In order to enhance these properties it was developed a light-cured cavity liner based calcium hydroxide containing resin. Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pH and calcium release of light-cured cavity liners. Material and method There were prepared specimens (n=10) with the Ultra-Blend ® plus, Biocal® (light cured cements) and Hydro C® (control). The samples were stored in 10 mL of distilled water and maintained at 37 °C. After 24 hours, 7, and 14 days, there were analyzed pH and the release of calcium levels. The data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test (α = 0.05). Result The results of pH showed Hydro C > Ultra-Blend plus > Biocal. Biocal presented worst calcium release. Conclusion Light-cured materials present lower calcium release and alteration in pH values.</p></div> 2018-08-15 02:42:36 Calcium hydroxide dental cavity lining dydrogen-ion concentration
