Abstract

The present invention relates to a dental composition which is a resin modified dental cement composition, comprising a radically polymerizable compound and a redox initiator system comprising one or more clathrate compounds comprising a host molecule and one or more guest molecules, wherein the guest molecule is an oxidising agent selected from organic peroxides and organic hydroperoxides. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a use of the redox initiator system in a dental composition which is a resin modified dental cement composition.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A dental composition which is a resin modified dental cement composition, comprising
(i) a radically polymerizable compound; and
(ii) a redox initiator system comprising
(a) one or more clathrate compounds comprising
(a1) a host molecule and
(a2) one or more guest molecules,
wherein the host molecule is selected from cyclodextrines, crown ethers, cucurbituriles and calixarenes, and the one or more guest molecules are oxidising agents selected from organic peroxides and organic hydroperoxides; and

(b) one or more reducing agent selected from sodium thiosulfite and the group of organic reducing agents consisting of benzoyl thiourea, ascorbic acid, L-cystein, thiobarbituric acid, alkyl- or alkoxy-alkyl boranes, or derivatives of these organic reducing agents, which reducing agent may be supported on a carrier.

2. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the peroxide or hydroperoxide is a liquid at room temperature.

3. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the organic peroxide or hydroperoxide is cumyl hydroperoxide, tert-butyl peroxybenzoate, tert-butylperoxy (2-ethylhexyl)carbonate, tert-butylhydroperoxide, di(tert-butyl)peroxide, or tert-butylperoxy-3,5,5-trimethyl-hexanoate.

4. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the cyclodextrin is a natural non-reduced oligo-saccharide in which glucose is linked in a cyclic form through α-1,4-linkage.

5. The dental composition according to claim 4 , wherein the natural cyclodextrin contains 5 to 8 glucose moieties.

6. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the guest molecule:the host molecule is in a range of from 1:0.5 to 1:2.

7. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the dental composition is a one-pack or a two-pack dental composition.

8. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the dental composition has a working time of at least 2 and less than 4 minutes at 23° C.

9. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the dental composition has a setting time of 2 to 6 minutes at 37° C.

10. The dental composition according to claim 1 , wherein the redox initiator system including the one or more clathrate compounds and the reducing agent are stored as a mixture in a single pack.

11. A redox initiator system comprising
(a) one or more clathrate compounds comprising a host molecule and one or more guest molecules, wherein the host molecule is selected from cyclodextrines, crown ethers, cucurbituriles and calixarenes, and the one or more guest molecules are oxidising agents selected from organic peroxides and an organic hydroperoxides; and
(b) one or more reducing agent selected from sodium thiosulfite and the group of organic reducing agents consisting of benzoyl thiourea, ascorbic acid, L-cystein, thiobarbituric acid, alkyl- or alkoxy-alkyl boranes, or derivatives of these organic reducing agents, which reducing agent may be supported on a carrier.
