Centre for Biomaterials & Tissue Engineering School of Clinical Dentistry, University of Sheffield Claremont Crescent, Sheffield S10 2TA, UK.
Introduction: Since their invention in the late 1960s, glass ionomer cements (GICs) have been used extensively in dentistry but recently they have also been utilised in ear nose and throat (ENT) surgery. Unfortunately, Al3+, a component of conventional ionomer glasses, has been linked to poor bone mineralisation and neurotoxicity.
Objective: The aim of the research was to modify a commercial ionomer glass composition by substituting Al2O3 with Fe2O3.
