Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of contemporary esthetic restorative materials on pulpal cells and mucosal cells of oral cavity

Objectives: The most important requirement for the materials to be used in medical applications is its biocompatibility. Dental composite materials come into close contact with oral tissues, especially with gingival cells. Due to this close and long-term contact, the materials should exhibit a high degree of biocompatibility. The aim of this doctoral thesis was to certify that the modern composite…
