RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of desensitizing toothpastes (D), their whitening versions (DW) and whitening toothpastes (W) on tooth color change. METHODS: Tooth specimens were allocated into 11 groups (n = 10): 1. Artificial saliva (control); 2. Sensodyne Repair & Protect (SRP-D); 3. Sensodyne Repair & Protect Whitening (SRP-DW); 4. Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief (CSPR-D); 5. Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief Real White (CSPR-DW); 6. Colgate Total 12 (CT12); 7. Colgate Total 12 Whitening (CT12-W); 8. Sensodyne True White (ST-W); 9. Curaprox Black Is White (CB-W); 10.Oral-B 3D White Perfection (OB3D-W) and 11. Erosion-only. They were submitted to two models: A. abrasion; B. erosion/abrasion. Color change (ΔE00 ), ΔL, Δa, and Δb were determined with a spectrophotometer. Data were statistically evaluated (α = 0.05). RESULTS: For both models, ∆E00 of D did not differ significantly from DW. An overall decrease in luminosity (-∆L) and increase (+∆b) in yellowness of the tooth occurred. In abrasion, all groups reduced redness (-∆a) and only SRP-DW differed from control (p = 0.016), but for ∆E00 , ∆L and ∆b, all toothpastes did not differ from the control. In erosion/abrasion, CB-W showed significantly lower ∆E00 and ∆b than the control (∆E00 : p = 0.026; ∆b: p = 0.005) and SRP-D (∆E00 : p = 0.028; ∆b: p = 0.025). Only SRP-DW, CSPR-DW, ST-W, CB-W, and erosion-only had increased redness (+∆a), but none differed from control. CONCLUSIONS: The toothpastes did neither promote whitening nor avoid the yellowish aspect of the tooth after abrasion and erosion-abrasion, regardless of their claim. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Desensitizing and/or whitening toothpastes induced similar changes on tooth color, without promoting whitening effect or reduction in its yellowish aspect.

This study aimed to formulate a hybrid coating material (HC) and to modify this HC with fluoride (NaF) and stannous (SnCl2) ions, directly or encapsulated in nano containers, testing the effects of these materials against dental erosion and erosion-abrasion. Enamel and dentin specimens were treated with the HCs, and then tested in erosion or erosion-abrasion cycling models of 5 days (n = 10 for each substrate, for each model). Deionized water was the negative control, and a fluoride varnish, the positive control. Surface loss (SL, in µm) was evaluated with an optical profilometer, and data were statistically analyzed (α = 0.05). For enamel, in erosion, the positive control and HC without additives showed significantly lower SL than the negative control (p = 0.003 and p = 0.001). In erosion-abrasion, none of the groups differed from the negative control (p > 0.05). For dentin, in erosion, the positive control, HC without additives, HC with non-encapsulated F, and HC with encapsulated F + Sn showed lower SL than the negative control (p < 0.05). In erosion-abrasion, none of the groups differed significantly from the negative control (p < 0.05). HC without additives showed a promising potential for protecting the teeth against dental erosion (with upward trend for improved protection on dentin), but not against erosion-abrasion. The presence of additives did not improve the protective effect of the HC, on both substrates.

The present study aims to evaluate the current scientific data regarding the effectiveness of photobiomodulation (PBM) in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) as an alternative method for pain control. A systematic review was conducted to assess the effectiveness of PBM as treatment for DH. A complete literature search was performed up to October 2016. Searches were conducted using Boolean operators and MeSH terms. References of all selected full-text articles and related reviews were scanned. A total of 280 articles were identified (241 articles were excluded by the title and abstract). Of the 39 articles selected for analysis, 36 were excluded because they presented one or more exclusion criteria. Therefore, three articles were qualified for inclusion in this systematic review. PBM may not lead to adverse effects provided that adequately controlled parameters are followed when treating DH. More consistent studies should be conducted in order to adequately observe the advantageous therapeutic effect of PBM.

OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to synthesize toothpastes containing Beta- TriCalcium Phosphate (ß-TCP) nanoparticles, functionalized with fluoride and tin, and test their ability to reduce erosive tooth wear (ETW). METHODS: Toothpastes were synthesized with the following active ingredients: 1100 ppm of fluoride (as sodium fluoride, F-), 3500 ppm of tin (as stannous chloride, Sn2+), and 800 ppm of ß-TCP (Sizes a - 20 nm; and b - 100 nm). Enamel specimens were randomly assigned into the following groups (n = 10): 1. Commercial toothpaste; 2. Placebo; 3 F-; 4. F- + ß-TCPa; 5. F- + ß-TCPb; 6. F- + Sn2+; 7. F- + Sn2+ + ß-TCPa and 8. F- + Sn2+ + ß-TCPb. Specimens were subjected to erosion-abrasion cycling. Surface loss (in µm) was measured by optical profilometry. Toothpastes pH and available F- were also assessed. RESULTS: Brushing with placebo toothpaste resulted in higher surface loss than brushing with F- (p = 0.005) and F- + ß-TCPb (p = 0.007); however, there was no difference between F- and F- + ß-TCPb (p = 1.00). Commercial toothpaste showed no difference from Placebo (p = 0.279). The groups F-, F- + ß-TCPa, F- + ß-TCPb, F- + Sn2+, F- + Sn2+ + ß-TCPa and F- + Sn2+ + ß-TCPb were not different from the commercial toothpaste (p > 0.05). Overall, the addition of ß-TCP reduced the amount of available fluoride in the experimental toothpastes. The pH of toothpastes ranged from 4.97 to 6.49. CONCLUSIONS: Although toothpaste containing ß-TCP nanoparticles protected enamel against dental erosion-abrasion, this effect was not superior to the standard fluoride toothpaste (commercial). In addition, the functionalization of ß-TCP nanoparticles with fluoride and tin did not enhance their protective effect. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Although ß-TCP nanoparticles have some potential to control Erosive Tooth Wear, their incorporation into an experimental toothpaste appears to have a protective effect that is similar to a commercial fluoride toothpaste.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of different tin-containing toothpastes on the control of erosive tooth wear in enamel and dentin. METHODS: Enamel and dentin slabs were randomly distributed into 7 experimental groups (n = 10/substrate): C-: negative control (Artificial saliva); AmF (regular fluoridated toothpaste without tin); Sn-1 (SnF2/NaF); Sn-2 (SnF2/NaF/SnCl2); Sn-3 (SnCl2/NaF); Sn-4 (SnF2/SnCl2); Sn-5 (SnCl2/AmF/NaF/chitosan). Specimens were submitted to 5-day erosion-abrasion cycling. Surface loss (SL) was determined with an optical profilometer. Tin deposition on the tooth surfaces and some characteristics of the toothpastes (pH, potentially available F-, %weight of solid particles, and RDA) were also assessed. Data were statistically analyzed (α = 0.05). RESULTS: For enamel, the Sn-2 presented the lowest SL, not differing significantly from AmF, C+, and Sn-3. The SL of these groups was significantly lower than the C-, except for Sn-3. Sn-1 and Sn-4 were also not significantly different from C-. For dentin, C- significantly showed the highest SL values, whilst, Sn-1 presented the lowest SL, not differing significantly from AmF, Sn-2, C+, and Sn-3. There was a significant positive association between enamel SL and the pH and tin deposition. Dentin SL was significantly negatively associated with the %weight of solid particles and RDA. CONCLUSIONS: Most of the tin-toothpastes were able to exhibit some protection against ETW. In this process, the toothpastes characteristics play a role, as lower enamel SL was significantly associated with lower pH values and tin deposition; and lower dentin SL was associated with higher %weight of solid particles and RDA of the toothpastes. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Tin-containing toothpastes can be used for erosive tooth wear protection, but our study showed that their effect depends on the pH, amount of tin deposition, % weight of solid particles and RDA of the toohpastes.

OBJECTIVES: To synthesize and characterize a novel dentin adhesive containing Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate (ß-TCP) nanoparticles and test its ability to reduce dentin permeability (dP). METHODS: Experimental adhesives were prepared by mixing Bis-GMA, TEGDMA, HEMA (50/25/25 wt.%), photo-initiators, and inhibitors. The following groups were tested: Experimental adhesives without ß-TCP (Exp.); with 10 wt.% ß-TCP (Exp.10 wt.% ß-TCP); with 15 wt.% ß-TCP (Exp.15 wt.% ß-TCP), Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBMP) and Clearfil SE Protect Bond (CFPB). Degree of conversion (DC%, 10 and 20 s); Flexural Strength (FS), Knoop Hardness (KHN), and Cell Viability (OD%) tests were performed. dP was evaluated by hydraulic conductance, using human dentin disks (n=12), at three-time intervals: post-EDTA (T0); post-treatment (T1); and post-erosion/abrasion cycling (T2). Data were statistically analyzed (α=0.05). RESULTS: For all groups, exposure time for 20 s presented a higher DC% than for 10 s. For FS, filled adhesives did not differ from unfilled and from CFPB. Experimental adhesives did not differ among them and showed lower KHN than the commercial products. Cell viability did not differ among adhesives, except Exp. 15 wt.