RESUMO
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate if there is a dose-response relationship between toothpaste chemically soluble fluoride absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and fluoride secreted by saliva, giving support to the use of saliva as surrogate for plasma fluoride. Methods: A 4-phase single blind study was conducted, in which 10 participants were subjected in each phase to one of the assigned treatment groups: group I: fresh sample of a Na2FPO3/CaCO3-based toothpaste with 1,334 µg F/g of total soluble fluoride (TSF) and groups IIIV: aged samples of this toothpaste presenting TSF concentrations of 1,128, 808, and 687 µg F/g, respectively. In all phases, the participants ingested an amount of toothpaste equivalent to 70.0 µg F/Kg body weight, as total fluoride (TF). Saliva and blood samples were collected before (baseline) and up to 180 min after toothpaste ingestion as indicator of fluoride bioavailability. F concentration in saliva and blood plasma was determined with a fluoride ion-specific electrode. The areas under the curve (AUC) of F concentration versus time (AUC = ng F/mL × min) and the peaks of fluoride concentration (Cmax) in saliva and plasma were calculated. Results: A significant correlation between mg of TSF ingested and the AUC (r=0.47; p<0.01), and Cmax (r=0.59; p<0.01) in saliva was found; for TF, the correlation was not significant (p>0.05). In addition, the correlations between plasma and saliva fluoride concentrations were statistically significant for AUC (r=0.55; p<0.01) as for Cmax (r=0.68; p<0.01). Conclusion: The findings support that saliva can be used as a systemic biomarker of bioavailable fluoride present in Na2FPO3/CaCO3-based toothpaste

Objective: The aim of this was to determine the geographical barriers for the use of equal or more than 1000 (≥1000) parts per million (ppm) of toothpaste with fluorine (F) in children aged 1 to 11 years in Peru in 2018. Material and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, the database of Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES, for its Spanish acronym) of Peru in 2018 was used; the final sample was 25660 records of children between 1 and 11 years old. The variables evaluated were the use of ≥1000 ppm fluoride toothpaste, place of residence, natural region, area of residence, region, wealth index, access to dental service, whether information was received about oral hygiene, daily tooth brushing, age and sex. A descriptive, bivariate (Chi square) and multivariate (log-linear Poisson regression) analysis was performed. Results: An association was found between the use of toothpaste ≥1000 ppm F with place of residence: small city vs capital-large city with an adjusted prevalence ratio (RPa): 0.94; 95% confidence interval (95% IC): 0.90-0.98, town and country vs. capital-large city both with an RPa: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.91-0.99. With natural region: rest of the Coast vs Lima with RPa: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.91-0.98, Sierra vs Lima with RPa: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.92-0.99 and Jungle vs Lima with RPa: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.90-0.98). Conclusion: The place of residence and the natural region are geographic barriers to the use ≥1000 ppm fluoride toothpaste in children aged between 1 and 11 years in Peru in 2018.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the remineralizing potential of a hydrocolloid-based, controlled fluoride-releasing system added to dentifrice formulas. Material and Methods: Sixty-five human enamel blocks were prepared and the surface microhardness (SH0) values were determined. The artificial caries lesions were induced and the demineralization surface microhardness (SH1) was evaluated. The blocks were randomly allocated into five groups (n = 13): (1) 100-TGF (100% NaF with Tara gum added); (2) 50-TGF (50% free NaF + 50% NaF with Tara gum added); (3) 100% TG (100% Tara gum without fluoride); (4) 100% NaF (positive control); and (5) placebo (without Tara gum and NaF). The blocks were submitted to 7 days pH cycling and treated with dentifrice slurries twice a day. Finally, surface hardness (SH2) was assessed and the percentage of surface hardness recovery (%SMHR) was calculated. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Bonferroni test was used for statistical analysis. Results: A positive %SMHR was found in the 100% NaF (5.07) and 50-TGF (0.64) groups, while the 100-TGF (-1.38), 100% TG (-3.88) and placebo (-0.52) did not undergo remineralization. Statistically significant differences were observed between 100% NaF and all the groups except for 50-TGF (p<0.05). Conclusion: The presence of hydrocolloid (Tara gum) promoted minimal remineralization when associated with NaF. In the applied model, Tara gum may have compromised remineralization, preventing free fluoride from acting effectively in the carious lesion.

