ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate physicochemical properties, long-term microtensile bond strength and cytotoxicity of methacrylate-based adhesive containing boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) as fillers.MethodsA dental adhesive was formulated using BisGMA/HEMA, 66/33wt% (control). Inorganic BNNT fillers were incorporated into the adhesive at different concentrations (0.05, 0.075, 0.1 and 0.15wt%). Analyses of degree of conversion (DC), polymerization rate [Rp.(s−1)], contact angle (CA) on dentin, after 24h and 6 months microtensile bond strength (μTBS-24h and 6 months) were assessed. Cytotoxicity was performed through viability of fibroblast cells (%) by sulforhodamine B (SRB) colorimetry.ResultsDC and max. polymerization rate increased (p<0.05) after incorporating 0.075 and 0.1wt% BNNT. The contact angle on dentin increased (p<0.05) after incorporating 0.15wt% BNNT. The μTBS-24h showed no changes (p>0.05) after incorporating up to 0.15wt% BNNT comparing to control. After 6 months, μTBS decreased (p<0.05) for control and 0.15wt% BNNT and BNNT groups up to 0.15wt% showed higher μTBS than control (p<0.05). No difference of fibroblast growth was found among adhesives (p>0.05) and up to 19% of cell viability was found comparing 0.05wt% BNNT to positive control group (100%).SignificanceIncorporating boron nitride nanotubes up to 0.1wt% into dental adhesive increased the long-term stability to dentin without decreasing viability of fibroblast cell growth. Thus, the use of BNNTs as filler may decrease failure rate of current dentinal adhesives.