%, which showed lower OD% than Exp., Exp. 10% and, CFPB. For dP, only Exp.10 and 15 wt.% ß-TCP did not present difference between the times T1 and T2. After cycling, Exp.10 wt.% ß-TCP presented lower permeability than Exp. and CFPB. CONCLUSIONS: The incorporation of 10 wt.% ß-TCP nanoparticles into the resin-based dental material did not affect its mechanical properties and biocompatibility, and promoted the greatest reduction in dentin permeability, sustaining this effect under erosive/abrasive challenges. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: A novel resin-based dental material containing ß-TCP nanoparticles was able to reduce dentin permeability, maintaining its efficacy after erosive/abrasive challenges. The synthesized material did not affect dental pulp cell viability and might be promising for other conditions that require dental remineralization, such as tooth wear and dental caries.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of different toothbrushing (with dentifrice) protocols on the progression of erosive tooth wear for in vitro studies. DESIGN: Bovine enamel specimens were randomly distributed into 12 experimental groups (n = 10), according to the study factors: (1) brushing movement (horizontal or circular); (2) slurry diluent (artificial saliva or distilled water); (3) toothpaste dilution ratio (1:2, 1:3 or 1:4). A 5-day erosion-abrasion cycling model was performed, each consisting of 4 erosive challenges (0.3 % citric acid, pH=2.6) followed by 60 min exposure to artificial saliva. Brushing with fluoride toothpaste (15 s, 1400 ppm F-, AmF) was carried out 2x/day. Enamel surface loss (SL) was determined by optical profilometry. Data were statistically analyzed with three-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS: SL was lower for the horizontal movement than for the circular (p = 0.044). There were no significant differences among the dilution ratios for artificial saliva. For distilled water, the more concentrated slurry (1:2) presented greater surface loss than the less concentrated slurries (1:3 and 1:4, p = 0.049 and p = 0.014, respectively). Dilutions with artificial saliva at ratios 1:3 and 1:4 presented higher surface loss than with distilled water (p = 0.008 and p < 0.001, respectively); however, for 1:2 ratio, there were no significant differences between the diluents. CONCLUSIONS: The in vitro progression of enamel SL was influenced by the brushing movement, as well as the combination of the dilution ratio and the diluent of the toothpaste slurry, and therefore, all these factors must be considered when comparing results from different studies.

To modify an adhesive system with halloysite clay nanotubes (HNTs) containing arginine and calcium carbonate and to evaluate their cytocompatibility, viscosity and efficacy in reducing dentin permeability. HNTs containing arginine and calcium carbonate were incorporated into the primer and adhesive of a three-step adhesive system (SBMP), and their viscosity was measured. Discs (n = 4/group) were prepared: SBMP (control), HNT-PR (modified primer), HNT-ADH (modified adhesive) and HNT-PR + ADH (modified primer and adhesive) were evaluated regarding cell death and viability. Dentin discs were prepared and randomly assigned into the following treatments (n = 10): NC (no treatment), SBMP, HNT-PR, HNT-ADH, HNT-PR + ADH and COL (Colgate® Sensitive Pro-relief™ prophylaxis paste). After, they were submitted to an erosive-abrasive cycling. Dentin permeability (hydraulic conductance) was evaluated at baseline, 24 h after treatment and after cycling. Both the modified primer and adhesive showed significantly higher viscosity than their controls. Group HNT-PR resulted in significantly higher cytotoxicity when compared to SBMP and HNT-PR + ADH groups. Group HNT-ADH resulted in the highest cell viability compared to all other groups. All groups showed significantly lower dentin permeability when compared to the NC group. Post-cycling, SBMP and HNT-ADH groups showed significantly lower permeability when compared to COL group. The addition of encapsulated arginine and calcium carbonate did not affect the cytocompatibility of the materials nor their ability to reduce dentin permeability.