Biological properties of experimental dental alginate modified for self-disinfection using green nanotechnology
Clinical Oral Investigations(2023)
Abstract
Disinfection of alginate impression materials is a mandatory step to prevent cross-infection in dental clinics. However, alginate disinfection methods are time-consuming and exert a negative impact on accuracy and mechanical properties. Thus, this study aimed to prepare disinfecting agents (CHX and AgNO3) and silver nanoparticles reduced by a natural plant extract to produce a self-disinfecting dental alginate. Conventional alginate impression material was used in this study. Silver nitrate (0.2
