Dental materials

materials used in the treatment of dental disease

preventive dental materials

prevents progression of tooth decay/periodontal disease

restorative materials

Repairs or replaces tooth structure

temporary restorative materials

short term/ matter of months

interim restorative materials

used for a moderate time; 1-4 years

permanent restorative materials

used for 5 years or more

Auxiliary dental materials

used in the fabrication of prosthetics

National Bureau of Standards (NBS)

*Program that held FIRST controlled study of dental materials

*Evolved in need during WWI


*Made specifications for wrought and casting golds


*This program's Dental Research Fellowship was assumed by the ADA in 1928

American Dental Association (ADA)

*1928- this program assumed the Dental Research Fellowship at NBS


*Programs developed by this program are used by FDA as part of regulatory process for medical devices and products in the U.S.



Council on Dental Materials, Instruments and Equipment (CDMIE)

*1966- this program was created through cooperation between ADA and NBS


*1994- combined with Council on Dental Therapeutics and the Council on Dental Research to form the Council on Scientific Affairs (CSA)





Council on Scientific Affairs

*1994- this program was formed by combination of CDMIE, Council on Dental Therapeutics, and the Council on Dental Research


*A program in the ADA


*evaluates all dental drugs, materials, instruments and equipment


*only program authorized to grant the ADA seal


*Administrative sponsor of 2 standards committees

ADA Standards Committee for Dental Products

*Decides what tests are necessary for a material to meet the requirements of a specification



American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

*Directs two standards committees for the ADA's CSA

Acceptance Program

*Program of the ADA


*Voluntary program to which companies choose to submit their products (product samples, lab test results, clinical studies)


*Reviewed by CSA



Process for a product to be evaluated for acceptance in ADA's acceptance program

1.) CSA staff conduct preliminary data analysis


2.) Submission sent to outside consultants


3.) Submission forwarded to CSA for decision of ADA's Seal of Acceptance

FDA

*1976- given authority to help ADA control safety and efficacy for dental materials





Classes of Efficacy Standards of the FDA

Class I- general controls (manufacturing, labeling)


Class II- meets ADA, FDA, ISO standards


Class III- for untested products (requires biological tests and two independent clinical studies)



International Standards Organization

*international body dedicated to developing international standards


*includes ANSI as the U.S. member

TC106- Dentistry

*an international technical committee in the ISO responsible for standardizing terminology and test methods


*develops standards for dental materials, instruments, and equipment



Physical considerations in oral environment

1.) Biting forces

2.) Temperature changes


3.) Acidity



Biological considerations in oral environment

1.) Sensitivity (to micro leakage from imperfectly sealed margins)


2.) Galvanic Shock (gold crown touching new amalgam)


3.) Allergenicity/toxicity of materials

Gas

State of matter with free movement of molecules, low molecular attraction, and rapid diffusion

Liquid

State of matter in which attraction exists between molecules, but not enough to make molecules fixed; results in more internal friction and therefore slower diffusion rates

solid

State of matter in which molecules are relatively fixed and movement occurs as vibrations around fixed centers of location




Diffusion rates are slow

Primary bonds

Bonds in which the outer shell of electrons is stable

Ionic bonds

Electrostatic attraction of positive and negative charges, like in NaCl




Lower electrical and thermal activity seen in materials with these bonds than with metallic bonds




Brittle

Covalent bonds

Bonds that are strongly directional and have immovable bond angles; typical in organic compounds




Low electrical and thermal conductivity




valence electrons are shared equally between atoms

Metallic bonds

Formed by atoms possessing 1, 2, or 3 electrons in outer shells




Regular packing of atoms occurs, resulting in long range ordering




atoms are able to slide over one another



Fluctuating dipoles

A type of secondary bond with temporary partial charges which change; very weak

Permanent dipoles

Type of secondary bond in which partial charges arise from differences in electronegativity (like C-Cl bond)




molecular sliding is permitted; important in polymers



Hydrogen bonds

Strongest secondary bond




Permanent dipole