RESUMEN Introducción: Durante la gestación, algunos cambios fisiológicos en la mujer propician un incremento de la placa dental y de la microbiota cariogénica. Esta condición unida a una modificación de la dieta y a una inadecuada higiene bucal condicionarían desfavorablemente la salud oral tanto de la madre como del bebé. Objetivo: Determinar el efecto antibacteriano de una pasta dental con xilitol sobre el recuento de Streptococcus mutans en saliva de gestantes. Métodos: Ensayo clínico, a doble ciego, que se realizó en el Centro de Salud "José Olaya" (Chiclayo Perú), en enero de 2017. Se trabajó con una población muestral de 50 gestantes en el segundo trimestre que cumplieron con los criterios establecidos. Se crearon dos grupos: 25 gestantes usaron dentífrico con 10 por ciento de xilitol y 25 gestantes usaron dentífrico sin xilitol. Se les tomó y proceso microbiológicamente una muestra de saliva antes del inicio del estudio y 14 días después del uso de las respectivas pastas. Se realizó el recuento de unidades formadoras de colonias de Streptococcus mutans en saliva con una confiabilidad altamente significativa mediante el coeficiente de correlación intraclase, calibración intra e interexaminador (1,000 y 0,999, respectivamente). El análisis de los datos se realizó mediante la prueba U de Mann-Whitney, considerando un nivel de significancia del 5 por ciento. Resultados: No se encontró diferencia significativa entre las gestantes que emplearon pasta dental con xilitol en comparación con las que utilizaron pasta dental sin xilitol (p= 0,062). Conclusiones: El efecto antibacteriano de la pasta dental comercial con xilitol es similar a una pasta dental sin xilitol sobre el recuento de Streptococcus mutans en saliva de gestantes(AU)
ABSTRACT Introduction: Some physiological changes occur in women during pregnancy which cause an increase in dental plaque and cariogenic microbiota. This situation, alongside a modification in the diet and inadequate oral hygiene, negatively affect the oral health of both the mother and the baby. Objective: Determine the antibacterial effect of a toothpaste with xylitol on the count of Streptococcus mutans in pregnant women's saliva. Methods: A double-blind clinical trial was conducted in José Olaya Health Center (Chiclayo, Peru) in January 2017. The sample population was 50 women in the second trimester of pregnancy who met the established inclusion criteria. Two groups were formed: 25 pregnant women used a toothpaste with 10 percent xylitol and the other 25 used a toothpaste without xylitol. A saliva sample was taken and processed microbiologically before the start of the study and 14 days after use of the two toothpastes. A count was performed of colony-forming units for Streptococcus mutans in saliva with highly significant reliability, using the intraclass correlation coefficient, and intra- and inter-rater calibration (1.000 and 0.999, respectively). Data analysis was based on the Mann-Whitney U Test, with a significance level of 5 percent. Results: No significant difference was found between the pregnant women who used the toothpaste with xylitol and those who used the toothpaste without xylitol (p= 0.062). Conclusions: The antibacterial effect of the commercial toothpaste with xylitol is similar to that of a toothpaste without xylitol in terms of the Streptococcus mutans count in pregnant women's saliva(AU)

OBJECTIVES: The present study addresses the effect of fluoride and sodium lauryl sulphate content of toothpaste on oral epithelial cells in vivo conditions. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: Forty volunteers were assigned into two experimental groups, each of them applying the different brand of toothpaste. Every group has been using three different types of toothpaste (non-fluoride and non-SLS, fluoride and non-SLS, and the fluoride and SLS) of the same brand for 6 months, each for 2 months. The buccal epithelial cells were sampled at baseline and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days after the beginning of the research. Effect on DNA damage was analyzed by micronucleus assay Results: After 60 days of use, for both tested kinds of toothpaste with fluoride and without SLS, all studied parameters were not significantly different from the results obtained at the time when the participants used a non-fluoride toothpaste. While, after 60 days of use, for one kind of toothpaste with SLS and fluoride, was observed significantly higher incidence of pyknotic cells (2.20 ± 0.95, 0.00 ± 0.00 vs. 0.05 ± 0.22, respectively; p = .001), cells with karyorrhexis (2.35 ± 1.14, 0.85 ± 0.93 vs. 0.40 ± 0.68, respectively; p = .001), and nuclear buds (1.35 ± 0.68, 0.45 ± 0.51 vs. 0.45 ± 0.60, respectively; p = .001), compared to toothpastes of the same brand with fluoride and without SLS, and without fluoride and without SLS, for the same period. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results, can be concluded that there is no fluorine-dependent cytotoxic or genotoxic effect, while SLS dentifrice increases the number of nuclear morphological changes in buccal epithelial cells.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate possible DNA damages to oral epithelial cells exposed to whitening kinds of toothpaste considering the effect of conventional non-whitening toothpaste. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty volunteers were assigned into three experimental groups, each of them using a different regular toothpaste for the initial 2 months, followed by the use of whitening kind of toothpaste of the same brand for next 2 months. The oral epithelial cells were sampled prior and 30, 60, 90 and 120 days after the beginning of the use of tested kinds of toothpaste. Chromosomal damages were analyzed by micronucleus assay. RESULTS: For just one kind of tested whitening toothpaste was observed the significant increase in the number of micronucleated cells after 60 days of use compared values obtained 60 days of usage of conventional non-whitening toothpaste (6.35 ± 3.67 and 2.8 ± 1.91; p < .05). There was no statistically significant difference in other micronucleus assay endpoints between tested types of toothpaste at either of the sampling times during the period of toothpaste application. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results, it can be concluded that the use of certain whitening kinds of toothpaste may cause a limited biologically insignificant genotoxic effect on buccal epithelial cells.

