined Weldenz exhibited the lowest flexural strength (P < .05). Flexural strength of TDBRs (P=.001) and shear bond strength (P=.013) exhibited a positive correlation with the flexural strength of relined TDBRs. CONCLUSION: The flexural strength of relined TDBRs was affected by the flexural strength of the original denture base resins and bond strength between denture base resins and relining materials.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Evaluating the addition of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antifungals for Candida albicans biofilm on the hardness and roughness of temporary denture soft liners. Specimens (n=8; 36×7×6 mm) of tissue conditioner (Softone) and resilient liner (Trusoft) were produced either without (control) or with incorporation of drugs at MICs: nystatin (0.032 g/mL), chlorhexidine diacetate (0.064 g/mL), ketoconazole (0.128 g/mL), miconazole (0.256 g/mL) and itraconazole (0.256 g/mL). Specimens were stored in distilled water at 37 °C for 24 h, 7 days and 14 days prior to the hardness/roughness measurements. Data were analyzed by 3-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD test (α=0.05). The addition of the antifungals into both materials demonstrated no evident hardness change or decrease of this property compared with the control, except for miconazole in Softone, which increased the hardness after 14 days (p=0.003). The addition of nystatin into both materials, chlorhexidine in Trusoft and ketoconazole in Softone resulted in no significant changes of roughness compared with the control, after 7 days and 14 days (p>0.05). In these periods, itraconazole increased the roughness of both materials (p<0.001). The addition of all antifungals, except for the miconazole in Softone, resulted in no deleterious effects on the materials’ hardness over the evaluation time. The MICs of nystatin in both temporary soft lining materials, ketoconazole in Softone and chlorhexidine in Trusoft resulted in no deleterious effects for roughness up to 14 days.


Resumo Avaliar a adição de antifúngicos nas mínimas concentrações inibitórias (MCIs) para o biofilme de Candida albicans sobre a dureza e rugosidade da reembasadores resilientes temporários. Foram confeccionados corpos de prova (n=8; 36×7×6 mm) a partir de um condicionador de tecido (Softone) e um reembasador resiliente (Trusoft), sem (controle) ou com a incorporação de fármacos nas MCIs: nistatina (0,032 g/mL), diacetato de clorexidina (0,064 g/mL), cetoconazol (0,128 g/mL), miconazol (0,256 g/mL) e itraconazol (0,256 g/mL). Os corpos de prova foram armazenados em água destilada a 37 °C durante 24 h, 7 dias e 14 dias antes das mensurações de dureza e rugosidade. Os dados foram analisados por ANOVA 3-fatores e teste de Tukey HSD (α=0,05). A adição dos antifúngicos em ambos os materiais não demonstrou nenhuma alteração evidente na dureza ou diminuiu esta propriedade em comparação com o controle, exceto para o miconazol no Softone que aumentou a dureza após 14 dias (p=0,003). A adição de nistatina aos dois materiais, clorexidina no Trusoft e cetoconazol no Softone não resultou em alterações significativas de rugosidade em comparação com o controle após 7 e 14 dias (p>0,05). Nestes períodos, o itraconazol aumentou a rugosidade de ambos os materiais (p<0,001). A adição de todos os antifúngicos, exceto para o miconazol no Softone, não resultou em efeitos deletérios sobre a dureza dos materiais ao longo do tempo de avaliação. As MCIs de nistatina em ambos os materiais reembasadores resilientes temporários, cetoconazol no Softone e clorexidina no Trusoft não produziram efeitos deletérios para a rugosidade em até 14 dias.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: este estudo investigou a incidência da adesão de Candida albicans e Staphylococcus aureus em próteses superiores obturadoras com materiais de reembasamento macio utilizados por protesistas. Material e Métodos: entre os anos 2013 e 2014, foram avaliados clinicamente, pacientes com defeitos maxilares devido a cirurgia para remoção de tumores e usuários de próteses obturadoras (n = 21, grupo de estudo) e, as consequências microbiológicas foram comparadas com usuários de prótese total superior (n = 21, controle grupo). Os dados foram coletados sobre características demográficas, tipo histológico de câncer, emprego de quimioterapia