Laser-Matrix-Fluoride Effects on Enamel Demineralization

Abstract: Laser and fluoride have been shown to inhibit enamel demineralization. However, the role of organic matrix and their interactions remains unclear. This study investigated the interaction among CO2 laser irradiation, fluoride, and the organic matrix on the demineralization of human enamel. Twenty-four molars were selected and cut into halves. One half of each tooth was depleted of its lipid and protein. The other half served as a matched control. Each tooth half had two window areas, treated with a 2.0% NaF gel… Show more

“…The laser is applied to fluoride to increase fluoride diffusibility, which promotes greater ion absorption in the enamel or favors ion linking in the adjacent area. Other studies 61 recommend laser irradiation after fluoride application to promote melting as well as formation of solidified hydroxyapatite crystal layers combined with a fluoride layer formed by topical treatment prior to irradiation. In addition, this fluoride effect may be due to an increased fluoride uptake, because removing the organic matrix may render a greater crystal surface area for the binding of ions, such as fluoride and calcium ions.…”

“…A composição química e a morfologia do esmalte dental são modificadas pela ação do laser de CO 2 a ponto de aumentar a resistência ácida da superfície, sem alterar o aspecto macroscópico da estrutura dental FEATHERSTONE et al, 1998;KANTOROWITZ et al, 1998;HSU et al, 2001, TEPPER et al, 2004.…”

“…A fusão dos cristais hexagonais do esmalte irradiado com laser de CO 2 também foi observado por WU et al (2002) em MEV. Porém, outros estudos afirmam que a fusão da superfície do esmalte não é necessária para aumentar a resistência à desmineralização (McCORMACK et al, 1995;KANTOROWITZ et al, 1998;HSU et al, 2001 Quando um composto contendo alta concentração de flúor entra em contato com a superfície dental, ocorre dissolução da camada mais externa do esmalte (0,1 a 0,2 µm) e o cálcio dissolvido é precipitado na forma de CaF 2 (SAXEGAARD; RÖLLA, 1988;MORENO, 1990). Este composto serve como um reservatório de flúor para ser liberado durante os desafios cariogênicos (BRUUN;GIVSKOV, 1991;ØGAARD, 2001;TENUTA et al, 2008).…”

“…Para o controle da desmineralização do esmalte, o laser de CO 2 opera no modo não contato, podendo ser utilizado no modo contínuo (Hsu et al, 2000;Schmidlin et al, 2007;Souza-Gabriel et al, 2010;Sol et al, 2011) ou pulsado (Nelson et al, 1986;Nelson et al, 1987;Kantorowitz et al, 1998;Featherstone et al, 1998;Hsu et al, 2001;Nobre dos Santos et al, 2001;Klein et al, 2005;Rodrigues et al, 2006;Steiner-Oliveira et al, 2006;Tagliaferro et al, 2007;Rechmann et al, 2011a). Alguns parâmetros têm sido muito estudados, como comprimento de onda (Featherstone e Nelson, 1987;McCormack et al, 1995;Fried et al,1998;Kantorowitz et al, 1998;Featherstone et al,1998) e potência (Read et al, 1995;Hossain et al, 1999;Chin-Ying et al, 2004;Klein et al, 2005;Steiner-Oliveira et al, 2006), no entanto, os diferentes modos de emissão do pulso do laser de CO 2 ainda não foram estudados.…”