OBJECTIVE: This in situ study evaluated the effect of the association of low-F (4500µg F/g) gel containing TMP and FT (1100µg F/g) on enamel demineralization. METHODS: This crossover and double-blind study consisted of five phases of seven days each. Volunteers (n=12) wore palatal appliances containing four enamel blocks. The cariogenic challenge was performed with 30% sucrose solution (six times/day). Treatments were: placebo toothpaste (PT, no fluoride/TMP); 1100µg F/g toothpaste (FT); FT+4500µg F/g+5%TMP gel (FT+TMP gel); FT+9000µg F/g gel (FT+9000 gel) and FT+12,300µg F/g (FT+Acid gel). After topical application of treatments for one min, two blocks were removed for analysis of loosely bound fluoride (CaF2), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P) and firmly bound fluoride (FA) formed in enamel. After the seven-day experimental periods, the percentage of surface hardness loss (%SH), integrated subsurface hardness loss (ΔKHN), CaF2, Ca, P and FA retained were determined. Moreover, the biofilms formed on the blocks were analyzed for F, Ca, P and insoluble extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) concentrations. RESULTS: FT+TMP gel promoted the lowest%SH and ΔKHN (p<0.001). The highest concentration of CaF2 formed was observed for the FT+Acid gel (p<0.001), followed by FT+9000 gel > FT+TMP gel > FT > PT. CaF2 retained on the blocks was reduced across all groups (p<0.001). Similar values were observed for the Ca/P/F and EPS in enamel and biofilm for all fluoride groups. CONCLUSION: The association of FT+TMP gel significantly reduced enamel demineralization in situ. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The association of treatments may be an alternative for patients with high caries risk.

This study analyzed the anti-erosive effect of a self-assembling peptide fibre gel. One hundred and twelve bovine enamel samples were ground flat and subjected to a three times de- and re-mineralization cycle: erosion (5 min, HCl, pH 2.6) alternated with storage in artificial saliva under agitation. Then, samples were covered with different anti-erosive compounds (2 min): Duraphat toothpaste (DT), Elmex Erosion Protection Toothpaste (EET) or Elmex Gelée (EG) all mixed with saliva (1:3) , Elmex Erosion Protection Mouthwash (EEM), Curodont Protect (CP; self-assembling peptide gel) or MI Paste Plus (MIP). Untreated, water stored samples served as control. In experiment 1, half of the samples of each group were continuously superfused with HCl (pH 2.6, 60 µl/min, 8 min). In experiment 2, the second half of samples were subjected to eight cycles, each consisting of application of the respective anti-erosive compound followed by an erosion (60 s, HCl, pH 2.6), followed by remineralization in artificial saliva (45 min). Enamel loss was profilometrically determined. In experiment 1, EEM and EET performed significantly better compared to all other compounds. Substance loss of all other compounds did not differ significantly from control. In experiment 2, significantly better performance was achieved by EEM and EET. EG showed significantly lower protection than the control. All other applied compounds yielded no significant difference compared to control. Under the chosen conditions, the self-assembling peptide-containing compound showed no anti-erosive effect.

