Toxicology and Allergology of Dental Plastic Materials
Dental materials should not only look good and last a long time, they should also be well tolerated. Questions about their toxicology / biocompatibility have raised a growing interest. Monomer and comonomer compounds are used in dental medicine, e.g. in composites and dentine adhesives. It is possible for such compounds to be released from these materials and end up in the human body through resorption.
