Ion-release, dissolution and buffering by zinc phosphate dental cements
The interaction of zinc phosphate dental cement with aqueous solutions has been studied in order to elucidate the relationship between pH change and ion release (dissolution). For each storage medium (deionized water, lactic acid at pH 2.7 and lactate buffer at pH 2.2) five cylindrical specimens of zinc phosphate cement (6 mm diameter x 12 mm height) were prepared and weighed. They were stored individually in 8 cm3 of solution for a week, then the pH was determined and the specimens reweighed. The solutions were replaced and the specimens stored for a further week, then the pH and the weight were again measured. This was repeated for four weeks. For each storage solution at each time interval, the concentration of ions leached (Na, Mg, Al, Zn and P) were determined using ICP-OES. The lactate buffer was particularly erosive and reduced specimens to 4.1 % (+/- 0.9 %) of their original mass after 4 weeks. The lactic acid was also erosive, but in water, specimens showed no significant mass change after 4 weeks. In all media, Na, Al, Mg, Zn and P ions were released, with mole ratios varying at each time interval. In all cases, the pH shifted towards neutral, but the relationship between ion release and solution pH was not straightforward. From the mole ratios of ions, estimates could be made of the relative proportions of attack at matrix to attack at filler, and this showed attack at filler predominated in most solutions at most time intervals.
