Synthesis and photopolymerizations of first monomers with phosphonate and bisphosphonate or phosphonic and bisphosphonic acid functionalities for potential dental applications.

Their copolymerization with commercial dental monomers (bisphenol A glycidyl methacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) investigated by photo-differential scanning calorimetry shows adequate photopolymerization rate and conversion. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses of M2-treated hydroxyapatite particles show formation of stable M2-calcium salts. These monomers are assessed to be not toxic according to MTT standards by in vitro cytotoxicity studies with NIH 3T3, U2OS, and Saos-2 cells. All these properties make these monomers potential candidates as biocompatible components for dental adhesives and composites.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBisphosphonic AcidDental AdhesiveHydroxyapatitePhotopolymerizationPhosphonateArticle56242739275110.1002/pola.29260Q2Q1
