Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the effect and pattern of fluoride release of a chitosan incorporated glass ionomer cement (10v/v %) before and after application of topical fluorides. Method: Chitosan was incorporated within glass ionomer cement (10v/v %) and packed within standardised moulds. Fluoride release was estimated for a period of 21 days using ion specific electrode method. After these samples were divided into two groups, one group was recharged using 220 ppm mouthwash daily for 7 days and the other using 1000 ppm toothpaste for the same time. Fluoride release from the two groups was analysed using thge same method for 7 days. Results: The results of the present study showed that chitosan incorporated specimens released more fluoride both before and after application of topical fluoride; however the pattern of release was similar to glass ionomer cements.
