Article Synopsis
- This study investigated how adding zinc oxide and magnesium oxide nanoparticles to resin infiltrant affects microleakage in artificially induced carious lesions on bovine teeth.
- Various groups were tested, with results showing that standard resin infiltrant completely prevented microleakage, while modified versions with nanoparticles also performed well but with some variation in effectiveness.
- Significant differences were noted between the untreated carious lesions and the groups treated with resin infiltrant or its nanoparticle-modified versions, highlighting the effectiveness of the treatments.