ou radioterapia, identificação dos materiais reembasamento macio utilizados e métodos de limpeza praticados nas próteses obturadoras e totais. A presença de Candida albicans foi determinada nos materiais de reembasamento macio ou nas superfícies de polimetilmetacrilato e na cavidade bucal e, Staphylococcus aureus na mucosa nasal e na saliva. Os dados foram analisados utilizando os testes Kruskal Wallis, Fisher-Freeman-Halton (p<0,05). Resultados: A maior quantidade de Candida albicans foi encontrada nas superfícies das próteses, na saliva, nos defeitos no palato duro e no material de reembasamento macio definitivo com 90%, 90% e 70%, respectivamente. A maior quantidade de Staphylococcus aureus foi observada na saliva e na cavidade nasal no grupo de material de reembasamento macio definitivo (50%). Conclusão: o curto período de renovação dos materiais de revestimento pode causar menos colonização de Candida albicans e estomatite protética na cavidade bucal. Os pacientes que sofreram maxilectomia foram mais propensos à colonização de Staphylococcus aureus.(AU)


Objective: This study investigated on the incidence of Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus adhesion onto maxillary obturator prostheses with soft lining materials placed by prosthodontists. Material and Methods: Between years 2013 and 2014, patients with maxillary defects due to maxillary tumor surgery and acquired obturator prostheses (n = 21, study group) were clinically evaluated and microbiological outcomes were compared with complete maxillary denture wearers (n = 21, control group). Data were collected on demographic features, histological type of cancer, presence of chemotherapy or radiotherapy, identification of soft lining materials used on obturator prostheses, cleansing methods practiced for obturator and maxillary complete prostheses. The presence of Candida albicans was determined on soft lining materials or polymethylmethacrylate surfaces and in the oral cavity, and Staphylococcus aureus in nasal mucosa and saliva. Data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis, Fisher-Freeman-Halton tests (p<0.05). Results: The highest amount of Candida albicans was found on surfaces of prostheses, in the saliva and on maxillary defects on the hard palate and on definitive soft lining material with 90%, 90%, and 70%, respectively. The highest amount of Staphylococcus aureus was observed in the saliva and nasal cavity in the definitive soft lining material group (50%). Conclusion: Short renewal period of lining materials may cause less Candida albicans colonisation and denture stomatitis in the oral cavity. Patients who have undergone maxillectomy were more prone to Staphylococcus aureus colonisation.(AU)

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Incorporation of antifungals in temporary denture soft liners has been recommended for denture stomatitis treatment; however, it may affect their properties. Objective: To evaluate the porosity of a tissue conditioner (Softone) and a temporary resilient liner (Trusoft) modified by minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antifungal agents for Candida albicans biofilm. Material and Methods: The porosity was measured by water absorption, based on exclusion of the plasticizer effect. Initially, it was determined by sorption isotherms that the adequate storage solution for specimens (65×10×3.3 mm) of both materials was 50% anhydrous calcium chloride (S50). Then, the porosity factor (PF) was calculated for the study groups (n=10) formed by specimens without (control) or with drug incorporation at MICs (nystatin: Ny-0.032 g, chlorhexidine diacetate: Chx-0.064 g, or ketoconazole: Ke-0.128 g each per gram of soft liner powder) after storage in distilled water or S50 for 24 h, seven and 14 d. Data were statistically analyzed by 4-way repeated measures ANOVA and Tukey's test (α=.05). Results: Ke resulted in no significant changes in PF for both liners in water over 14 days (p>0.05). Compared with the controls, Softone and Trusoft PFs were increased at 14-day water immersion only after addition of Ny and Chx, and Chx, respectively (p<0.05). Both materials showed no significant changes in PF in up to 14 days of S50 immersion, compared with the controls (p>0.05). In all experimental conditions, Softone and Trusoft PFs were significantly lower when immersed in S50 compared with distilled water (p<0.05). Conclusions: The addition of antifungals at MICs resulted in no harmful effects for the porosity of both temporary soft liners in different periods of water immersion, except for Chx and Ny in Softone and Chx in Trusoft at 14 days. No deleterious effect was observed for the porosity of both soft liners modified by the drugs at MICs over 14 days of S50 immersion.