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of an experimental 58S bioactive glass on dentin permeability (dP) and erosive tooth wear (dentin surface loss - dSL). METHODS: 58S bioactive glass was synthetized using a sol-gel methodology, following by lyophilization and calcination, then mixed with phosphoric acid to obtain a paste (BGP). Forty-eight dentin disks (1 mm-thick) were used for dP, and 48 dentin slabs (3 mm × 3 mm) for dSL, which were assessed at three time intervals: post-EDTA (5 min in 17% EDTA solution); post-treatment (C: distilled water; BGP: experimental bioactive glass paste; NP: Nupro prophylaxis paste; CXT: Clinpro XT varnish); and post-erosive/abrasive cycling. Data were statistically analyzed (α=0.05). RESULTS: For dP and dSL, Groups did not differ significantly post-EDTA (p>0.05). Post-treatment, all groups showed lower dP than C (p<0.05), without differing significantly among them. For the dSL analysis, Groups C, BGP and NP did not differ significantly, showing lower values than CXT (p<0.05). Post-cycling, C continued to show the highest dP (p<0.05). Specimens from Group CXT had the lowest dP and did not differ from NP (p=0.86) which did not differ from BGP (p=0.193). For C and BGP, dP value was higher post-cycling than post-treatment (p<0.05). For NP and CXT, these experimental times did not differ (p>0.05). Post-cycling, dSL for C, BGP and NP did not differ significantly; values were higher than those for CXT (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: BGP reduced dP after application, with a reduced effect after cycling. Nonetheless, it was not able to protect dentin against erosive tooth wear. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Minimizing dentin hypersensitivity is a challenge in the field of dentistry. The development of alternative products with potential to obliterate dentinal tubules and provide resistance to chemical/mechanical stimuli is, thus, highly desirable. We have proposed a material able to reduce dentin permeability, which has emerged as a promising alternative for this purpose.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to test, in vitro, the anti-cariogenic effect of experimental hybrid coatings, with nano clays of halloysite or bentonite, loaded with sodium fluoride or with a combination of sodium fluoride and stannous chloride, respectively. METHODOLOGY: The varnish Fluor Protector (1,000 ppm of F-) was used as positive control and no treatment was the negative control. Enamel specimens (5 mm × 5 mm) were obtained from bovine teeth. The specimens (n=10) had their surfaces divided into two halves (5 mm × 2.5 mm each), in which one half received one of the treatments (Hybrid; Hybrid + NaF; Hybrid + NaF + SnCl2; Hybrid + NaF Loaded; Hybrid + NaF + SnCl2 Loaded). The specimens were submitted to a cariogenic challenge using a biofilm model (S. mutans UA159, for 5 days). Enamel surfaces both under and adjacent to the treated area were analyzed for mineral loss and lesion depth, by transverse microradiography. The pH of the medium was measured twice a day, and the fluoride release was analyzed. Additional specimens were submitted to confocal analysis. RESULTS: Data were statistically analyzed by two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey test (α=0.05). None of hybrid groups were able to reduce the lesion depth; the Hybrid + NaF group, however, was able to reduce mineral loss differing from the negative control (p=0.008). The groups showed no significant difference in the pH measurement and fluoride release. Confocal analysis confirmed that for all groups the biofilm growth was similar. CONCLUSION: None of the hybrid groups reduced lesion depth, but the Hybrid + NaF group was able to promote protection against mineral loss.

This study synthesized and tested experimental gels containing fluoride (F-) and stannous (Sn2+) ions for the control of dental erosion. Enamel and dentin polished specimens were eroded (1% citric acid solution, 10 min) and randomly allocated into 5 groups (n=10): Placebo - Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HMC) gel; F+Sn+HMC - 7,500 ppm F- / 15,000 ppm Sn2+; F+HMC - 7,500 ppm F-; Commercial acidulated phosphate fluoride gel (12,300 ppm F-); and Control - no treatment. After treatment (applied for 60 s), specimens underwent an erosion-remineralization cycling (5 min in 0.3% citric acid solution, 60 min in artificial saliva, 4×/day, 20 days). Surface loss (SL, in µm) was determined after the 5th, 10th and 20th days of cycling (α=0.05). For enamel, after 5 and 10 days, F+Sn+HMC presented the lowest SL, which did not differ from the commercial gel. After 20 days, no differences were found between commercial, F+HMC, and F+Sn+HMC groups. Placebo did not differ from the control at any time points, and both groups presented the highest SL when compared to the other groups. For dentin, on the 5th day, F+Sn+HMC, F+HMC and commercial did not differ significantly, showing lower SL than the control and the placebo. On the 10th day, F+Sn+HMC and commercial presented the lowest SL compared to control and placebo. After 20 days, only the commercial gel showed lower SL than the control and placebo. Thus, the experimental F+Sn+HMC gel was able to control the progression of tooth erosion.
