Comparison of Cytotoxicity of Four Different Adhesive Materials Before and After Polymerisation

Cangul, Suzan / Adiguzel, Ozkan / Tekin, SametPage 43 - 51Introduction: The aim of this study was to make a quantitative comparison of the cytotoxic potentials of four different polymerised and unpolymerised self-etching adhesives which were newly used clinically.Materials and Methods: Cytotoxic effects of both polymerised and unpolymerised forms of all test adhesives were evaluated against L929 cell line using the MTT test. The activity for unpolymerised adhesives was assessed in different doses and incubation times manner. On the other hand, cytotoxicity of the polymerised adhesives prepared at different extraction times were evaluated as dependent on incubation times. Two-Way Variance Analysis and Bonferroni post-test was used for statistical evaluation.Results: There were statistically significant differences between the groups (p