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi sintetizar e caracterizar partículas de sílica recobertas com nanopartículas de prata, e avaliar a influência destas quando incorporadas à resina acrílica termicamente ativada e reembasador rígido, em suas características mecânicas e microbiológicas. Uma solução de sílica foi sintetizada pelo método de hidrólise controlada do tetraetilorto silicato (TEOS) em meio alcoólico. Foi adicionada a essa uma solução de nitrato de prata, em duas molaridades (10 mmols e 30 mmols) formando partículas do tipo núcleocasca. Após centrifugação e secagem, cada pó obtido foi adicionado em duas concentrações: 0.5% e 2%, às resinas analisadas. Foram confeccionadas barras retangulares (n=9) de 30 x 10x 3mm para realização do teste de resistência a flexão de três pontos, rugosidade e ângulo de contato; e 120 amostras em forma de disco (2 mmx10 mm) para análise microbiológica. Como grupo controleteve-se amostras sem nanopartículas. As nanopartículas foram analisadas emmicroscopia eletrônica de varredura com microanalisador por energia dispersiva de raios-X integrado (EDS), Difratômetro de Raios-X e microscopia eletrônica de transmissão. Uma suspensão de Candida albicans foi utilizada para análise de aderência fúngica, halo de inibição e concentração inibitória mínima. As fotomicrografias mostraram que as nanopartículas de 10 mmols apresentam uma distribuição mais homogênea e menor agregação das nanopartículas de prata nasuperfície da sílica do que as de 30 mmols. Os resultados indicaram que a resistência a flexão foi afetada negativamente, em ambos materiais, com a adição de 2% de partículas, independente da molaridade. A adição das partículas não alterou a molhabilidade da superfície dos materiais, nem a rugosidade, exceto do grupo de reembasador com partículas de 10mmols, em ambas concentrações. As partículas não apresentaram ação antifúngica para os materiais testados em nenhuma concentração, ...


This research aimed to synthesize, characterize, and evaluate the influence of the addition of silica-silver core/shell particles in mechanical and antifungal characteristics of thermally active acrylic resins or hard reliner . Silica solution was produced by controlled hydrolysis method of tetraethylortho silicate (TEOS) in an alcoholic. It was added a silver nitratesolution in two molarities, 10 and 30 milimols, forming core-shell particles.After centrifugation and drying, each obtained powder was added in two concentrations 0.5% and 2% in the resins analyzed. Rectangular samples(n=9) with 30 x10 x3 mm were made to three point bend test), roughness and contact angle, and 120 samples in disc (2 mmx10 mm) for microbiological analysis Samples without particles were used as control. The nanoparticles were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy with dispersive energy microanalyzer integrated X-rays (EDS), X-ray diffractometer and transmission electron microscopy. Candida albicans suspension was used to adhesion test, inhibition zone and minimum inhibitory concentration.Photomicrograph showed that nanoparticles with 10 milimols show a distribution more uniform and less aggregation of silver nanoparticles on the silica surface than 30 millimols. The Three point bend test results showed that the flexural strength was negatively affected in both materials, with the addition of 2% particles, in both molarity. The addition of the nanoparticles did not change the surface wettability or roughness of the materials, except for except the reliner group with 10mmols, in both concentrations. The nanoparticles showed no antifungal action for the materials tested at any concentration, neither was zone innibition. However, the solution presented minimal inhibitory concentration to 2.000 ppm. We conclude that low concentrations nanoparticles do not affect the mechanical characteristics and surface of the acrylic resin or reliner, however they do not ...

