Dental caries is mainly caused by acid produced by oral biofilm, and composite dental restorations are the most common treatment for dental caries. The main cause of treatment failure is secondary caries near the restoration. Antibacterial agents have been studied and improved to enhance the long-term survival of dental materials by selectively inhibiting bacterial growth or survival. This article discusses the success and applications of antibacterial agents in dental bonding systems.
Dental caries is mainly caused by oral biofilm acid, and the most common dental restoration treatment is composite dental restorations. The main cause of failure is secondary caries adjacent to the restoration. Long-term survival of dental materials is improved by the presence of antibacterial agents, which selectively inhibit bacterial growth or survival. Chemical, natural and biomaterials have been studied for their antimicrobial activities and antibacterial bonding agents have been improved. Their usage has been increased to inhibit the growth of invading and residual bacteria in the oral cavity, as biofilm accumulation increases the risk of treatment failure. In this article, the success and applications of antibacterial agents are discussed in dental bonding systems.
