Due to the acid stability and mineralization activity provided by silica, the monetite/ silica complex can effectively seal the dentin tubules under cyclic de-/remineralization conditions that mimic oral envioument, enabling long-term treatment of dentin hypersensitivity.
2,2,5,5-Tetramethyloxolane (TMO) and 2,5-diethyl-2,5-dimethyloxolane (DEDMO) were utilized as sustainable solvents for β-diketone extraction and its molecular self-assembly into nano-structured tubules for hydrophobic coatings.
nBGs@Pt are prepared by a modified sol–gel method and magnetron sputtering using H2O2 as fuel and are shown to have enough power to enter dentin tubules, with a blocking rate of 58.05%, after remineralization the blocking rate can reach 96.07%.
The bubble-driven SSN-Ag@Pt-GLM is loaded with silver particles, Pt power unit and bonding layer, which can automatically move into the dentin tubule and slowly release silver ions. After LED light the tubules can be completely sealed.