ABSTRACT

A incorporação do diacetato de clorexidina em resinas macias para o reembasamento de próteses removíveis pode se tornar um método eficaz no combate à Candida albicans, principal agente causador da Estomatite Protética. Dessa forma, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos da incorporação do diacetato de clorexidina nas propriedades mecânicas e na rugosidade superficial de duas resinas macias, uma à base de polimetilmetacrilato (PMMA) e outra à base de polietilmetacrilato (PEMA), nas seguintes concentrações: 0% (Controle), 1% (C1) e 2% (C2). Com exceção dos corpos de prova utilizados no tempo T0, os demais foram armazenados em água destilada a 37ºC durante 2, 7 e 14 dias e então analisados quanto a resistência à tração, ao cisalhamento e quanto a rugosidade superficial. Após 14 dias de imersão em água destilada, os resultados do teste de tração indicaram um aumento na resistência dos grupos que receberam diacetato de clorexidina em relação ao grupo Controle, em ambas as resinas (p<0,05). Neste mesmo período, o teste de cisalhamento indicou não ter havido diferença estatísticamente significante entre os grupos quando a resina à base de PEMA foi testada (p>0,05), ao passo que a resina à base de PMMA demonstrou uma dimnuição da resistência do grupo C2, em relação aos demais.Após 14 dias, os testes de rugosidade superficial indicaram que para a resina à base de PMMA, houve uma diminuição da rugosidade superficial do grupo C1 em relação ao grupo C2 (p<0,05). Para a resina à base de PEMA foi possível verificar uma diminuição da rugosidade superficial em ambos os grupos incorporados com diacetato de clorexidina, em relação ao grupo Controle, no 14ºdia de imersão em água destilada (p<0,05). Dessa forma, é possível concluir que a incorporação do diacetato de clorexidina não afetou negativamente as propriedades mecânicas e a rugosidade superficial das resinas macias testadas.


The incorporation of chlorhexidine diacetate in soft resins for the relining of removable dentures can become an effective method against Candida albicans, the main causative agent of Prosthetic stomatitis. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of incorporation of chlorhexidine diacetate on the mechanical properties and surface roughness of two soft resins, one based on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and another based on polyethyl methacrylate (PEMA), the following concentrations : 0% (control), 1% and 2% . Except for specimens of control group (0%), the others were stored in distilled water at 37 ° C for 48 hours, 7 days and 14 days and then analyzed for tensile strength, shear strength and the surface roughness. After 14 days of immersion in distilled water, the results of tensile testing indicated an increase in resistance of the groups that received chlorhexidine diacetate in relation to the control group in both resins (p <0.05). In the same period, the shear test indicated there was no statistically difference between the groups when the PEMA based resin was tested (p> 0.05), while the PMMA based resin showed a decreased of resistance to 2% group, compared to the others. After 14 days, the surface roughness tests indicated that for the PMMA based resin, there was a decrease of surface roughness of the 1% group compared to the 2% group (p <0.05). For PEMA based resin, was verified a decrease in surface roughness in both groups incorporated with chlorhexidine diacetate, compared to the control group, from the seventh day of immersion in distilled water (p <0.05). Thus, it can be concluded that incorporation of chlorhexidine diacetate did not negatively affect the mechanical properties and the surface roughness of the tested soft resins.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo investigou a resistência à tração (ou limite de resistência à tração- LRT) e a porosidade de reembasadores resilientes temporários modificados por concentrações inibitórias mínimas (CIMs) de agentes antifúngicos para o biofilme Candida albicans (SC5314). Para os testes de LRT, corpos de prova em forma de halteres (n=7) com uma área transversal de 33 mm x 6 mm x 3 mm foram produzidos para os materiais resilientes (Trusoft e Softone) sem (controle) ou com incorporação de cinco fármacos em suas CIMs: nistatina- 0,032 g; diacetato de clorexidina- 0,064; cetoconazol- 0,128 g; miconazol- 0,256 g; itraconazol-0,256 g (grama de fármaco por grama de pó de material resiliente). Após a plastificação, as amostras foram imersas em água destilada a 37°C durante 24 h, 7 e 14 dias e, então, testadas em tensão em uma máquina universal de ensaios (EMIC DL-500 MF) a 40 mm/min. A porosidade foi mensurada por absorção de água, com base na exclusão do efeito plastificante. Inicialmente, determinou-se por isotermas de sorção, que a solução de armazenagem adequada