A study has been made of the rise in temperature associated with the setting of dental cements. Results are discussed in terms of the chemistry of the cement systems and are related to specification testing and clinical usage. Zinc oxide cements evolve more heat than those based on ion-leachable glasses, and phosphate bonded cements evolve more heat than polycarboxylate cements.
