Resumo
Formulações de dentifrícios com concentrações reduzidas de fluoreto (F) têm sido estudadas para diminuir o risco de fluorose dentária. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar a eficácia de dentifrícios com concentrações reduzidas de F (250 μgF/g), suplementados com hexametafosfato (HMP) sobre a desmineralização do esmalte de dente bovino. Blocos de esmalte foram submetidos a repetidas ciclagens de pH alternadas com tratamentos (2x/dia) com dentifrícios sem F contendo HMP nas concentrações de 0, 0,25, 0,5, 1,0, 2,0 e 3,0%, dentifrícios com 250 gF/g suplementados com HMP nas mesmas concentrações, placebo (sem F e HMP), um com 500 μgF/g, outro com 1100 μgF/g e um comercial (Crest, de 1100 gF/g). Após as ciclagens determinou-se a dureza de superfície final (SHf), perda integrada de dureza de subsuperfície (ΔKHN) e o conteúdo de F no esmalte. Os resultados foram submetidos à ANOVA e teste de Bonferroni (p<0.05). O grupo 250 gF/g com 0,5% de HMP apresentou maior valor de SHf, e menor ΔKHN, seguido do grupo de 250 gF/g com 1,0% de HMP que ficou semelhante ao 1100 gF/g e Crest. HMP não interferiu na incorporação de F pelo esmalte em concentrações menores que 3%. Além disso, a adição de 0,5% de HMP a um dentifrício sem F causou um aumento de SHf e uma redução de ΔKHN em comparação ao placebo. Conclui-se que é possível reduzir a concentração de F a 250 gF/g e se obter uma ação comparável de um dentifrício comercial sobre a desmineralização do esmalte bovino através da suplementação com hexametafosfato nas concentrações de 0,5 e 1%
Formulations of dentifrices with reduced concentrations of fluoride (F) have been studied to decrease the risk of dental fluorosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of dentifrices with low concentration of F (250 μgF/g), supplemented with hexametaphosphate (HMP) on the demineralization of bovine tooth enamel. Blocks of enamel were submitted to repeated pH cyclings alternated with treatments (2x/day) with dentifrices without F or containing 250 gF/g supplemented with HMP at concentrations of 0, 0,25, 0,5 1,0, 2,0 e 3,0%, dentifrices supplemented with HMP the same concentrations, placebo (without F and HMP), a dentifrice with 500 μgF/g, another with 1100 μgF/g and a commercial dentifrice (Crest, 1100 gF/g). After cycling, the following analysis were conducted: final surface hardness (SHf), subsurface hardness integrated loss (ΔKHN) and the content of F on enamel. The results were submitted to variance analysis and Bonferroni test (p<0.05). The group of 250 gF/g with 0,5% HMP showed the highest SHf value and the lowest ΔKHN value, followed by the group supplemented with 1,0% HMP which was similar to 1100 gF/g and Crest groups. HMP did not impair the uptake of F by enamel at concentrations lower than3%. Furthermore the addition of 0,5% HMP to a non fluoridated dentifrice caused a rise on SHf and a decrease on ΔKHN in comparison to placebo. It was concluded that it is possible to reduce the concentration of F to 250 μgF/g and obtain an action similar to a commercial dentifrice on the demineralization of enamel by supplementation with hexametaphosphate in concentrations of 0.5 and 1%