para os corpos de prova (65 mm x 10 mm x 3,3 mm) de ambos os materiais foi o cloreto de cálcio anidro a 50% (S50). Assim, o fator de porosidade (FP) foi calculado para os grupos de estudo (n=10) formados por espécimes sem (controle) ou com incorporação de fármaco em suas CIMs (nistatina, clorexidina ou cetoconazol) após a armazenagem em água destilada ou S50 por 24 h, 7 e 14 dias. Os dados de resistência à tração (MPa) e percentagem de alongamento (%) foram submetidos à ANOVA de 3 fatores seguida pelo teste de Tukey (=0,05). Os dados de porosidade foram analisados estatisticamente por ANOVA de medidas repetidas para 4 fatores e teste de Tukey (=0,05). Ao final de 14 dias, a resistência à tração para ambos os materiais foi significativamente menor nos grupos modificados pelo miconazol e itraconazol em relação aos outros grupos (P<0,0001), que não mostraram diferenças significativas entre si (P>0,05). Após 7 e 14 dias em água, o miconazol e itraconazol adicionados a ambos os materiais resultaram em percentagens significativamente menores de alongamento em comparação com os outros fármacos e ao controle (P<0,0001), que foram semelhantes entre si (P>0,05). O cetoconazol não resultou em alterações significativas no FP para ambos os materiais resilientes em água ao longo de 14 dias (P>0,05). Em comparação aos controles, houve aumento dos FPs do Softone e Trusoft aos 14 dias de imersão em água somente após a adição de nistatina e clorexidina e de clorexidina, respectivamente (P<0,05). Ambos os materiais não apresentaram alterações significativas no FP em até 14 dias de imersão na S50, em comparação aos controles (P>0,05). Em todas as condições experimentais, os FPs do Softone e Trusoft foram significativamente menores quando imersos em S50 em comparação com a água destilada (P<0,05). Concluiu-se que a adição de nistatina, clorexidina e cetoconazol nas CIMs para o biofilme de C. albicans não resultou em efeitos deletérios na resistência à tração e na percentagem de alongamento dos materiais resilientes temporários para base de prótese até o período de 14 dias. A adição de antifúngicos nas CIMs não resultou em efeitos adversos à porosidade de ambos os materiais resilientes temporários em diferentes períodos de imersão em água, com exceção da clorexidina e nistatina no Softone e clorexidina no Trusoft aos 14 dias. Não foram observados efeitos deletérios para a porosidade de ambos os materiais resilientes modificados com as CIMs dos fármacos durante os 14 dias de imersão na S50.(AU)


This study investigated the tensile strength (ultimate tensile strength- UTS) and porosity of temporary soft denture liners modified by minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antifungal agents for Candida albicans biofilm (SC5314). For UTS tests, dumbbell-shaped specimens (n=7) with a central cross-sectional area of 33 mm x 6 mm x 3 mm were produced by resilient materials (Trusoft and Softone) without (control) or with incorporation of five drugs at MICs: nystatin- 0.032 g; chlorhexidine diacetate-0.064 g; ketoconazole- 0.128 g; miconazole- 0.256 g; itraconazole- 0.256 g (each per gram of soft liner powder). After plasticization, specimens were immersed in distilled water at 37°C for 24 h, 7 and 14 days, and then tested in tension in a universal testing machine (EMIC DL-500 MF) at 40 mm/min. The porosity was measured by water absorption, based on exclusion of the plasticizer effect. Initially, it was determined by sorption isotherms that the adequate storage solution for specimens (65 mm x 10 mm x 3.3 mm) of both materials was 50% anhydrous calcium chloride (S50). Then, the porosity factor (PF) was calculated for the study groups (n=10) formed by specimens without (control) or with drug incorporation at MICs (nystatin, chlorhexidine or ketoconazole) after storage in distilled water or S50 for 24 h, 7 and 14 days. Data of tensile strength (MPa) and elongation percentage (%) were submitted to 3-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's test (=0.05). Data of porosity were statistically analyzed by 4-way repeated measures ANOVA and Tukeys test (=0.05). At the end of 14 days, the tensile strength for both materials was significantly lower in the groups modified by miconazole and itraconazole compared to the other groups (P<0.0001), which showed no significant difference between them (P>0.05). After 7 and 14 days in water, miconazole and itraconazole added into both materials result in significant lower elongation percentages compared to the other drugs and control (P<.0001), which were similar to each other (P>0.05). Ketoconazole resulted in no significant changes in PF for both liners in water over 14 days (P>0.05). Compared to the controls, Softone and Trusoft PFs were increased at 14-day water immersion only after addition of nystatin and chlorhexidine, and