ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to evaluate effect of bleaching agents on sound enamel (SE) and enamel with early artificial caries lesions (CL) using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Eighty blocks (4 x 5 x 5 mm) of bovine enamel were used and half of them were submitted to a pH cycling model to induce CL. Eight experimental groups were obtained from the treatments and mineralization level of the enamel (SE or CL) (n=10). SE groups G1 - unbleached (control); G2 - 4% hydrogen peroxide (4 HP); G3 - 4 HP containing 0.05% Ca (Ca); G4 - 7.5% hydrogen peroxide (7.5 HP) containing amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). CL groups G5 - unbleached; G6 - 4 HP; G7 - 4 HP containing Ca; G8 - 7.5 HP ACP. G2, G3, G6, G7 were treated with the bleaching agents for 8 h/day during 14 days, while G4 and G8 were exposed to the bleaching agents for 30 min twice a day during 14 days. The enamel blocks were stained with 0.1 mM rhodamine B solution and the demineralization was quantified using fluorescence intensity detected by CLSM. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Fisher’s tests (α=0.05). For the SE groups, the bleaching treatments increased significantly the demineralization area when compared with the unbleached group. In the CL groups, no statistically significant difference was observed (p>0.05).The addition of ACP or Ca in the composition of the whitening products did not overcome the effects caused by bleaching treatments on SE and neither was able to promote remineralization of CL.
RESUMO
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito de agentes clareadores no esmalte sadio (ES) ou esmalte com lesão inicial de cárie artificial (LC), utilizando microscopia confocal laser de varredura (CLSM). Oitenta blocos (4 x 5 x 5 mm) de esmalte bovino foram usados, sendo que 40 destes foram desmineralizados com ciclagem de pH para induzir a LC. Oito grupos experimentais foram obtidos a partir dos tratamentos e condição do esmalte (ES ou LC), com n=10 Grupos ES G1 - sem tratamento (controle); G2 - peróxido de hidrogênio 4% (PH4); G3 PH4 contendo 0,05% cálcio (Ca); G4 - peróxido de hidrogênio 7,5% (pH 7,5) contendo fosfato de cálcio amorfo (ACP). Grupos LC G5 - não clareado; G6 - pH 4; G7 - pH 4 Ca; G8 - pH 7,5 ACP. Os grupos G2, G3, G6 e G7 foram tratados com o gel clareador por 8 h/dia durante 14 dias, enquanto as amostras dos grupos G4 e G8 foram submetidas ao agente clareador por 30 min/duas vezes ao dia, durante 14 dias. Os blocos de esmalte foram corados com solução de Rodamina B e a área fluorescente de desmineralização foi quantificada utilizando CLSM. Os dados foram submetidos a ANOVA e teste de Fisher (p<0,05). Para ES, os tratamentos clareadores aumentaram significativamente a área de desmineralização quando comparado com os grupos não clareados, entretanto, para LC não foi observado diferença estatística significante entre os grupos. A adição de ACP e Ca na composição dos géis clareadores não anulou os efeitos dos tratamentos clareadores no ES, assim como não teve capacidade de remineralizar o LC.
