The aim of this study was to assess the translucency of denture base acrylic resin reinforced with zirconium dioxide (ZrONPs), silicon dioxide (SiONPs), and diamond (DNPs) nanoparticles. A total of 130 heat-polymerized acrylic discs (15×2.5 mm) were fabricated conventionally and divided into control and experimental groups according to nanoparticle type and concentration (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2.5 wt%). Unmodified acrylic resin specimens served as control. All specimens were thermocycled (5,000 cycles). Translucency was measured using a spectrophotometer. ANOVA and post-hoc Turkeys' test were used for data analysis at α=0.05. The translucency of modified PMMA was significantly lower than control (p<0.05) except 0.5% ZrONPs and SiONPs (p>0.05) which exhibited the highest translucency values among modified groups. As the NPs concentration increased, the translucency decreased and the lowest value was seen with 2.5% DNPs (1.18±0.10). The addition of ZrONPs, SiONPs, and DNPs into denture base resin decreased the translucency.
本研究旨在评估添加氧化锆(ZrONPs)、二氧化硅(SiONPs)和金刚石(DNPs)纳米颗粒的义齿基托树脂的透光率。共制备了 130 个热聚合丙烯酸盘(15×2.5mm),根据纳米颗粒类型和浓度(0.5、1、1.5 和 2.5wt%)分为对照组和实验组。未改性的丙烯酸树脂试件作为对照组。所有试件均经过热循环(5000 次)。使用分光光度计测量透光率。采用方差分析和事后 Tukey 检验进行数据分析,α=0.05。除 0.5%ZrONPs 和 SiONPs 外(p>0.05),改性 PMMA 的透光率明显低于对照组(p<0.05),后者表现出改性组中最高的透光率。随着纳米颗粒浓度的增加,透光率降低,2.5%DNPs 的透光率最低(1.18±0.10)。ZrONPs、SiONPs 和 DNPs 添加到义齿基托树脂中降低了透光率。
