title: Short-term fluoride and cations release from polyacid-modified composites in a distilled water, and an acidic lactate buffer.
abstract: Fluoride and various cations release from three commercial compomers (Dyract, Dyract AP and Compoglass-F) and a resin-modified glass ionomer (Fuji-II LC) as a control were measured up to 7 days in distilled water and 0.01M lactate buffer solution with pH 4.1. The surface morphological change before and after the release experiment was observed with a scanning electron microscopy. Fluoride, aluminum and strontium ions were released from Dyract, Dyract AP and Fuji-II LC much more in the lactate buffer than in the distilled water. With compoglass-F containing barium instead of strontium, barium was released in the same way. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed that fluoride release from Dyract and Dyract AP was derived mainly from SrF(2) contained in Dyract and Dyract AP. However, fluoride release from Compoglass-F was derived from glassy phase though it contained much fluoride as YbF(3). Cumulative release amount of each species versus square root of time plot showed good linearity, indicating that the dissolution was controlled by the diffusion mechanism. The surface characteristics of disks for each material, which were immersed in the lactate buffer, were quite different from the surface before and after immersion in deionized water, especially with Dyract. After immersion in the lactate buffer, many voids which were left after dissolution of the filler particle, were seen obviously on the surface of Dyract.
