Adhesive antimicrobial and/or reparative dentin stimulating dental compositions and methods for forming and using such compositions

摘要

Adhesive antimicrobial dental compositions and methods for forming and using compositions are disclosed. The compositions are primarily useful as pulp caps and dentin liners. The composition includes an alkyl methacrylate having an oxyphosphorus group, a polymerization initiator and an antimicrobial agent. The antimicrobial agent can be organohalogens, antibiotics, alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal oxides and alkaline earth metal hydroxides. The compositions have high dentin tensile bond strength, are stable as a single component or package system, can be polymerized in situ, prevent ingress by microorganisms into an area of a tooth treated with the compositions and can be syringe delivered.
