Calcium ion-releasing ability of different calcium hydroxide-based pulp capping materials was comparatively evaluated in this study. Different brands of cements were taken from different manufacturers and categorized into three groups. Three different brands of Ca(OH) cements (Dycal, TheraCal, and Cal LC) were taken prepared by mixing and curing the cements as per the manufacturer's instructions. Consequently, ion release was measured after 7, 14, and 21 days by argon-based induction coupled plasma mass spectroscopy test. Within the limitations of this study, light-cured Ca(OH) cements released a higher amount of calcium ions compared with self-cured Ca(OH) cements. Theracal was found to be the highest light-cured calcium ion releasing materials throughout the period of 21 days. In conclusion, further clinical studies are warranted to substantiate the findings of this study.
本研究比较了不同氢氧化钙类盖髓材料的钙离子释放能力。从不同制造商处选取了不同品牌的水泥，并将其分为三组。取三种不同品牌的 Ca(OH) 水泥（Dycal、TheraCal 和 Cal LC），按照制造商的说明进行混合和固化。随后，通过基于氩的感应耦合等离子体质谱测试在第 7、14 和 21 天测量离子释放。在本研究的限制内，光固化 Ca(OH) 水泥释放的钙离子量高于自固化 Ca(OH) 水泥。TheraCal 在整个 21 天的时间里是释放钙离子最多的光固化材料。总之，需要进一步的临床研究来证实本研究的结果。
