ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This in vitro study assessed the effect of milk containing different fluoride concentrations on tooth erosion.METHODS:
Bovine enamel and root dentine specimens were treated with (1) bovine whole milk with 0ppm F; (2) 2.5ppm F; (3) 5ppm F; (4) 10ppm F (all after erosion); (5) whole milk with 0ppm F (before erosion); (6) NaF (0.05% F, positive control, after erosion) or (7) 0.9% NaCl (negative control, after erosion). The specimens were submitted to pH cycles (4× 90s in soft drink) and treatments for 5 days. The specimens were immersed in the treatment solutions for 1min (only at the first cycle each day) with further exposition to 11 milksaliva slurry for 10min. The tooth loss was measured using a contact profilometer and statistically analysed (p<0.05).RESULTS:
Rinsing with milk before erosive challenge significantly reduced tooth loss compared to negative control (67% and 24% reduction in dentine and enamel loss, respectively) and to milk after erosive challenge, only for dentine. The addition of fluoride to milk also reduced tooth loss compared to negative control, but with no significant differences among fluoride concentrations for enamel and dentine (µm), respectively 0ppm (3.63±0.04 and 2.51±0.53), 2.5ppm F (2.86±0.42 and 1.96±0.47), 5ppm F (2.81±0.27 and 1.77±0.44), 10ppm F (2.03±0.49 and 1.68±0.59). There was a negative and significant correlation between [F] and the tooth loss.CONCLUSIONS:
Daily rinse with milk containing F is able to reduce both enamel and dentine erosion in vitro. CLINICALSIGNIFICANCE:
Since the prevalence of dental erosion is steadily increasing, rinse with milk or its derivate might be an important strategy to reduce the progression of tooth erosion.Palavras-chave
