BPA has been reported to leach from some resin-based dental restorative materials and materials used for orthodontic treatment. To confirm and update previous findings, especially in light of the new temporary lower threshold value for tolerable daily BPA intake, leaching of BPA from 4 composite filling materials, 3 sealants and 2 orthodontic bonding materials were investigated.
