Abstract

The colonizing of temporary soft lining materials in the oral cavity by yeast-like fungi, particularly Candida albicans, poses a significant risk of complications during prosthetic treatment. Various experimental materials incorporating antimicrobial additives, such as drugs, natural oils, and inorganic particles, have been tested. However, these components are not chemically bonded to a polymer network, making them prone to being easily released into the surrounding environment. This study aimed to evaluate experimental soft lining materials containing liquid components with 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl-2-decylhydroxyethylmethylammonium bromide, a monomethacrylate monomer with a quaternary ammonium group, added at concentrations of 8.54%, 8.75%, and 14.90% by weight. The adherence of Candida albicans, cytotoxicity, glass transition temperature (Tg), sorption (WS), solubility (WSL), Shore A hardness (SHA), tensile strength (TS), and tensile bond strength (TBS) were tested. Two tested materials did not show cytotoxicity for the 2-day undiluted extracts. The Candida albicans adhesions were reduced for two materials. The SHA values compared to the control were varied but all decreased with time. WS and WSL increased compared to the control. The TBS values were at an acceptable level.

期刊介绍： Molecules (ISSN 1420-3049, CODEN: MOLEFW) is an open access journal of synthetic organic chemistry and natural product chemistry. All articles are peer-reviewed and published continously upon acceptance. Molecules is published by MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Our aim is to encourage chemists to publish as much as possible their experimental detail, particularly synthetic procedures and characterization information. There is no restriction on the length of the experimental section. In addition, availability of compound samples is published and considered as important information. Authors are encouraged to register or deposit their chemical samples through the non-profit international organization Molecular Diversity Preservation International (MDPI). Molecules has been launched in 1996 to preserve and exploit molecular diversity of both, chemical information and chemical substances.
