Abstract

Liquid crystalline (meth)acrylates of the invention include at least three rigid rod-like moieties. One of these moieties is comprised between the (meth)acrylate rests and further two moieties are bonded as side chains. The liquid crystalline (meth)acrylates polymerizable using redox initiators and/or photo intiators. The (meth)acrylates of the invention polymerize quantitative and with very low volume shrinkage of less than 2.5 percent. The invention provides a polymerizable compound within the scope of general formula (I). These compounds are used in dental compositions and methods of use thereof.

Description

Liqufd crystalline (meth)acrylate Compounds, Composition and Method This is a continuation-in-part of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 08/543,950 filed October 17, 1995 (Case 1865).
The invention relates to liquid crystalline (meth)acrylates suitable for dental and medical applications, as well as for optical, electrooptical application such as in liquid-crystal displays. The invention provides (meth)acrylate compounds which are liquid below 50 ~ C, and are useful in compositions for treating natural teeth, such as dental restorative, cement, adhesive, primer, sealant and root canal filling compositions. The invention provides dental cement compositions and methods of using them for binding hard tooth material, metal and ceramic. The cement compositions include polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomers. The cements have superior adhesion to tooth without separately acid etching dentin or enamel. Compositions of the invention are useful as dental cements, liners, bases and restoratives. Compositions of the invention include less reactive diluent than prior art compositions. Compositions of the invention polymerize to form polymeric material having low or no residual monomer, preferably less than 1 percent residual monomer.

Mixtures of (meth)acrylates comprising liquid crystalline monomers, dimethacrylates (2,2-Bis-[p-(2-hydroxy-3-W O 97/14674 PCT~US96/16436 methacryloyloxypropoxy)-phenyl]-propane) and di(meth) acrylates comprising liquid crystalline monomers are described in EP 0379058.
However, the known liquid crystalline mono- or difunctional molecules have melting temperatures and liquid crystalline behavior at temperatures above 50~C (Table 1 below, page 25). An application of these molecules in the liquid crystalline phase require temperatures over their melting temperature (50 to 170~C). An application at room temperature is oniy possible in the solid state or in solution.
In accordance with the invention monomers are provided which are liquid at room temperature and which show liquid crystalline behavior at least between 20 and 40~C. These liquid crystalline monomers are useful in dentistry, medicine, microelectronics and optoelectronics.

CN CN g The compositions of the invention are formulated as one, two or more components, UV curable, visible light curable, self cure, and/or dual cure product or combinations of these. The composition of a preferred embodiment of the invention includes polymerizable carboxylic acid monomer, an optional filler and/or diluent, a cationic elutable glass or other source of polyvalent cations, and a polymerization catalyst system.
Fillers which are suited for use in compositions of the invention are organic and/or inorganic particles, for example inorganic glasses such as are used in glass ionomer cements. Exemplary of such fillers are those of U.S. Patent 4,814,362 which is incorporated herein by ~ reference in its entiret,v. Preferred fillers are glasses formed from or including, barium, calcium, strontium, lanthanum, tantalum, and/or tungsten silicates and aluminates and/or aluminosilicates, silica, including submicron silica, quartz, and/or ceramics for example, calcium hydroxy apatite. In a preferred embodiment of the invention , reactive cations, especi~lly those of calcium, strontium and aluminium, and anions especially fluoride ions; are eluted from the fillers. The fillers used in the invention preferably are reduced in particle size and are preferably silanated before they are incorporated into such compositions. Preferred levels of filler are from about 20% to about 85% based on the total weight of the composition, with from about 40% to ablout 85% being more preferable and about 50-80% being most preferred. If a more finely particulated filler is used, amounts of filler may be decreased due to the relative increase in surface area which attends the smaller sizes of particles. Preferred particle size distributions are from 0.02 to 50 microns, more preferably 0.1 to 10 microns, and most preferably 1 to 6 microns.
Mixing the compositions of the present invention may be achieved using standard compounding techniques. For example, liquids, photoinitial:or(s), and accelerator(s) are blended first, and fillers are added incrementally thereafter. When blending light sensitive compositions, however, a photosafe room illumination, i.e., one that does not contain substantial amounts of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation that would activate the photoinitiating system is used to avoid initiating polymerization of the composition prematurely.
The compounds of the present invention also have medical applications such as in self adhesive bone cements. However, they are most preferred to use in dental treatment by application to a tooth or a number of teeth in vivo, in the mouth of a live patient by a dentist or dental practitioner.

These cements are used in bonding dentin to structures, for example, to bond a ceramic inlay to a prepared cavity of a tooth. Inlays preferably are polymers, or ceramics which are cast or built-up from porcelain frits and fired.
Alternatively, inlays are machined from metal such as titanium or gold or performed polymeric composite or homogeneous monolithic polymer compositions, for example by CAD-CAM procedures.

The two parts are spatuled to form a cement prior to placement on tooth. The placement is by standard technique(s). Preferably the cement includes a visible light and/or a self-curing redox polymerization initiator system. In a preferred embodiment of the invention luting cement compositions have low viscosity and film thicknesses less than about 25 llm to bond close fitting appliances to prepared teeth. In one embodiment luting cement compositions of the present invention may be prepared of such hig viscosity and consistency that they form adhesive "glue" lines of thicknesses up to several hundred microns to lute less close fitting restorations, for example inlays prepared using present state-of-the-art CAD-CAM devices. Compositions of the invention are mechanically strong, abrasion resistant, and are esthetically suitable and serve as the sole structural element to retain inlay, crowns and bridges or other appliances lto tooth structure.
A preferred dental treatment in accordance with the invention is the application of dental filling compositions which include an initiator and at least one compound within the scope of general formula 1.
Preferably the dental filling composition includes finely divided filler.