Este estudo desenvolveu e testou géis experimentais contendo íons fluoreto (F-) e estanho (Sn2+) para o controle da erosão dentária. Os espécimes polidos, de esmalte e dentina, foram previamente erodidos (solução de ácido cítrico a 1%, 10 min) e alocados aleatoriamente em 5 grupos (n = 10): Placebo - gel de hidroxipropilmetilcelulose (HMC); F + Sn + HMC - 7.500 ppm F- / 15.000 ppm Sn2+; F + HMC - 7.500 ppm F-; Gel de flúor fosfato acidulado comercial (12.300 ppm F-); e Controle - sem tratamento. Após o tratamento (aplicado por 60 s), os espécimes foram submetidos a uma ciclagem de erosão-remineralização (5 min em solução de ácido cítrico a 0,3%, 60 min em saliva artificial, 4 × / dia, 20 dias). A perda de superfície (SL, em µm) foi determinada após o 5º, 10º e 20º dias de ciclagem (α = 0,05). Para o esmalte, após 5 e 10 dias, o F + Sn + HMC apresentou a menor PS, não diferindo do gel comercial. Após 20 dias, não foram encontradas diferenças entre os grupos comercial, F + HMC e F + Sn + HMC. O placebo não diferiu do controle em nenhum momento, e ambos os grupos apresentaram a maior PS, comparado aos demais grupos. Para dentina, no 5º dia , F + Sn + HMC, F + HMC e comercial não diferiram significativamente, apresentando menor PS que o grupo controle e placebo. No 10º dia, F+Sn+HMC e comercial apresentaram a menor PS comparado ao grupo controle e placebo. No 20º dia, apenas o gel comercial apresentou PS menor que o controle e o placebo. Assim, o gel experimental F + Sn + HMC foi capaz de controlar a progressão da erosão dentária.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of activated charcoal toothpastes on enamel and dentin erosive wear. METHODS: Ninety enamel and dentin slabs were randomly distributed into 9 experimental groups (nâ¯=â¯10/substrate): Artificial saliva (negative control); Elmex Caries (EXC - 1400â¯ppm F- as AmF, reference toothpaste without charcoal); Colgate Luminous White Activated Charcoal (CLW - 1000â¯ppm F- as MFP); Colgate Natural Extracts (CNE - 1450â¯ppm F- as NaF); Oral-B 3D White Mineral Clean (OMC - 1100â¯ppm F- as NaF); Curaprox Black is White (CBW - 950â¯ppm F- as MFP); Bianco Carbon (BIC - no F-); Natural Suavetex (NSX - no F-); Oralgen Nupearl Advanced (ONA - no F-). Specimens were submitted to a 5-day erosion-toothbrushing abrasion cycling. Surface loss (SL) was determined with an optical profilometer. pH and concentration of available fluoride in the slurries were also assessed. Data were statistically analyzed (αâ¯=â¯0.05). RESULTS: For both substrates, CBW, CNE and EXC had significantly lower SL values than the control. CLW and OMC promoted significantly less dentin wear than the control. All the other groups did not differ significantly from the control. There was a strong negative correlation between SL and concentration of fluoride in the slurries for enamel (râ¯=â¯-0.77) and dentin (râ¯=â¯-0.91), and a strong positive correlation (râ¯=â¯0.77) between enamel SL and pH. CONCLUSIONS: For both substrates, none of the activated charcoal-based toothpastes resulted in higher SL than brushing with artificial saliva. Only two of the charcoal toothpastes and the reference toothpaste were able to provide further protection against SL. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Activated charcoal-containing toothpastes are becoming popular, despite the absence of evidence supporting their safety for use by individuals with erosive tooth wear. These products did not pose an additional risk for these subjects. However, it would be preferable to use products that exhibits further protective effect.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the action of hesperidin (HPN) at different concentrations to prevent dentin erosive wear, associated or not to abrasion. METHODS: A study with 6 experimental groups (n = 10) for erosion (experiment 1) and another 6 for erosion + abrasion (experiment 2). The treatments were: distilled water (DW), DW with collagenase (DW + Col), 0.46% epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and 0.1%, 0.5% or 1% HPN. The specimens were submitted to a cycle (3x/day) for 5 days that consisted of immersion on 1% citric acid (5 min), artificial saliva (60 min), treatment (5 min), brushing (150 movements only in experiment 2), and artificial saliva (60 min / overnight). Collagenase was added in artificial saliva for all groups except DW-group. Dentin changes were assessed with optical profilometry and scanning electron microscopy. Data were submitted to one-way analysis of variance and Tukey tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS: For experiment 1, DW showed the lowest wear and did not significantly differ from EGCG. DW + Col showed the highest wear, being significantly different from HPN at 1%. In experiment 2, DW showed the lowest wear and DW + Col the highest. EGCG showed less wear than the three groups treated with HPN. In addition, for both cycling models, there were no significant differences among the three concentrations of HPN analyzed. In micrographs of HPN-treated groups, it could be observed the formation of a barrier on the dentin that promoted the obliteration of the tubules. CONCLUSIONS: HPN was able to preserve the demineralized organic matrix layer but did not overcome the effect of EGCG.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of a toothpaste containing calcium silicate/sodium phosphate/fluoride associated or not to the boost serum (BS) against erosive tooth wear (ETW) on enamel and dentin. METHODOLOGY: Bovine enamel and dentin specimens were subjected to an erosion-abrasion cycling model (1% citric acid - pH 3.6 -2 min / artificial saliva - 60 min, 4×/day, 5 days). Toothbrushing was performed for 15 s (2 min exposed to slurry), 2×/day, with the toothpastes (n=10): control without fluoride (Weleda), Arg/Ca/MFP (Colgate Pro-Relief), Si/PO4/MFP (Regenerate-Unilever), and Si/PO4/MFP/BS (Si/PO4/MFP with dual BS - Advanced Enamel Serum-Unilever). The effect of treatments on the eroded tissues was assessed by surface microhardness in the first day, and surface loss (SL) resulting from ETW was evaluated by profilometry (µm) after three and five days. Additional dentin specimens (n=5/group) were subjected to 20,000 brushing cycles to verify the abrasivity of the toothpastes. Data were subjected to ANOVA and correlation tests (5%). RESULTS: For enamel, no difference in microhardness was observed among the treated groups, and similar SL was obtained after 5 days. For dentin, Si/PO4/MFP/BS resulted in higher microhardness values, but none of the groups presented significantly lower SL than the control. There was no significant correlation between SL and abrasiveness. CONCLUSION: The calcium silicate/sodium phosphate toothpaste and serum increased microhardness of eroded dentin, but they did not significantly reduce enamel and dentin loss compared to the non-fluoride control toothpaste. The abrasiveness of the toothpastes could not predict their effect on ETW.