chlorhexidine, respectively (P<0.05). Both materials showed no significant changes in PF in up to 14 days of S50 immersion, compared to the controls (P>0.05). In all experimental conditions, Softone and Trusoft PFs were significantly lower when immersed in S50 compared to distilled water (P<0.05). It was concluded that the addition of the nystatin, chlorhexidine and ketoconazole at MICs for C. albicans biofilm resulted in no harmful effects on the ultimate tensile strength and elongation percentage of the temporary soft denture liners up to 14-day period. The addition of antifungals at MICs resulted in no detrimental effects for the porosity of both temporary soft liners in different periods of water immersion, except for chlorhexidine and nystatin in Softone and chlorhexidine in Trusoft at 14 days. No deleterious effect was observed for the porosity of both soft liners modified by the drugs at MICs over 14 days of S50 immersion.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Reembasadores resilientes temporários contendo fármacos antifúngicos foram sugeridos como um tratamento adjunto para estomatite protética. No entanto, antes de utilizar clinicamente estes reembasadores modificados em humanos, é importante avaliar a sua biocompatibilidade em modelos animais. Este estudo avaliou a biocompatibilidade in vivo de um reembasador resiliente temporário para base de prótese (Trusoft) modificado por agentes antimicrobianos em suas mínimas concentrações inibitórias (MCIs) para biofilme de Candida albicans. Dispositivos acrílicos intra-orais (DIOs) foram confeccionados individualmente para 60 ratos Wistar. Os ratos foram divididos em 6 grupos (n=5): 3 grupos controle (Negativo: sem DIO; Geral: DIO sem reembasamento; Positivo: DIO reembasado com Trusoft sem fármacos) e 3 grupos experimentais (DIOs reembasados com Trusoft modificados por fármacos em suas respectivas MCIs: 0,032 g de nistatina, 0,064 g de diacetato de clorexidina e 0,128 g de cetoconazol). Os ratos com ou sem os DIOs foram eutanasiados após 7 e 14 dias de avaliação. A análise histopatológica qualitativa foi realizada comparando-se fotomicrografias de secções histológicas, que foram obtidas utilizando um microscópio óptico que abrangeu transversalmente a região intermolares. As alterações morfológicas no epitélio e queratina foram analisadas quantitativamente através da realização de planimetria computadorizada. Os dados quantitativos foram analisados utilizando ANOVA 2-fatores e teste de Tukey (=0,05). A análise quantitativa mostrou que apenas o grupo com DIO contendo cetoconazol diminuiu significativamente a espessura e a área do estrato córneo em comparação com os outros grupos (p<0,05), que não apresentaram diferenças significativas entre si (p>0,05). Estes resultados estiveram de acordo com os obtidos para análise qualitativa. A incorporação de MCIs de nistatina e diacetato de clorexidina no Trusoft não induziram alterações histopatológicas na mucosa palatina de ratos, sugerindo a biocompatibilidade in vivo deste protocolo para o tratamento de estomatite protética.(AU)


Temporary resilient denture liners containing antifungal drugs have been suggested as an adjunct treatment for denture stomatitis. However, before clinically using these modified liners in humans, it is important to assess their biocompatibility in animal models. This study evaluated the in vivo biocompatibility of a temporary soft denture liner (Trusoft) modified by antimicrobial agents at their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for biofilm formation by Candida albicans. Methods: Acrylic intraoral devices (IODs) were individually made for 60 Wistar rats. The rats were divided into the following 6 groups (n=5): 3 control groups (Negative: without IOD; General: IOD without relining; Positive: IOD relined with Trusoft without drugs) and 3 experimental groups (IOD relined with Trusoft modified by drugs at MICs: 0.032 g for nystatin, 0.064 g for chlorhexidine diacetate, and 0.128 g for ketoconazole). The rats with or without the IODs were sacrificed after 7 or 14 days of evaluation. Histopathological qualitative analysis was performed by comparing photomicrographs of histological sections, which were obtained using an optical microscope that transversely covered the inter-molar region. Morphological changes in the epithelium and keratin were quantitatively analyzed by performing computerized planimetry. Quantitative data were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (=0.05). Quantitative analysis showed that only the group with IOD containing ketoconazole significantly decreased the thickness and area of the stratum corneum compared with the other groups (p<0.05), which showed no significant differences between each other (p>0.05). These results were in accordance with those obtained for qualitative analysis. Incorporation of MICs of nystatin and chlorhexidine diacetate in Trusoft did not induce histopathological changes in the palatal mucosa of rats, suggesting the in vivo biocompatibility of this protocol for treating denture stomatitis.(AU)

