Dental restorative formulations comprising an additive material and a capsule incorporated into the continuous phase of a dental material. The additive material includes one or more alkoxy groups and one or more vinyl groups. The capsule includes a catalyst and a molecule with one or more silanol groups. The dental restorative formulation is applied and polymerized to form a composite. When a disturbance occurs in the dental composite, the capsule ruptures so that the catalyst initiates a condensation reaction between the molecule with one or more silanol groups and the one or more alkoxy groups thereby healing the dental composite.
Dental restorative formulations comprising two additives incorporated into the continuous phase of a dental material. One additive contains a capsule with a radical initiator. The other additive contains a capsule with one or more monomers and a radical accelerator. The dental restorative formulation is applied and polymerized to form a composite. When a disturbance occurs in the dental composite, the capsules of the additives rupture so that the radical accelerator of the second capsule decomposes the radical initiator of the first capsule to polymerize the one or more monomers of the second capsule thereby healing the dental composite. The radical accelerator controls the rate of decomposition of the radical initiator.
The present invention is directed to compositions, products and methods useful for bone and tooth mineralization. The compositions comprise polymer microcapsules containing aqueous salt solutions. The shells of the microcapsules can be semi-permeable or impermeable. Solutions of calcium, fluoride and phosphate salts are particularly useful in the compositions of the invention. The microcapsules are preferably prepared by surfactant free inverse emulsion interfacial polymerization. Bone products include cements, scaffolds and bioactive glass. Dental products include pastes, gels, rinses and many other dental materials.
Dental restorative composites having self-healing capabilities to repair discontinuities in the composite are provided. Dental restorative composites according to the present invention include a microsphere that encapsulates a monomer. When a fracture occurs, the microsphere is ruptured and the monomer fills the fracture. Depending on the monomer present in the microsphere, it is polymerized by a polymerization initiator or by an olefin metathesis catalyst present in the dental restorative composite. Self-healing dental restorative composites provide increased resistance to fracturing, and thus remain substantially intact for a longer period of time, preserving the remedial integrity of the dental repair or reconstruction.
