Abstract

A eugenol-free dental cement comprises as first component zinc oxide, calcium hydroxide or magnesium oxide or hydroxide and as second component a mixture of o- ethoxybenzoic acid and a hydrogenated rosin.

Description

SPECIFICATION Improvements in dental cements The present invention relates to an improved dental cement.
Dental cement is a known class of material and is used, for example, to cement dental restorations and appliances, for lining material to place under a restoration to provide thermal and chemical insulation for the tooth pulp, for luting materials and for temporary fillings.
A well known kind of dental cement is formed by mixing zinc oxide with eugenol to produce a hard coherent mass consisting of zinc oxide embedded in a matrix of a zinc eugenolate chelate formed by the reaction
It is known to accelerate the hardening reaction by addition of an accelerator such as zinc acetate and to incorporate a reinforcing resin such as polystyrene. Zinc oxide/eugenol cements are suitable for lining materials because they are bland but suffer from the defect of mechanical weakness.
The formation of dental cements of the zinc oxide/eugenol type but of improved mechanical strength has been described by Brauer et al [J. Dent. Res. 37, 547 (1958)]. Up to 60% of the eugenol is replaced with o-ethoxybenzoic acid and addition of reinforcing filler was found to give substantial strength improvements in originally rather weak materials. But these materials were difficult to mix, especially when a resinous reinforcing material was present. And the hydroxyl groups in the eugenol present inhibits free radical polymerisation so that, for example, an acrylic monomer-polymer slurry placed over an eugenol containing cement will not harden, so that it cannot be used as a lining material under most polymer-based restorative materials. Furthermore eugenol stains polymer-based and other restorative materials including silicate cement.
It has also been proposed in U.S. Patent No. 3047488 to form a dental cement by mixing calcium hydroxide with an ester of salicylic acid. Such cements are successful insofar as their alkaline nature stimulates the growth of secondary dentine and protects tooth pulp from acidic superstrates. But the hardened cement is even weaker than simple zinc oxide/eugenol cements.
An object of the invention is to provide a dental cement that does not contain eugenol and does not suffer from mixing problems.
The invention provides a dental cement comprising as first component zinc oxide or calcium hydroxide or magnesium oxide or hydroxide and as second component a mixture of o-ethoxybenzoic acid and a hydrogenated rosin.
It further provides a method for making a dental cement comprising mixing o-ethoxybenzoic acid and hydrogenated rosin to form a mixture that is a liquid or paste at ambient temperatures, adding zinc oxide or calcium hydroxide or magnesium oxide or hydroxide to the mixture and allowing the resulting dental cement to set.
O-ethoxybenzoic is a crystalline solid melting at 250C and is not suitable for use on its own as an ingredient of dental cement. The presence of eugenol in the Brauer et al compositions maintains the material in a liquid state but because there is maximum strength in such cements at a 2-ethoxybenzoic acid to eugenol ratio of 5:3 it is believed that chemical species other than pure zinc eugenolate and zinc 2-ethoxybenzoate are formed and that the cement does not behave as a simple mixture of the two parent cements [Wilson et al. J. Dent. Res. 53, 146 (1 974)]. This invention is based on the use of hydrogenated rosin (which contains hydrogenated abietic acids) as a melting point depressant in place of eugenol. In solution, the hydrogenated abietic acids may also undergo chemical reaction with zinc oxide.
A suitable hydrogenated rosin is available from the Hercules Chemical Company under the trade name Staybelite and consists predominantly of a mixture of dihydroabietic acid and tetrahydroabietic acid. A liquid material for use as an ingredient of dental cement may be made by melting the oethoxybenzoic acid and adding preferably 5-1 5% w/v of hydrogenated rosin. The liquid can be converted to a paste of suitable viscosity by melting a compatible relatively high melting point material in the liquid so that it becomes intimately mixed therewith and allowing the resulting mixture to cool.
Thus the above liquid may be heated to a temperature of 80--900C, 5--15% w/v of powdered Carnauba wax (m.p.m 800 C) may be added and the solution allowed to cool to a paste-like consistency. If desired acetic acid may be added as accelerator and it functions, in the case of zinc oxide, by causing zinc ions to be released and where the zinc oxide is coated (see below) by dissolving the coating.
The zinc oxide or calcium hydroxide or magnesium oxide or hydroxide may be provided in the form of a powder which has a surface coating of stearic or oleic acid. Extrox 5 is a grade of zinc oxide coated with stearic acid and is available from Durham Raw Materials. Its use as an ingredient of dental cement has not previously been reported. Powdered calcium hydroxide is available from ICI under the trade name Limbux but is not surface coated. Reinforcing fillers such as silica and alumina may be added as well known in the art and if desired in the case of zinc oxide compositions 15% of finely ground zinc acetate may be added as accelerator, depending on the required rate of setting instead of acetic acid being present in the second component. The zinc oxide or calcium hydroxide may also be provided in the form of a paste.But while it might be thought that any biologically acceptable non-volatile liquid would be equally effective it has been found that the liquid vehicle selected is critical in its effect on the rate of set and on the final properties of the cement. Good setting properties have been found for zinc oxide or calcium hydroxide dispersed in a long chain aliphatic acid, alcohol or ester. Again surface coated zinc oxide should be used to give the best physical properties and rapid set with the maximum amount of zinc oxide being incorporated into the paste and again an accelerator such as zinc acetate or acetic-acid may be added.
The invention further consists in a two component pack for making a dental cement as aforesaid comprising a container in which is the first component in a package further containing a container in which is the second component together with directions in, on or associated with the pack for mixing the first and second components together to form a dental cement. The first component may be a powder and a measuring scoop may be provided dispensing appropriate single amounts of the powder.
The second component may be in liquid form in a bottle with a dispensing dropper and the pack containing a glass mixing pad and an instruction leaflet. Two versions of the pack may be provided, a normal setting version and a quick setting version containing an enhanced concentration of acetic acid or other accelerator.
The invention is illustrated by the following examples: Example 1 Aluminium oxide and stearic acid coated zinc oxide were blended in the ratio 30/70 w/w.
o-ethoxybenzoic acid was melted and heated to 800 C, and 15% w/w hydrogenated rosin in powder form stirred in until fully dissolved. On cooling 1 ml of glacial acetic acid was added.
On mixing 5 g. powder to 1 ml liquid, the resulting cement set in 10 minutes at 21 OC and 5 minutes at 370C. The compressive strength was 555 MN/m2.
Example 2 Example 1 was repeated, but 0.25 ml glacial acetic acid was added to the liquid. This gave a setting time of 25 minutes at 21 OC and 10 minutes at 370C. The compressive strength was 564 MN/m2.
Example 3 Example 1 was repeated, but 0.15 ml glacial acetic acid was added to the liquid. This gave a setting time of 35 minutes at 21 OC and 14 minutes at 370C. The compressive strength was 625 MN/m2.
