ABSTRACT

Fluoride releasing materials prevent secondary caries because of stable dimensional property. Today, there are several fluoride-containing dental restoratives available in the market including Glass-ionomer cement, resin modified Glass-ionomer cement, Polyacid-modified composites (composers), composites and amalgams. Due to their different matrices and setting mechanisms the product varies in their ability to release fluoride. Fluoride ions on enamel caries - acrylic resin, acrylic restorative products were developed. The aim of this research is to provide knowledge and to present short review of recent literature available on various fluoride releasing dental materials. A detailed study was done by reviewing several literatures on various fluoride releasing materials. Thorough search of articles was carried out on the database like google scholar and pubmed. All Fluoride containing materials release fluoride in an initial burst and reduce exponentially. Caries inhibition and remineralisation potential have been shown. Fluoride release and uptake characteristics depend on the matrices, fillers and fluoride content as well as on the setting mechanism and environmental conditions. Fluoride releasing materials, predominantly glass-ionomers and composite have shown cariostatic properties. Keywords: Cariostatic, fluoride-release, glass ionomer, remineralization
