ABSTRACT

Aim:

To evaluate the biological and mechanical properties of an adhesive with nanostructured silver vanadate (AgVO3). Materials &

methods:

Specimens in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were treated with Ultra Corega Cream (UCCA) denture adhesive with or without AgVO3. Biofilms of Candida albicans, Candida glabrata and Streptococcus mutans were grown and the viable cells counted. Fluorescence microscopy was used. The viability of the VERO cell and adhesive strength were evaluated.

Results:

All concentrations of AgVO3 reduced the biofilm formation and showed no cytotoxic effect. At 5 min and 24 h, UCCA with 5 and 10% AgVO3 showed better performance, respectively.

Conclusion:

AgVO3 promoted the antibiofilm activity of the adhesive, with a positive effect on the adhesive strength, and was biocompatible.
What is this summary about? Some people wear false teeth called dentures. They use a special glue to keep these false teeth in their mouths. It is important to clean dentures well and remove the glue every day. If the dentures get dirty, they can cause infections of the gums. Doctors and dentists can help, but sometimes medicines do not work well. This study checked to see whether adding a medicine that can kill bacteria into the glue could stop gum swelling and other illnesses, or make them better.What were the results? The glue containing the medicine killed microbes like fungi and bacteria. It also stuck things together well and was safe to use.What do the results mean? Using this special glue could help people with dentures to avoid illness.