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of an extended use of desensitizing toothpastes (DTs) on dentin bonding, microhardness and roughness. One hundred and twenty bovine incisor teeth were randomly divided into four groups: G1, distilled water (WATER); G2, Colgate Total 12 (CT12); G3, Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief (CSPR); and G4, Sensodyne Repair ?αμπ; Protect (SRP). Dentin surfaces were etched with 17% EDTA and 2 years of simulated tooth brushing (20,000 cycles) was performed on their surfaces. Knoop microhardness, surface roughness and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed before and after the simulated tooth brushing. For microshear bonding test, a 2-step self-etching adhesive system (Clearfil SE Bond) was used and 0.8 mm diameter composite resin (Filtek Z350 XT) cylinders were built. Microshear test was performed with an orthodontic wire and with a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The data were analyzed for: 1) bond strength (one-way ANOVA), 2) microhardness intra-group (Student's test) and inter-group (one-way ANOVA/Tukey's test) comparisons, 3) roughness intra-group (Student's test/Wilcoxon's test) and inter-group (Kruskal-Wallis/Student-Newman-Keuls test) comparisons. The extended use of both dentifrices (conventional and for sensitive teeth) did not affect the bond strength and produced a significant increase in microhardness and roughness of the dentin, except for the microhardness of the SRP group. The simulated tooth brushing technique with water produced an increase in roughness, without reducing significantly the dentin microhardness.
Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a influência do uso prolongado de dentifrícios dessensibilizantes (DTs) na adesão, microdureza e rugosidade da dentina. Cento e vinte dentes incisivos bovinos foram divididos aleatoriamente em quatro grupos: G1, água destilada (WATER); G2, Colgate Total 12 (CT12); G3, Colgate Sensitive Pro-alívio (CSPR); e G4, Sensodyne Repair ?αμπ; Protect (SRP). As superfícies dentinárias foram condicionadas com EDTA a 17% e foram realizados 2 anos de escovação dental simulada (20.000 ciclos) em suas superfícies. A microdureza Knoop, rugosidade de superfície e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) foram realizadas antes e após escovação dental simulada. Para o teste de adesão por microcisalhamento, foi aplicado um sistema adesivo auto condicionante de 2 passos (Clearfil SE Bond) e foram construídos cilindros de resina composta (Filtek Z350 XT) de 0,8 mm de diâmetro. O teste de microcisalhamento foi realizado com um fio ortodôntico e com velocidade de 0,5mm/min. Os dados foram analisados para: 1) resistência de união (ANOVA 1 fator), 2) comparações de microdureza intra grupo (teste t de Student) e inter grupo (ANOVA 1 fator / teste de Tukey), 3) comparações de rugosidade intra grupo (teste t de Student / teste de Wilcoxon) e inter grupo (Kruskal Wallis / teste de Student-Newman-Keuls). O uso prolongado de ambos dentifrícios (convencional e para dentes sensíveis) não interferiu na resistência de união e produziu um aumento significativo na microdureza e rugosidade da dentina, exceto para a microdureza do grupo SRP. A técnica de escovação dental simulada com água promoveu aumento na rugosidade, sem reduzir significativamente a microdureza da dentina.

The objective of the study is to propose a protocol for the appropriate use of fluorides in dentifrices (Dt), based on its bioavailability in saliva (Bs) and / or plaque (Bp) through a systematic review (SR). SR of the literature from 2005 to 2015 in PubMed, Cochrane and SciELO. Inclusion criteria: clinical studies in vivo, Spanish and English, made only with Dt that measured Bs and Bp. The results were evaluated in relation to: 1) Concentration of fluoride in Dt, 2) Brushing time with Dt, 3) Frequency of brushing, 4) Rinse post-brushing and 5) Amount of Dt on the brush. Twelve (12) studies were selected. 1) Bs increases 241 % when using a 5000 ppm of Dt compared to 1450 ppm. 2) Bs is increased by 55 % by increasing the duration of brushing 40 s to 120 s 3) Bp increases by 68 % when brushing 3 times a day compared to 2 times. 4) Not rinsing or rinsing with <10 ml for <10 s increases Bs to 270 % compared to rinses higher volume / time. 5) By increasing the amount of Dt of 0.5 g to 1.5 g, Bs increases up to 266 %. The use of 1.5 g of Dt 1450 ppm of fluoride for 120 s, 3 times a day is recommended and once brushing is complete avoiding oral rinse with water or non fluoride mouthwash.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown activity against viruses, bacteria, inflammation and oral lichenoid dysplasia of alkaline extract of the leaves of Sasa senanensis Rehder (SE), suggesting its possible application to oral diseases. In the present study, we performed a small-scale clinical test to investigate whether SE is effective against halitosis and in oral bacterial reduction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 12 volunteers participated in this study. They brushed their teeth immediately after meals three times each day with SE-containing toothpaste (SETP) or placebo toothpaste. Halitosis in the breath and bacterial number on the tongue were measured by commercially available portable apparatuses at a specified time in the morning. RESULTS: Some relationship was observed between halitosis and bacterial number from each individual, especially when those with severe halitosis were included. Repeated experiments demonstrated that SETP significantly reduced halitosis but not the bacterial number on the tongue. CONCLUSION: The present study provides for the first time the basis for anti-halitosis activity of SE.

