The
Effect of Heat Application on Fluoride Release from Antibacterial Agent Added
Glass Ionomer Cement

I am pleased to inform
you that I have chosen this article by Kurt et al.¹ as Editor’s
Choice for the second issue of 2019.

Glass ionomer
cements (GICs) are widely used in dental procedures and pediatric
dentistry. One of the most important advantages of GIC is the property of
fluoride release which leads to increase ambient pH and prevent acidity by
inhibiting the carbohydrate metabolism of the surrounding bacteria, resulting
in the prevention of dental caries in future.

This
article shows that the effect of heat application leads an
increased F⁻ releasing pattern on fluoride release from antibacterial agent added The
increased F⁻ releasing pattern after the heating is believed to be
promising for antibacterial GIC combinations.

Happy
readings in the second issue of 2019!
