Efforts to apply the adhesive properties of mussel proteins to the biomedical field have been performed for a long time, and positive results have also been reported. Therefore, it is expected that the adhesive ability of the catechol group will give excellent physical properties to restorative dental materials. We have devised an oligomer that incorporates catechol into the conventional dental material. Bisphenol A glycidylmethacrylate (BisGMA) has been used for restorative materials because of many advantages such as higher mechanical property, low volatility, low polymerization shrinkage. In this study, protocatechuate-BisGMA (PCA-BG) was synthesized by reacting BisGMA and protocatechuic acid (PCA) containing catechol group, and evaluated its compressive and flexural strengths after it was fabricated by 3D printing using DLP method. |
