Conventional Composite Resin Material: Components and BPA Concerns
Here are the components of conventional composite resin and some insights into the concerns regarding Bisphenol-A (BPA):
Components of Conventional Composite Resin:
- Resin matrix
- Inorganic fillers
- Coupling agents
Bisphenol-A (BPA) and Dental Composite Resins:
- BPA is a compound with estrogen-mimicking effects.
- BPA is a precursor used in manufacturing Bis-GMA, a common monomer in dental composite resins.
- Trace amounts of BPA can be found in most dental composite resins.
- Over time, Bis-GMA within the set fillings can break down, potentially releasing BPA.
- The levels of BPA found in dental fillings and the released levels are considered safe.
- However, there are other sources of BPA exposure in our daily lives, and we aim to minimize cumulative exposure.
