The contact angle presents the inverse relationship with wettability (surface free energy); the lower contact angle, better wettability. Different liquids may be used for contact angle measurement. Aim The aim of this study was to compare contact angles among different calcium silicate and calcium aluminate dental cements, obtained with glycerol, citrated human blood and diiodmethane. Materials and methods We used four groups of different calcium silicate and calcium aluminate cement discs (MTA, Portland, calcium aluminate + strontium fluoride and calcium aluminate + strontium carbonate). One sessile drop (2μL) of tested liquid (glycerol, citrated human blood and diiodmethane) was gently put on the surface of the investigated specimens and photographed with microscope camera. All images were analysed with computer programe Image J with Contact angle analyser. Results The calcium aluminate + strontium fluoride showed statistically lower contact angle compared to MTA and Portland using citrated blood drop (p<0.05). Likewise, calcium aluminate + strontium carbonate revealed significantly lower contact angle compared to MTA and Portland cement. (p<0.05). On the other hand, using glycerol drop, significantly higher contact angles were recorded among calcium aluminate + strontium fluoride and both MTA and Portland (p<0.05). Eventually, diiodmethane drop showed no statistical difference in contact angle values among the materials. Discussion Wettability could be indirectly connected to surface roughness of the material. Our results showed significantly better wettability with calcium aluminate cements compared to calcium silicate based cements (MTA, Portland). These results indicate that calcium aluminate cements could possess smoother surface and lower surface free energy than MTA and Portland.
