“…The main interactions between the oral environment and the incipient caries lesions occur in the surface layer of the tooth structure [21][22][23]. This behavior becomes the surface hardness tests a valid option to evaluate the relationships between fluoride and enamel [23,24].…”

“…Under low pH scenario, these formed complexes onto enamel surface increase the availability of the fluoride ion, enhancing the remineralizing ability [21]. In the clinical possibilities of fluoride application, the APF is commonly used due to its availability, low cost and easy clinical application.…”

“…In this case, as it presents a low pH (around 3.5 -4.5), it may induce a discrete surface etching, increasing the surface roughness. Also, this etching may favor for the incorporation of fluoride onto the enamel [21]. On other hand, the low pH is more effective for this purpose in sound enamel or early lesions.…”

Ciência Odontológica Brasileira ReSumoObjetivos: A aplicação tópica de flúor é a principal estratégia para remineralizar lesões de mancha branca (MB). Foi proposto que o aumento na retenção deste íon na superfície pode favorecer a remineralização. Portanto, o tratamento prévio da superfície do esmalte foi proposto para otimizar sua eficácia. Material e Métodos: Este estudo objetivou avaliar a capacidade de remineralização do fluoreto com e sem pré-tratamento do esmalte com ácido fosfórico e nitrato de alumínio e a resistência do esmalte após novo desafio ácido. Vinte e quatro blocos de esmalte bovino foram obtidos e selecionados pela média inicial de microdureza de superfície (MS). Em seguida, MB foram artificialmente induzidas através de ciclagem DES-RE e os espécimes aleatorizados em dois grupos de acordo com o pré-tratamento do esmalte a ser avaliado (n=12): F (flúor gel acidulado 1,23% -APF -4 min) e P-Al-F (ácido fosfórico 37% -30s + nitrato de alumínio 0,05M 1min + APF por 4 min). Após o tratamento, um novo desafio ácido semelhante ao inicial foi realizado. Novas avaliações de MS foram obtidas em cada etapa. Os valores foram processados e a porcentagem de perda mineral da superfície (%PDS) foi obtida. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente por ANOVA dois critérios e teste de Tukey (p<0,05). Resultados: Não houveram diferenças entre os protocolos avaliados. Para ambos grupos, uma diferença significante entre as fases do estudo foi detectada: observouse uma queda no %PDS após o tratamento e aumento do %PDS após novo desafio ácido. Conclusão: O pré-tratamento do esmalte com ácido fosfórico associado com nitrato de alumínio promoveu efeito similar à aplicação isolada do APF na remineralização das MB artificiais, recuperando parcialmente a dureza de superfície. Após o novo desafio ácido, os dois grupos ofereceram resistência parcial. PAlAvRAS-ChAveCáries dental; Esmalte dentário; Fluoreto; Remineralização dentária. ABSTRACTObjective: The topical fluoride application is the main strategy to remineralize white spots lesions (WSL). It is assumed that increasing its retention in the surface can favor remineralization. Therefore, previous treatments of the enamel surface are purposed to optimize its efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate the remineralization capacity of the fluoride without and with the pre-treatment of the enamel with phosphoric acid and aluminum nitrate and then, the enamel acid-resistance after new acid challenge. Material and Methods: Twenty-four enamel bovine blocks were obtained and selected by means of initial surface microhardness (SMH) measurements. In sequence, WSL were artificially inducted by DE-RE cycling and randomized in two groups according to the enamel pretreatment to be tested (n=12): F (1.23% fluoride gel -APF-4min) and P-Al-F (37% phosphoric acid-30s + 0.05M aluminum nitrate 1min + APF-4min). After then, a new acid challenge was equally performed. Additional SMH assessments were performed in each step. The values were processed and the percentage of SH loss (%SHL) was obtain...

“…Thus, it has been suggested that the caries-preventive effect obtained with 10.6 μm could be the longer-lasting one. [8][9][10][11] In order to increase the caries-preventive effect of laser, researchers began to use it in combination with fluoride containing materials. These combinations seem to show the synergistic effect on enhancing enamel resistance.…”

“…A high concentration of fluoride seems to be more effective in in vitro models. In vivo clinical experimentations of different modalities of application (ionophoresis using 2% sodium fluoride solution, 1.23% acidulated phosphate fluoride gel application, and 5% sodium fluoride varnish application) seem to be equally www.intechopen.com effective in reducing the dimension of demineralised areas and increase microhardness (Lee et al, 2009). Glass ionomers applied on etched enamel have been observed to be transformed in vitro into enamel-like material when studied with SEM and EDAX analysis (Van Duinen et al, 2004) as well as other compounds containing fluoride such as TiF and aminated Fluoride (Am.F).…”