OBJECTIVE: To synthesize and characterize a novel resin-based dental material containing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) surface-modified halloysite-clay nanotubes (HNTs) for long-term delivery of guest molecules. METHODS: The optimal concentrations of HNT (10, 15, 20 wt.%) and silane (0, 2, 4 vol.%sil) to be incorporated into the resin-based materials were determined (15 wt.%HNT, 4 vol.%sil) after assessment of the mechanical properties (DC%, degree of conversion; FS, flexural strength; FM, flexural modulus; and UTS, ultimate tensile strength). The HNTsil-powder was loaded with chlorhexidine (CHX) to evaluate the effect of the silanization on drug release. Resin-discs were prepared for the following groups: RES (resin), HNT (resin+15 wt.%HNT), HNTsil (resin+15 wt.%HNT silanized), HNT-CHX (resin+15 wt.%HNT loaded with chlorhexidine), HNTsil-CHX (resin+15 wt.%HNTsil-CHX), and 0.2 vol.%CHX (resin+0.2 vol.%CHX solution). Specimens were stored in water for 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 days at 37 °C. Aliquots from each time point and the final 15-day specimens were evaluated for the zone of inhibition (ZOI) against Streptococcus mutans. CHX release was analyzed using spectrophotometry at absorbance of 300 nm. Data were statistically analyzed (α = 0.05). RESULTS: All materials presented similar DC%. Reduced FS but increased FM was detected for 20 wt.%HNT-4%APTES. Groups with 15 wt.% and 20 wt.%HNT with/without APTES presented higher values of UTS. Agar diffusion data indicates that the HNTsil-CHX had a greater ZOI than all other groups over 15 days. HNTsil-CHX had the highest absorbance for day 1 but presented similar values to other groups every time point after. SIGNIFICANCE: Silanization of nanotubes followed by encapsulation of chlorhexidine is a promising technique for long-term delivery of guest molecules.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the anti-erosive effect of solutions containing ß-tricalcium phosphate (ß-TCP) nanoparticles functionalized with fluoride or with fluoride plus stannous on enamel and dentin. METHODS: ß-TCP nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Sixty enamel and dentin specimens were randomly allocated into the groups (nâ¯=â¯10): Control (water); F (NaF, 225â¯ppm F-); Fâ¯+â¯Sn (NaFâ¯+â¯SnCl2, 800â¯ppm Sn2+); F+ß-TCP (F+40â¯ppm ß-TCP); Fâ¯+â¯Sn+ß-TCP (Fâ¯+â¯Sn+40â¯ppm ß-TCP); Fâ¯+â¯Sn+100ß-TCP (Fâ¯+â¯Sn+100â¯ppm ß-TCP). Specimens underwent erosion-remineralization cycling (5â¯min immersion into 1 % citric acid solution and 60â¯min exposure to artificial saliva, 4×/day, 5 days). Immersion in the test solutions was performed for 2â¯min, 2×/day. Surface loss (SL, in µm) was determined by optical profilometry at the end of cycling. Data were analyzed using one way-ANOVA and Tukey's tests (αâ¯=â¯0.05). RESULTS: XRD confirmed the ß-TCP phase. TEM micrographs showed differences between the bare nanoparticle and the ß-TCP functionalized with F and Sn. All enamel groups presented lower SL than the control, with Fâ¯+â¯Sn, Fâ¯+â¯Sn+ß-TCP, and Fâ¯+â¯Sn+100ß-TCP showing the lowest values. For dentin, all the groups had lower SL than the control. F+ß-TCP presented the lowest SL, significantly differing from all the other groups. CONCLUSION: ß-TCP nanoparticles functionalized with fluoride showed improved anti-erosive effect compared to the fluoride solution on dentin. There was no significant effect of the ß-TCP nanoparticles functionalized with fluoride plus stannous in both substrates. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: ß-TCP nanoparticles are a promising agent to be added to oral health products to improve the protective effect of fluoride against dentin erosion.

