Demineralisation of Permeable Hydroxyapatite with Alternating Water and Acidic Buffer: Scanning Microradiographic Study of Effect of Switching Period

Abstract: Permeable hydroxyapatite (HAP) blocks were exposed for equal times alternately to pH 4.0 buffer and water for 237 h. Rates of HAP loss with time (determined from changes in X-ray attenuation) were measured as a function of switching period τ (the time for a complete cycle) from 0.5 to 6 h and with a continuous buffer flow. The mean rate of HAP loss decreased markedly as τ increased, and for large τ was about half the rate for continuous buffer flow. We propose that demineralising conditions through the depth o… Show more

“…For all cases, prior to the intervention, the mineral mass loss from the hydroxapatite discs was linear with time as previously observed. 11 However, as shown from the results described in Figure 4 (A-D), the horizontal tendency indicated that the calcium release was almost ceased after the intervention. Figure 5 shows that there was a continuing drop in slope after 4 hours being treated with ClinPro White and calcium dissolution rate after treatment.…”

“…Given these findings, the influence of hydrogen peroxide and its action on ionic imbalance with mineral loss of the dental substrate are evident. 17,29 As a consequence of the current results, the null hypothesis should be rejected because 35% hydrogen peroxide bleaching gel potentiated the structural and histomorphologic changes induced by the accumulation of biofilm on the enamel surface. However, additional studies should be conducted, including the use of other materials and bleaching techniques, to minimize doubts and conclusions on the effects of bleaching healthy or demineralized dental tissue.…”

“…Isto significa que, neste momento, haverá uma menor quantidade de íons dissolvidos, deslocando o equilíbrio para a condição de perda mineral do substrato dentário. Para que ocorra a dissolução da hidroxiapatita o valor de pH crítico é abaixo de 5,5 e para a formação de lesões erosivas 2,9,10,12,20 . No estudo de Queiroz 14 o período selecionado para a formação de cárie in vitro foi o de 32 h em solução de pH 5,0.…”

“…A simulação in vitro do processo natural da cárie dentária pode ocorrer de diversas formas, principalmente por meio de soluções de pH ácido capazes de promover a remoção de minerais do esmalte 7 . Para que tais produtos possam induzir a formação de uma lesão de subsuperfície é necessário que haja saturação da solução em relação ao esmalte, evitando assim, o processo erosivo no tecido adamantino, que é uma característica das substâncias de baixo pH 11,12 . Além de soluções ácidas, autores citam o uso de formulações com pó de esmalte, géis e também o processo de ciclagem de pH, no qual as amostras são levadas a constantes trocas em meio ácido e básico, para a indução de cárie artificial 5,7,9,12 .…”
