摘要:
In a first aspect, a method for treating hard tissue that includes: (a) applying to hard tissue a composition that includes a cationically active functional group, a free radically active functional group, and a polymerization initiator capable of initiating free radical polymerization, where the number of moles of cationically active functional groups per gram of composition is no greater than about 0.0075; and (b) exposing the composition to polymerization conditions to form an adhesive bonded to the hard tissue.In a second aspect, a method for treating hard tissue that includes: (a) applying to hard tissue a first polymerizable composition that includes a free radically active functional group and a polymerization initiator capable of initiating free radical polymerization, but is essentially free of polymerizable components having cationically active functional groups and is capable of forming an adhesive bonded to the hard tissue upon exposure to polymerization conditions; (b) applying a second polymerizable composition; and (c) exposing the second composition to polymerization conditions to form a hardened composition adhered to the hard tissue. The second composition includes (i) a cationically active functional group and (ii) an polymerization initiator capable of initiating cationic polymerization.

摘要:
Dental compositions are described comprising an addition-fragmentation agent comprising at least one ethylenically unsaturated terminal group and a backbone unit comprising an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl; at least one monomer comprising at least two ethylenically unsaturated group; and inorganic oxide filler. The addition-fragmentation agent is preferably free-radically cleavable. The addition-fragmentation agent preferably comprises at least two ethylenically unsaturated terminal groups, such as (meth)acTylate groups. In some embodiments, the addition-fragmentation agent has the formula: wherein R1, R2 and R3 are each independently Zm, -Q-, a (hetero)alkyl group or a (hetero)aryl group with the proviso that at least one of R1, R2 and R3 is Zm-Q-; Q is a linking group have a valence of m+1; Z is an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable group; m is 1 to 6; each X1 is independently —O— or —NR4—, where R4 is H or C1-C4 alkyl; and n is 0 or 1. Also described are dental articles prepared from a dental composition comprising an addition-fragmentation agent and methods of treating a tooth surface.
