Abstract :
Background: The development of dental material restoration is regarded to be relevant to obtain a better bonding between dental structure and restorative materials. Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a bioactive material. Resin-modified GIC (RMGIC) is an alternative to the conventional glass ionomer. Nowadays with nano technology, this material is available in nano particle glass ionomer form in order to enhance the bond strength between tooth structure and restoration. The use of the natural product in dentistry such as chitosan has increased widely. Chitosan is one of the natural materials that used to improve the bioactivity of the glass ionomer. Studies showed that addition of chitosan high molecule to GIC can increase mechanical performance and capability and also as a catalyst to release fluoride ions. Purpose: This study was aimed to examine the effect of the addition of high molecular nanoparticle chitosan derived from horseshoe crab (Tachypleus gigas) in RMGIC and nano RMGIC to the dentin surface. Methods: Nano particle chitosan was added to the restorative materials and then applied to the class I cavity of premolar and then the tooth was sectioned with diamond disc. Specimens were prepared for SEM examination. Results: The result showed that the addition of chitosan increases adhesion between restoration and dentin structure. Conclusion: the addition of nanoparticle chitosan with a high molecular weight of 0.015% into various of glass ionomer can improve the adhesion of restorative material to dentin structure.
