Study Notes
Smart Dentin Replacement (SDR)
- SDR composite material shrinks during polymerization, affecting direct composite restorations.
- Shrinkage is a primary disadvantage of composite resins.
- Bonding agents create high tension during curing, leading to cracks and weakened surfaces.
- SDR uses new materials and techniques to address these issues.
- Research aims to reduce contraction stress caused by shrinkage, preventing microcracking, interface weakening, and debonding.
Composition and Function
- SDR uses EBPADMA urethane resin, di-functional diluent, barium and strontium alumino-fluoro-silicate glass filler, initiator curing, iron oxide, and SDR (urethane dimethacrylate).
- The materials have specific functions, including structural support, crosslinking, filling, light visible color, and stress reduction.
Shrinkage Issues and Solutions
- Adhesive use: Composite shrinkage can be countered by adhesion. Adhesive attempts to counter shrinkage stress. High stress can lead to fractures.
- Stress management: Cumbersome layering and light curing techniques address stress buildup in composite structures.
- Incremental technique: Applying 2mm increments of material with adhesive avoids stress buildup. Using 2mm increments avoids problems.
SDR Application and Benefits
- SDR is applied in bulk, reducing shrinkage stress by 60% compared to other posterior restorative composites.
- A patented modulator in the formula reduces stress at tooth interfaces.
- SDR is suitable for small class I and II cavities, pit and fissure sealants, and tooth preparation.
- SDR offers simple, efficient procedures with bulk application, aesthetic results, and durable outcomes.
- Self-leveling and flow-like consistency ensures perfect adaptation, minimizing air bubbles, and enhancing application convenience.
SDR Monomer Polymerization
- Flowable SDR composite is applied incrementally (2mm) to prevent shrinkage and subsequent weakening.
- Modulators in the SDR monomer prevent shrinkage-related stresses and debonding.
- SDR can be applied in bulk up to 4mm increments.
Additional Notes
- Avoiding excessive shrinkage is key to successful composite restorations.
- Techniques like incremental layering and low viscosity materials help prevent contraction-induced damage.
- Selective etching techniques, along with adhesive application, are important.
- Proper finishing and polishing are necessary after SDR application.
- Contraction stress from shrinkage is a major factor negatively impacting composite restoration success.