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the impact of desensitizing (D) and/or whitening (W) dentifrices on erosion and erosion-abrasion. METHODS: Enamel specimens were allocated into 10 groups (nâ¯=â¯20): 1. Artificial saliva (control); 2. Sensodyne Repair&Protect (SRP-D); 3. Sensodyne Repair&Protect Whitening (SRP-W); 4. Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief (CSPR-D); 5. Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief Real White (CSPRR-W); 6. Colgate Total 12 (CT); 7. Colgate Total 12 Professional Whitening (CTP-W); 8. Sensodyne True White (ST-W); 9. Curaprox Black is White (CB-W); 10. Oral-B 3D White Perfection (OB3D-W). For abrasion (nâ¯=â¯10), 30,000 brushing strokes were performed and surface roughness (SR) was evaluated. Erosion-abrasion (nâ¯=â¯10) consisted of 1 % citric acid (2â¯min), artificial saliva (60â¯min); 6×/day; 5 days. Toothbrushing was carried out 2×/day (45 strokes). Surface loss (SL) was determined with an optical profilometer. Data were statistically analyzed (αâ¯=â¯0.05). RESULTS: Relative to SR, only OB3D-W had a significantly rougher surface than the control (pâ¯=â¯0.014). SRP-D, CSPR-D and ST-W showed no difference from the baseline. High SL was observed for ST-W, OB3D-W and CTP-W, without significant differences from the control. CT showed the lowest SL, not differing from SRP-D and SRP-W. There was a weak negative correlation between SL and concentration of free fluoride in the slurries, SL and SR, and SL and pH, all pâ¯>â¯0.05. CONCLUSIONS: Only one dentifrice increased surface roughness of enamel to a higher degree than brushing with saliva. Brushing with the test dentifrices did not cause higher enamel erosive wear than brushing with saliva. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study enhances our knowledge on the effect of desensitizing and whitening dentifrices, indicating that they do not worsen enamel loss due to abrasion and they might be a safe option for individuals with erosive tooth wear.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of Er,Cr:YSGG laser associated or not with acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) on the control of enamel erosion progression. DESIGN: Enamel slabs (4 mm × 4 mm × 2 mm) from bovine incisors were flattened, polished, and received a tape on their test surfaces, leaving a 4 mm × 1 mm area exposed. Specimens were eroded (10 min in 1% citric acid solution) and randomly assigned into 8 experimental groups (n = 10): Control (no treatment); F (APF gel, 1.23% F, pH 3.6-3.9); Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation (P1: 0.25 W, 20 Hz, 2.8 J/cm2, 56 W/cm2); Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation (P2: 0.50 W, 20 Hz, 5.7 J/cm2, 1136 W/cm2); Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation (P3: 0.75 W, 20 Hz, 8.5 J/cm2, 1704 W/cm2); F + Laser P1; F + Laser P2; F + Laser P3. Specimens were then subjected to erosive cycling (5 min immersion in 0.3% citric acid solution, followed by immersion in artificial saliva for 60 min; 4×/day for 5 days). At the end of cycling, surface loss (SL, in µm) was determined with optical profilometry. Selected specimens were further evaluated by environmental scanning electron microscopy (n = 3). Data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Tukey tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Group F + Laser P2 had the lowest SL value, differing significantly from the control; however, with no significant difference from the other groups. All groups, except F + Laser P2, showed no significant difference in SL when compared with the control. An irregular and rough surface, suggestive of a melting action of laser, was observed on enamel in Laser P2 and F + Laser P2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Association of the Er,Cr:YSGG laser in parameter 2 with fluoride was the only treatment capable of controlling the progression of enamel erosion.