Dentifrício fluoretado deve conter pelo menos 1.000 ppm (mg F/kg) do seu flúor total (FT) na forma quimicamente solúvel (FST) para ter o potencial máximo de interferir com o processo de cárie. Em formulações de dentifrícios contendo cálcio no abrasivo, a concentração de FST (íon flúor + íon MFP) diminui em função do tempo de armazenamento. Os quatro dentifrícios a base de MFP/CaCO3 mais vendidos no Brasil são capazes de manter 1.000 ppm de FST nos produtos pelo prazo de um ano de fabricação, mas não é conhecido o que ocorre até o final do prazo de validade. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a concentração de FST nesses dentifrícios ao final do seu prazo de validade. Após as análises iniciais realizadas em 2010, os cremes dentais (n=30) foram armazenados à temperatura laboratorial (25°C) e as concentrações de FT e FST foram novamente determinadas em 2012, próximo a data de vencimento (36 meses). As análises foram feitas utilizando protocolo validado de extração, as determinações foram feitas com eletrodo íon específico e os resultados expressos em ppm F (mg F/kg). A concentração (média±dp;n=30) de FT encontrada (1.415,2±62,8) estava de acordo com o declarado pelo fabricante (1.450 ppm F), porém a de FST foi 44% menor (814,7±74,7). Ao final do prazo de validade, os dentifrícios brasileiros mais vendidos não mantêm uma concentração de FST máxima desejável, mostrando tanto a importância do Cirurgião-Dentista na orientação do paciente como a necessidade da revisão da resolução Anvisa nº 79 que regulamenta a matéria sobre dentifrícios
Fluoride toothpaste should contain at least 1,000 ppm (mg F/kg) of fluoride chemically soluble to have the maximum potential to interfere with the caries process. In formulations containing calcium--based abrasives, the concentration of total soluble fluoride (TSF = fluoride ion + MFP ion) decreases according to the storage time. The four MFP/CaCO3-based toothpastes most consumed in Brazil are able to maintain 1,000 ppm of TSF throughout one year of manufacturing, but it is not known if it would be maintained up to the expiration date. Thus, this study evaluated the concentration of TSF in these toothpastes at the end of expiration date. As control, the total fluoride (TF) concentration was also determined. After the analysis of fresh samples conducted in 2010, the toothpastes tube (n=30) were stored at temperature of 25°C and the determinations of TF and TSF concentrations were again assessed in 2012, close to the expiration date of the toothpastes (3 years). The analyses were made using a validated protocol of extraction, the determinations were made with an ion specific electrode and the results were expressed in ppm F (mg F/kg). The concentration (mean±SD;n=30) of TF found (1.415.2±62.8) was according to the declared by the manufacturer (1.450 ppm), but the TSF was 44% lower (814.7±74.7).

