    Development of Resin-Based Dental Composites Containing Hydroxyapatite and Zirconia Nanoparticles
    (Wiley, 2024) Tanoğlu, Metin; Tunca Taşkıran, Senagül; Cerci, Nazife; Cevahir, Aref; Damar, Ceren Turkdogan; Unver, Elcin; Aktas, Mustafa Ilker; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In clinical applications, resin-based dental composites primarily face challenges with fractures and secondary caries. To overcome these issues, the physical characteristics of dental composites, especially mechanical properties, need to be improved. Hydroxyapatite (HA), present in the structure of the teeth, is preferred due to its biological properties, and zirconia (ZrO2) nanoparticles are known to enhance the mechanical properties of this type of composites. The aim of this study is to develop resin-based dental composites containing HA and ZrO2 nanoparticles. The study also aims to explore the synergistic effect of these two nanoparticles on the physical properties of the developed composites. Composites with nine different compositions were prepared by mixing the components with the help of a mortar mill. The flexural and compressive strength, polymerization shrinkage, depth of cure and water sorption, and solubility properties of the prepared composites have been investigated. All composites have been found to meet the requirements of ISO 4049 standard. Among them, composite containing 5 wt. % HA and 1 wt. % ZrO2 (H5Z1) has exhibited the highest flexural strength with an increase of 58% compared to the control sample, and composite containing 3 wt. % HA and 2 wt. % ZrO2 (H3Z2) has exhibited the highest compressive strength with an increase of 22% compared to the control sample. Other physical properties of the composites have been found to be in an acceptable level.Highlights Dental composites with HA and ZrO2 fillers were developed by a mortar mill. Synergistic effect of HA and ZrO2 nanoparticles was investigated. Mechanical properties of dental composites were significantly improved. Physical properties of dental composites were found to be at acceptable levels. Depth of cure decreases with increasing HA and ZrO2 loading.

    Effects of Zirconia and Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles on the Mechanical Properties of the Resin-Based Dental Composites
    (01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Tanoğlu, Metin; Tunca Taşkıran, Senagül; Tanoğlu, Metin; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The majority of the population suffers from dental caries, one of the most common chronic diseases. Therefore, restoration of teeth is an urgent need. The materials used in restoration are composites prepared by adding inorganic components to the polymeric matrix. However, failure due to fractures and secondary caries is still the main problem. Therefore, studies are continuing to improve the mechanical properties and water sorption and solubility properties of the composite. In this study, effects of zirconia, which improves the mechanical properties, and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, which are the components of the tooth, on the mechanical properties of the composite were investigated. According to the literature, amounts of additives were determined as 1 and 2 wt.% for zirconia and 3 and 5 wt.% for hydroxyapatite. Nine different composites were prepared by mixing with hand spatulation method and mortar mill. The flexural strength and modulus, compressive strength, depth of cure, water sorption and solubility properties of the composites were investigated. Samples were characterized by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Zirconia and HA particles significantly improved the flexural and compressive strength of the composites. The highest flexural strength was obtained in the sample containing 5 wt.% hydroxyapatite and 1 wt.% zirconia, with an increase of 58% compared to the control sample. The highest compressive strength was obtained in the sample containing 3 wt.% hydroxyapatite and 2 wt.% zirconia, with an increase of 22% compared to the control sample. Therefore, zirconia and HA nanoparticles have a synergistic effect.