Aim: To evaluate the protection offered by commercial mouthwashes containing sodium fluoride or stannous chloride associated with sodium fluoride to enamel and dentin, prior to erosive and abrasive cycling. Materials and Methods: Enamel and dentin samples were obtained from bovine incisors and subdivided into 3 groups (n=10), according to the fluoridated ingredient tested: FS (sodium fluoride - NaF (225 ppm)); FE (tin fluoride - NaF + SnCl2 (800 ppm Sn2+)); control (distilled water). The samples were submitted to an erosive/abrasive cycle with immersion in citric acid (lemon soda for 5 min, 4×/day, 5 days, with remineralization intervals in artificial saliva for 60 min). Abrasion was carried out with an electric brush (200 g/force) after the first and last cycles, 2x/day, and immediately afterward immersed in the tested solutions. Structure loss was obtained by optical profilometry. The data were subjected to analysis of variance and multiple comparison for each substrate separately. Results: For enamel there was a difference between the groups (p = 0.027), with the FS showing less loss of structure compared to the control 2.02 (±0.48). The FE group showed similar loss to the control and FS 2.32 (±0.58)ab. For dentin there was a difference between the groups (p = 0.011), with FE showing less loss of structure compared to the other groups, 0.82 (25% - 0.34; 75% - 0.95). Discussion: The protection of fluorides in erosive/abrasive challenges depends on the type and dental substrate. Conclusion: Mouthwash with sodium fluoride prior to erosive/abrasive challenges caused less loss of enamel surface, while for dentin, sodium fluoride associated with stannous chloride caused less loss of structure.
Objetivo: Avaliar a proteção oferecida por soluções para bochecho de fluoreto de sódio ou cloreto de estanho associado ao fluoreto de sódio ao esmalte e à dentina, previamente à ciclagem erosiva e abrasiva. Materiais e Métodos: Amostras de esmalte e dentina foram obtidas a partir de incisivos bovinos e subdivididas em 3 grupos (n=10), de acordo com o princípio ativo fluoretado testado: FS (fluoreto de sódio - NaF (225 ppm)); FE (fluoreto de estanho - NaF + SnCl2 (800 ppm Sn2+)); controle (água destilada). As amostras foram submetidas a um ciclo erosivo/abrasivo com imersão em ácido cítrico (refrigerante de limão por 5 min, 4×/dia, 5 dias, com intervalos de remineralização em saliva artificial por 60 min). A abrasão foi realizada com escova elétrica (200 g/força) após o primeiro e o último ciclos, 2×/dia, e logo em seguida imersos nas soluções testadas. A perda de estrutura foi obtida por perfilometria óptica. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e comparação múltipla para cada substrato separadamente. Resultados: Para esmalte houve diferença entre os grupos (p = 0,027), tendo o FS apresentados menor perda de estrutura comparado ao controle 2,02 (±0,48). O grupo FE apresentou perda similar ao controle e ao FS 2,32 (±0,58)ab. Para dentina houve diferença entre os grupos (p = 0,011), sendo que o FE apresentou menor perda de estrutura comparado aos demais grupos 0,82 (25% - 0,34; 75% - 0,95). Discussão: A proteção dos fluoretos em desafios erosivos/abrasivos depende do tipo e do substrato dental. Conclusão: O bochecho com fluoreto de sódio previamente aos desafios erosivos/abrasivos apresentou menor perda de superfície em esmalte, enquanto para dentina o fluoreto de sódio associado ao cloreto de estanho apresentou menor perda de estrutura.
RESUMO
Abstract Objective The aim of this study is to test, in vitro, the anti-cariogenic effect of experimental hybrid coatings, with nano clays of halloysite or bentonite, loaded with sodium fluoride or with a combination of sodium fluoride and stannous chloride, respectively. Methodology The varnish Fluor Protector (1,000 ppm of F-) was used as positive control and no treatment was the negative control. Enamel specimens (5 mm × 5 mm) were obtained from bovine teeth. The specimens (n=10) had their surfaces divided into two halves (5 mm × 2.5 mm each), in which one half received one of the treatments (Hybrid; Hybrid + NaF; Hybrid + NaF + SnCl2; Hybrid + NaF Loaded; Hybrid + NaF + SnCl2 Loaded). The specimens were submitted to a cariogenic challenge using a biofilm model (S. mutans UA159, for 5 days). Enamel surfaces both under and adjacent to the treated area were analyzed for mineral loss and lesion depth, by transverse microradiography. The pH of the medium was measured twice a day, and the fluoride release was analyzed. Additional specimens were submitted to confocal analysis. Results Data were statistically analyzed by two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey test (α=0.05). None of hybrid groups were able to reduce the lesion depth; the Hybrid + NaF group, however, was able to reduce mineral loss differing from the negative control (p=0.008). The groups showed no significant difference in the pH measurement and fluoride release. Confocal analysis confirmed that for all groups the biofilm growth was similar. Conclusion None of the hybrid groups reduced lesion depth, but the Hybrid + NaF group was able to promote protection against mineral loss.
