Materials and methods: 3T3 mouse fibroblasts were exposed to three cured and uncured orthodontic resins. Cellular viability was assessed by Alamar Blue assay after 24, 48 and 72 h. High Performance Liquid Chromatography was used to measure the amount of monomers released by the tested samples. Data were analyzed by means of ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p}, journal = {Current Research in Dentistry}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