Objetivo Comparar el efecto preventivo de caries dental de dos frecuencias de aplicación de barniz fluorado (BF) con un grupo que utilizó instrucciones de cepillado con dentífrico fluorado. Materiales y Método Se siguieron durante 22 meses a 203 niños de una escuela primaria en la delegación Tláhuac, Ciudad de México, quienes fueron asignados aleatoriamente a uno de los siguientes grupos: 1) instrucciones de cepillado con dentífrico fluorado 3 veces al año, 2) BF semestral, 3) BF tres aplicaciones semanales al año. El BF contenía fluorosilano (1000 ppm F), el dentífrico NaF (1450 ppm F). Se registró el índice de caries CPOD y la presencia de manchas blancas usando los criterios del ICDAS (International Caries Detection and Assessment System). Resultados Al inicio del estudio, el promedio de edad fue 9,3 (DE 0,76) años, el promedio de lesiones blancas 0,63 (DE 1,48) y del CPOD 0,70 (DE 1,11). CPOD inicial y final en los tres grupos fueron: instrucciones de cepillado usando dentífrico fluorado 0,67 y 1,17, BF semestral 0,77 y 1,46 y grupo BF 3 aplicaciones 0,67 y 1,03, respectivamente.. De acuerdo a los resultados del modelo GEE (Generalized Estimating Equations), no se detectaron diferencias significativas en el incremento de lesiones blancas o en el CPOD para el índice de caries (CPOD) entre los tres grupo; para el CPOD las aplicaciones semestrales mostraron RR=1,24 (p=0,178) y para 3 aplicaciones RR=0,83, (p=0,298), comparando con el grupo de instrucciones de cepillado con dentífrico fluorado, controlando por edad, sexo, cpod inicial y frecuencia de cepillado. Conclusiones Los escolares mostraron una baja incidencia de caries utilizando cualquiera de los tres regímenes preventivos aplicados.(AU)
Objective To compare preventive effect on dental caries of two frequencies of fluoridated varnish (FV) applications and a group given brushing instructions and using fluoridated toothpaste. Materials and Methods Follow-up study of 203 children attending an elementary school in the municipality of Tláhuac, Mexico City. The children were followed for 22 months. The students were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: 1) brushing instructions with fluoridated toothpaste, 2) FV every six months, 3) three FV applications per week per year. The FV contained fluorosilane (1000 ppm F) and NaF dentifrice (1450 ppm F). The DMFT-caries index and the presence of white spots were recorded (ICDAS, International Caries Detection and Assessment System). Results At baseline, the mean age of the children was 9.3 (SD 0.76) years, white lesions 0.63 (SD 1.48) and DMFT =0.70 (SD 1.11). Averages of the initial and final DMFT scores in the three groups were 0.67 and 1.17 for the toothpaste group, 0.77 and 1.46 for FV twice a year group, and 0.67 y 1.03 for the three-applications-FV group. According to the results of the GEE (Generalized-Estimating Equations) model, there were no significant differences in the rate of white lesions or the increase of the DMFT index. The results for the DMFT were: for bi-annual applications of FV, RR=1.24 (p=0.178) and for the three consecutive applications of FV, RR=0.83, (p=0.298) in comparison with the brushing-instructions group using fluoridated toothpaste, among the three treatment groups, controlling for age, sex, and initial-caries index in primary teeth and brushing frequency. Conclusions Schoolchildren showed a low incidence of caries using any of the three preventive regimens applied.(AU)

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of a fluoride dentifrice containing sodium hexametaphosphate (HMP) on enamel demineralization in situ. METHODS: This double-blind and cross-over study consisted of 3 phases (7 days each) in which 12 volunteers wore intraoral appliances containing four enamel bovine blocks. Specimens were treated (3×/day) with placebo (no F or HMP), 1100ppm F (1100F) and 1100F plus HMP1% (1100F-HMP1%) toothpastes, and the cariogenic challenge was performed using a 30% sucrose solution (6×/day). Final surface hardness, the percentage of surface hardness loss (%SH), the integrated loss of subsurface hardness (ΔKHN), as well as enamel calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P) and firmly-bound fluoride (F) were determined. Also, biofilm formed on the blocks were analyzed for F, Ca, P and insoluble extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) concentrations. Data were submitted 1-way ANOVA, followed by Student-Newman-Keuls' test (p<0.05). RESULTS: 1100F-HMP1% promoted the lowest %SH and ΔKHN among all groups (p<0.001). The addition of HMP1% to 1100F did not enhance enamel F uptake, but significantly increased enamel Ca concentrations (p<0.001). Similar EPS concentrations were seen for 1100F-HMP1% and 1100F groups (p>0.05). All the groups were supersaturated with respect to HA. However, only 1100F-HMP1% group was supersaturated with respect to CaF2 (p<0.05). The ionic activities of F(-), CaF(+) and HF(0) for the 1100F-HMP1% group were the highest among all groups (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: The addition of HMP1% to a conventional toothpaste significantly reduces enamel demineralization in situ when compared to 1100F. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This dentifrice could be a viable alternative to patients at high risk of caries.

