RESIN
1.

2.

Any of various solid or semisolid amorphous natural organic substances that usually are transparent or translucent and brown to yellow; usually formed in plant secretions; are soluble in organic solvents but not water; are used chiefly in varnishes, inks, plastics, and medicine; and are found in many dental impression materials A broad term used to describe natural or synthetic substances that form plastic materials after polymerization.

They are named according to their chemical composition, physical structure, and means for activation of polymerization

ACRYLIC RESIN (POLYMETHYL METHACRYLATE)

Why? Desirable qualities:

Good esthetics Cheap Easy to process Not strong enough Susceptible to distortion Low thermal conductivity Radiolucent

Disadvantages:

DENTAL USED
Denture base material Denture repair Denture teeth Soft liners Construction of customized trays Soft tissue replication on cast metal framework

POLIMERIZATION
I. II.

Heat-Cure Cold/Self cure

The reaction is an addition polymerization reaction to convert MMA (methyl methacrylate) to PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). Mono= single Poly= many

HEAT CURE
Powder : Beads or granules of PMMA Initiator: benzoyl peroxide Pigments Opacifiers : titanium/zinc oxide Plasticiser : dibutyl phthalate Synthetic fibers : nylon/acrylic

Liquid : Methyl methacrylate monomer Cross-linking agent : ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. This component improves mechanical properties

COLD/SELF CURE

Composition : identical to heat cure resin except polymerization is initiated by tertiary amine (e.g. sulfinic acid or dimethyl-ptoluidine). They contain an inhibitor (hydroquinone) that destroys free radicals to prolong working time

COLD CURE RESIN USED FOR MAKING SPECIAL TRAYS

COLD VS HEAT CURE

Smaller polymer beads are used in cold cure resin to ease dissolution in monomer. Cold curing method results in a polymer with a lower molecular weight leading to :

Lower

strength Residual uncured monomer Lower color stability, more prone to yellowing More prone to creep and therefore distortion

4. 5. 6.

Tooth-coloured, have excellent aesthetics and good colour stability. Mercury-free. Conservative of tooth substance as mechanical retention and resistance features are not requaired. Can be bonded to enamel and dentine. Low thermal conductivity, insulating pulp from temperature changes. No galvanic potential.

DISADVANTAGES OF RESIN COMPOSITES

Shrinkage on polimerization (0,6-9% by volume) The dentin-composite bond may degrade with time. The coefficient of thermal expansion of resin composite is typically two to six time higher than that of tooth substance. Sorbtion of water by resin composite.
