Abstract
Proanthocyanidin (PA) has demonstrated promise as a dental biomodifier for maintaining dentin collagen integrity, yet there is limited evidence regarding its efficacy in dentin repair. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of PA on dentin remineralization through the polymer induced liquid precursor (PILP) process, as well as to assess the mechanical properties of the restored dentin. Demineralized dentin was treated with a PA-contained remineralization medium, resulting in the formation of PA-amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) nanoparticles via the PILP process. The kinetics and microstructure of remineralized dentin were examined through the use of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), attenuated total reflectance-FTIR, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that the application of PA facilitated the process of dentin remineralization, achieving completion within 48 h, demonstrating a notable reduction in time required. Following remineralization, the mechanical properties of the dentin exhibited an elastic modulus of 15.89 ± 1.70 GPa and a hardness of 0.47 ± 0.08 GPa, which were similar to those of natural dentin. These findings suggest that combining PA with the PILP process can promote dentin remineralization and improve its mechanical properties, offering a promising new approach for dentin repair in clinical practice.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials is concerned with the mechanical deformation, damage and failure under applied forces, of biological material (at the tissue, cellular and molecular levels) and of biomaterials, i.e. those materials which are designed to mimic or replace biological materials.
The primary focus of the journal is the synthesis of materials science, biology, and medical and dental science. Reports of fundamental scientific investigations are welcome, as are articles concerned with the practical application of materials in medical devices. Both experimental and theoretical work is of interest; theoretical papers will normally include comparison of predictions with experimental data, though we recognize that this may not always be appropriate. The journal also publishes technical notes concerned with emerging experimental or theoretical techniques, letters to the editor and, by invitation, review articles and papers describing existing techniques for the benefit of an interdisciplinary readership.