Introducción: para el control de la fluorosis dental, se realizan estudios en la población para investigar la cantidad de crema dental que se utiliza en el cepillado de forma fácil y rápida. Este es un indicador importante para identificar posibles factores que se estén relacionando con la fluorosis. Objetivo: diseñar un instrumento cualitativo para estimar el peso de la crema dental que utilizan los niños entre dos y seis años durante el cepillado y describir el uso y manejo de la crema dental de los niños. Métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por el total de niños que asistieron a las clínicas durante seis meses (N=143); se evaluó variables sociodemográficas y el manejo de la crema dental. Se le pidió al padre/acudiente o el niño, según quien dispensa la crema, colocarla en un cepillo dental y se determinó el peso de la crema dental, luego se seleccionó una de las cuatro figuras del cepillo dental con crema. Resultados: el promedio de edad fue de 4,8 años. El 76,9 por ciento de los padres no conocen sobre la cantidad de crema dental que deben utilizar los niños. La cantidad promedio de crema que utilizan los niños fue de 0,514g ± 0,27g. El modelo utilizado para la estimación del peso de la crema dental, resultó estadísticamente adecuado (p=0,000). La estimación de la crema dental por medio del diagrama explica un 31 por ciento (R2) la variabilidad de la cantidad de crema dental que utilizan los niños. Conclusiones: los niños utilizan el doble de la cantidad de crema dental recomendada. Los esquemas gráficos con cuatro figuras de cepillos dentales con diferentes cantidades de crema, es un buen instrumento de medición para estimar la cantidad de crema dental real que utilizan los niños en edad de riesgo de fluorosis(AU)
Introduction: it has been necessary to perform population studies where indicated the amount of toothpaste used in brushing quickly and easily in the control of the fluorosis, considering that the amount of toothpaste is an important factor to identify the possible factors associated with fluorosis. Objectives: designing a qualitative tool to estimate the weight of toothpaste used by children between 2 and 6 years during brushing and describe the use and management of children's toothpaste. Methods: a cross sectional descriptive study was made; the sample consisted of the total number of children who attended the clinic for 6 months (N = 143), it was evaluated sociodemographic variables and the toothpaste handling. The parents or children were asked to dispense the normal among of toothpaste in the toothbrush, the weight was determined, and then they had to select one of the 4 figures of the toothbrush with toothpaste in a diagram. Results: the mean of age was 4, 8 years. The 76, 9 percent of the parents don't know the proper amount of tooth paste that they should use. The average of toothpaste weight was 0,514 g ± 0,27g, the selected weight estimation model was statistically significant (p=0.000). The toothpaste weight estimation through diagram represents in the 31 percent of the cases with the real amount of tooth paste used. Conclusions: children use twice the amount of recommended toothpaste. The graphic diagrams with 4 toothbrushes with different toothpaste amounts is considered a good measurement tool to estimate the real amount of tooth paste used by risk aged children, with statistical correlation(AU)

The anticaries effect of fluoride (F) toothpaste containing 1100 µg F/g in reducing enamel demineralization is well established, but its effect on dentine has not been extensively studied. Furthermore, it has been shown that toothpaste containing a high F concentration is necessary to remineralize root dentine lesions, suggesting that a 1100 µg F/g concentration might not be high enough to reduce root dentine demineralization, particularly when dentine is subjected to a high cariogenic challenge. Thus, the aim of this pilot study was to evaluate in situ the effect of F toothpaste, at a concentration of 1100 µg F/g, on dentine demineralization. In a crossover and double-blind study, conducted in two phases of 14 days, six volunteers wore a palatal appliance containing four slabs of bovine root dentine whose surface hardness (SH) was previously determined and to which a 10% sucrose solution was applied extra-orally 8×/day. Volunteers used a non-F toothpaste (negative control) or F toothpaste (1100 µg F/g, NaF/SiO2) three times a day. On the 10th and 14th days of each phase, two slabs were collected and SH was determined again. Dentine demineralization was assessed as percentage of SH loss (%SHL). The effect of toothpaste was significant, showing lower %SHL for the F toothpaste group (42.0 ± 9.7) compared to the non-F group (62.0 ± 6.4; p < 0.0001), but the effect of time was not significant (p > 0.05). This pilot study suggests that F toothpaste at 1100 µg F/g is able to decrease dentine caries even under a high cariogenic challenge of biofilm accumulation and sugar exposure.

Toothpaste can be used as a vehicle for substances to improve the oral health of individuals and populations. Therefore, it should be recommended based on the best scientific evidence available, and not on the opinion of authorities or specialists. Fluoride is the most important therapeutic substance used in toothpastes, adding to the effect of mechanical toothbrushing on dental caries control. The use of fluoride toothpaste to reduce caries in children and adults is strongly based on evidence, and is dependent on the concentration (minimum of 1000 ppm F) and frequency of fluoride toothpaste use (2'/day or higher). The risk of dental fluorosis due to toothpaste ingestion by children has been overestimated, since there is no evidence that: 1) fluoride toothpaste use should be postponed until the age of 3-4 or older, 2) low-fluoride toothpaste avoids fluorosis and 3) fluorosis has a detrimental effect on the quality of life of individuals exposed to fluoridated water and toothpaste. Among other therapeutic substances used in toothpastes, there is evidence that triclosan/copolymer reduce dental biofilm, gingivitis, periodontitis, calculus and halitosis, and that toothpastes containing stannous fluoride reduce biofilm and gingivitis.