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT. Introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the influence of a liner on veneering porcelain bond strength to two zirconia systems using a slow cooling protocol. Methods: twenty zirconia blocks were fabricated (12 x 11 x 4 mm), sintered, and layered with a veneering porcelain (5 x 11 x 4 mm, IPS e.max Ceram, Ivoclar Vivadent) using a slow cooling protocol. Four groups were evaluated: IPS e.max ZirCAD (Ivoclar Vivadent) with liner (IL) and without liner (IX), and Ecco-Zirconia (Amann Girrbach) with liner (EL) and without liner (EX) liner. Shear bond strength (SBS) test was conducted and failure modes were recorded. Results: the one-way ANOVA test yielded no significant statistical differences among the four groups (p = 0.662). The mean SBS values (±SD) in MPa were 15.2 (±1.7) MPa for EX, 15.3 (±2.0) MPa for EL, 16.4 (±4.2) MPa for IX, and 13.5 (±1.4) MPa for IL. All the samples showed a combined adhesive/cohesive failure. Conclusions: application of a liner did not alter the bond strength between veneering porcelain and zirconia when using a slow cooling protocol. No differences were found among the tested zirconia blocks.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Aim: To evaluate the sorption, solubility and color change in two lining materials after 120 days of immersion in either sodium perborate or artificial saliva. Methods: Thirty disk-shaped specimens (15×3 mm) of each material, Mucopren(r) soft (MS) and Elite(r) soft (ES) were manufactured and divided into two groups. The specimens in the control group (CG, n=15) were stored in artificial saliva at 37 °C. The specimens in the experimental group (EG, n=15) were stored in artificial saliva at 37 °C and immersed in sodium perborate daily for 5 min. The analysis of sorption and solubility was based on the initial dry weight and on the wet and dry weights after immersion. The color was assessed with a portable spectrophotometer and the NBS system. ANOVA and Tukey test (p<0.05) were used to analyze color and sorption. The solubility was analyzed by KruskalWallis test (p<0.05). Results: Sorption was higher in the EG group (0.31±0.08) than in the control group (0.26±0.05), and higher in Elite(r) soft relining (0.34±0.07) than in Mucopren(r) soft (0.23±0.06). There was no interaction between the factors. Elite(r) Soft presented a higher solubility when immersed in artificial saliva (CG: 0.16±0.07 and EG: 0.13±0.06; p=0.00). Mucopren(r) soft showed no solubility in either treatment. Regarding the color changes, there was a significant difference between the groups (CG: 9.2±1.2 and EG: 9.9±1.2; p=0.025) but not between the materials (Mucopren(r) soft: 9.4±1.3 and Elite(r)soft: 9.7±1.0; p=0.34). Using the NBS system, we verified that both materials presented a high color change. Conclusions: The daily use of sodium perborate promoted changes in the liners' sorption and color. Elite(r) soft relining was more prone to changes than Mucopren(r) soft.

ABSTRACT

The effect of Candida albicans biofilms and methyl methacrylate (MMA) pretreatment on the bond strength between soft denture liners and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin was analyzed. Specimens were prepared and randomly divided with respect to PMMA pretreatment, soft liner type (silicone-based or PMMA-based), and presence or absence of a C. albicans biofilm. Samples were composed of a soft denture liner bonded between two PMMA bars. Specimens (n = 10) were incubated to produce a C. albicans biofilm or stored in sterile PBS for 12 days. The tensile bond strength test was performed and failure type was determined using a stereomicroscope. Surface roughness (SR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis were performed on denture liners (n = 8). Highest bond strength was observed in samples containing a silicone-based soft liner and stored in PBS, regardless of pretreatment (p < 0.01). Silicone-based specimens mostly underwent adhesive failures, while samples containing PMMA-based liners predominantly underwent cohesive failures. The silicone-based specimens SR decreased after 12 days of biofilm accumulation or PBS storage, while the SR of PMMA-based soft liners increased (p < 0.01). The PMMA-based soft liners surfaces presented sharp valleys and depressions, while silicone-based specimens surfaces exhibited more gentle features. In vitro exposure to C. albicans biofilms reduced the adhesion of denture liners to PMMA resin, and MMA pretreatment is recommended during relining procedures.
