The manuscript aimed to review the types of acrylate polymers used in dentistry, as well as
their chemical, physical, mechanical, and biological properties. Regarding their consistency …

The use of methacrylic acid (MAA) in medicine was poorly investigated in the past but can
be of great importance because the incorporation of hydroxyapatite (HA) can lead to new …

Background/purpose The residual monomer remaining in acrylic resin can cause an allergic
reaction and is toxic to oral soft tissue. This study determined the effect of the duration of …

Critical-sized bone defects can be repaired by using bone tissue engineering (BTE)
procedures which rely on the combined use of cells, scaffolds and biologically active …

Acrylic restorations in the mouth are exposed to strong occlusal forces. Their mechanical
properties depend on the type and method of their polymerization. The aim of this study is a …

The latest development in the field of smart hydrogels application as drugs carriers is shown
in this chapter. Hydrogels are three-dimensional polymer network consisting of at least one …

Restoring the morpho-functional capacity of destroyed and compensations of lost teeth
present a challenge for the synthesis of new more effective materials and the improvement …

96This chapter provides an overview of the drug delivery systems, DDS, based on natural