There are a number of reasons that lead to inadequate salivation or complete cessation of salivation. Among others, one of the main can be systemic diseases like Sjögren's syndrome, and the use of medication and radiation therapy. When affected by Xerostomia, oral mucosa requires constant moisturizing. Medicaments stimulating saliva secretion and moisturizers for oral mucosa alleviate symptoms in most of the cases. LABORATORIOS KIN S.A. is a Spanish company offering a mouth moisturizing products' line, among others, KIN HIDRAT toothpaste and KIN HIDRAT spray with a formulation close to natural saliva.

OBJECTIVES: To compare three children's sodium fluoride toothpastes to placebo with respect to enamel remineralisation potential, enamel fluoride uptake and net acid resistance using an in situ palatal caries model in children aged 11-14 years following a single brushing. DESIGN: This was a randomised, single blind (laboratory analyst), single-centre, four-treatment, crossover study with a 7-day washout period between treatments. The treatments were 1,426 ppm fluoride, 1,000 ppm fluoride, 500 ppm fluoride and 0 ppm fluoride (placebo) toothpaste (NaF/silica). A custom made in situ palatal appliance was used by each subject in all treatment periods. At each of the four treatment visits subjects wore the appliance containing four partially demineralised human enamel specimens for 5 minutes and then brushed their teeth using a standardised procedure for 60 seconds under supervision using 1.0 g (±0.1 g) of their assigned toothpaste. After 4 hours the appliance was removed and enamel specimen recovered. This process was repeated until all subjects completed all four study treatment visits. Recovered enamel specimens were analysed for per cent surface microhardness recovery (%SMHR; Knoop) and enamel fluoride uptake (EFU; microdrill biopsy). Subsequently, specimens were demineralised in vitro to determine their % net acid resistance (%NAR; Knoop). RESULTS: All three fluoride toothpastes demonstrated significantly greater %SMHR, EFU and %NAR compared with 0 ppm F toothpaste. The model demonstrated a dose response over the range 0 to 1,426 ppm fluoride for %SMHR, EFU and %NAR. There was no significant difference between 500 ppm F and 1,000 ppm F for %SMHR and between 1,000 ppm F and 1,426 ppm F for %SMHR, EFU and %NAR. CONCLUSIONS: The present in situ study demonstrated that the children's fluoride toothpastes tested are capable of delivering cariostatic amounts of fluoride to early caries lesions following a single brushing.

The objective of this study was to estimate the intake of toothpaste fluoride used by children aged 2 to 6 years (n=87) treated at a hospital of a medium-sized city (Campina Grande, PB) in the Northeastern region of Brazil. Data regarding sociodemographic characteristics of families and children's toothbrushing were collected from questionnaire-based interviews with parents/guardians, and the amount of fluoride used during toothbrushing was estimated using a precision scale for assessment of the risk of dental fluorosis, considering a cutoff value of 0.07 mgF/kg body weight/day. Fluoride content in the toothpastes was analyzed using a specific fluoride electrode. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using the chi-square and Fisher's exact tests (α=0.05). Considering the use of the derice, the risk of fluorosis in the children was 19.5%. There was significant association (p<0.05) between the risk of fluorosis, brushing frequency, type of derice and who performed the child's oral hygiene. It was concluded that a high percentage of children in the studied sample used toothpaste inappropriately and were at risk of developing dental fluorosis.
Resumo O objetivo do presente trabalho foi estimar a ingestão de flúor de derícios utilizados por crianças de 2 a 6 anos de idade (n=87) atendidas em um hospital de médio porte (Campina Grande, PB) na região nordeste do Brasil. Os dados envolveram características sócio-demográficas e escovação dentária das crianças através de uma entrevista com formulário específico, aplicado aos pais/responsáveis, e a quantidade de flúor utilizada na escovação da criança, por meio de balança de precisão, para avaliação do risco de fluorose dentária, considerando o ponto de corte 0,07 mgF/kg peso corporal/dia. O conteúdo de flúor nos cremes dentais foi analisado utilizando eletrodo específico. Os dados foram trabalhados sob a forma de estatística descritiva e inferencial usando o testes do Qui-quadrado de Pearson e Exato de Fisher (α= 0,05). Levando-se em consideração o uso do derício, o risco de fluorose das crianças pesquisadas foi 19,5%. Houve associação significativa entre o risco de fluorose, a frequência de escovação, o tipo de derício e quem realiza a higiene bucal da criança (p<0,05). Concluiu-se que elevada parcela das crianças usavam o derício de forma inadequada e apresentaram risco de fluorose. .
