Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) bound to dentin contribute to the progressive degradation of collagen fibrils in hybrid layers created by dentin adhesives. This study evaluated the MMP-inhibiting potential of quaternary ammonium methacrylates (QAMs), with soluble rhMMP-9 and a matrix-bound endogenous MMP model. Six different QAMs were initially screened by a rhMMP-9 colorimetric assay. For the matrix-bound endogenous MMPs, we aged demineralized dentin beams for 30 days in calcium-and zinc-containing media (CM; control), chlorhexidine, or QAMs in CM to determine the changes in dry mass loss and solubilization of collagen peptides against baseline levels. The inhibitory effects of QAMs on soluble rhMMP-9 varied between 34 and 100%. Beams incubated in CM showed a 29% decrease in dry mass (p < 0.05), whereas beams incubated with QAMs showed only 0.2%-6% loss of dry mass. Significantly more solubilized collagen was detected from beams incubated in CM (p < 0.05). It is concluded that QAMs exhibited dentin MMP inhibition comparable with that of chlorhexidine, but required higher concentrations.
