          Abstract

          Background

          To compare different anti-caries agents on microhardness and micromorphology of irradiated permanent dentin in vitro, and try to find the most effective agent to prevent radiation-dentin-destruction.

          Methods

          A total of 120 dentin samples were prepared from 60 human teeth and randomly divided into 8 groups ( n = 15), [ (1)] blank control [2]; irradiation control [3]; irradiation+ fluoride [4]; irradiation+ casein phosphate polypeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) [5]; irradiation+ CPP-ACP+ fluoride [6]; irradiation+ infiltration resin [7]; irradiation+ infiltration resin+ fluoride [8]; irradiation+ infiltration resin+ CPP-ACP. Seven samples of each groups were chosen randomly for microhardness test and eight for scanning electron microscope observation. Results: A decrease of microhardness ( P < 0.05) and an obvious morphological change were presented on dentin surface after radiotherapy. After applications of anti-caries agents, the morphological destructions were effectively restored. The infiltration resin plus fluoride group (56.00 ± 4.02 Kg/mm 2), infiltration resin plus CPP-ACP group (56.05 ± 3.69 Kg/mm 2), infiltration resin group (54.70 ± 4.42Kg/mm 2) and CPP-ACP plus fluoride group (53.84 ± 6.23Kg/mm 2) had the highest dentin microhardness value after radiotherapy, and no statistically significant difference were found between them.

          Conclusions

          Infiltration resin, CPP-ACP, fluoride and their pairwise combination can effectively prevent radiation-dentin-destruction. Among them, infiltration resin with CPP-ACP, infiltration resin with fluoride, CPP-ACP with fluoride, and infiltration resin have the most protective effects on irradiation-dentin-destructions.

          Remineralization potential of fluoride and amorphous calcium phosphate-casein phospho peptide on enamel lesions: An in vitro comparative evaluation

          Aim: This in vitro study was conducted on enamel blocks of human premolars with the aim of evaluating the remineralization potential of fluoride and ACP-CPP and the combination of ACP-CPP and fluoride on early enamel lesions. Materials and Methods: Fifteen intact carious free human premolars were selected. The coronal part of each tooth was sectioned into four parts to make 4 enamel blocks. The baseline SMH (surface microhardness) was measured for all the enamel specimens using Vickers microhardness (VHN) testing machine. Artificial enamel carious lesions were created by inserting the specimens in demineralization solution for 3 consecutive days. The SMH of the demineralised specimens was evaluated. Then the four enamel sections of each tooth were subjected to various surface treatments, i.e. Group 1- Fluoride varnish, Group 2- ACP-CPP cream, Group 3- Fluoride + ACP-CPP & Group 4- Control (No surface treatment). A caries progression test (pH cycling) was carried out, which consisted of alternative demineralization (3hours) and remineralization with artificial saliva (21 hours) for five consecutive days. After pH cycling again SMH of each specimen was assessed to evaluate the remineralization potential of each surface treatment agent. Then, to asses the remineralization potential of various surface treatments at the subsurface level, each enamel specimen was longitudinally sectioned through the centre to expose the subsurface enamel area. Cross-sectional microhardness (CSMH) was evaluated to assess any subsurface remineralization Results: Statistical analysis using one-way ANOVA followed by multiple comparisons test was applied to detect significant differences at P ≤ 0.05 levels between various surface treatments at different phases. Conclusions: With in the limits, the present study concludes that; ACP-CPP cream is effective, but to a lesser extent than fluoride in remineralizing early enamel caries at surface level. Combination of fluoride and ACP-CPP does not provide any additive remineralization potential compared to fluoride alone. Fluoride, ACP-CPP and their combination are not effective in remineralizing the early enamel caries at the subsurface level.

              Masking of white spot lesions by resin infiltration in vitro.

              The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the ability of one commercial and five experimental infiltrating resins (infiltrants) to camouflage enamel white spot lesions immediately after resin infiltration and after a staining period. In each of 120 bovine enamel samples, two artificial caries lesions were created (windows A and C; pH=4.95, 50 days), whereas two windows were protected serving as sound controls (B and D). After etching windows C and D (37% phosphoric acid), specimens were randomly allocated to 6 groups. Either one of 5 experimental infiltrants or a commercial infiltrant (Icon, DMG) (refractive indices 1.50-1.55) was applied and light cured. After half of each specimen was polished, samples were remineralized (pH=7.0) and stained with tea and red wine for 50 days. Photographic images after various treatment steps were obtained. Color differences (ΔE) of untreated (A) and treated lesions (C) as well as infiltrated sound enamel (D) were compared with untreated enamel (B). All infiltrants showed significantly better color match with sound enamel (median ΔE [25th/75th percentile]: 2.2 [1.5/3.1]) than untreated controls (9.3 [8.0/10.9]) (p 0.05). Staining was significantly reduced for polished infiltrated lesions compared to untreated or infiltrated unpolished lesions (p<0.001). Resin infiltration is suitable to mask artificial white spot lesions. Polished infiltrated lesions are resistant to staining in vitro. Resin infiltration is a micro-invasive approach to camouflage post-orthodontic white spot lesions. Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
