Objectives: To characterise the ion release, pH changes and apatite formation of a phosphate free bioactive glass.
Methods: A SiO-CaO-CaF-NaO glass was synthesized by a melt route with a composition close to the reactive glass in the commercial Cention N® composite. The glass was characterized after immersion in three media: Artificial Saliva pH4 (AS4) Artificial Saliva pH7 (AS7) and in a high phosphate artificial saliva at pH6.
