In addition to its role as a remineralizing agent in preventing dental caries, calcium product (CPP-ACP) delivered as a mousse (Tooth Mousse, TM) can reduce erosion of enamel and dentine. The aim of this study was to determine whether CPP-ACP could also reduce erosive tooth wear involving toothbrush abrasion.
Flat, polished enamel and dentine specimens (n=72) were subjected to 10 wear regimes, with each regime involving erosion in 0.3% citric acid (pH 3.2) for 10 min followed by toothbrush abrasion in a slurry of fluoride-free toothpaste and artificial saliva (1:3 ratio by weight) under a load of 2N for 200 cycles. The specimens were immersed in artificial saliva for 2h between wear regimes. In the experimental group 1, TM (containing CPP-ACP) was applied at the beginning of each wear episode for 5 min whereas TM- (without CPP-ACP) was applied in the experimental group 2. No mousse was applied in the control group.
TM significantly reduced enamel wear (mean+/-S.E., 1.26+/-0.33 microm in the experimental group 1 vs 3.48+/-0.43 microm in the control group) and dentine wear (2.16+/-0.89 microm in the experimental group 1 vs 10.29+/-1.64 microm in the control group), and dentine wear was significantly less in the experimental group 1 than in the experimental group 2 (5.75+/-0.98 microm).
The finding that TM reduced erosive tooth wear involving toothbrush abrasion, probably by remineralizing and lubricating eroded tooth surfaces, may have implications in the management of tooth wear.
除了作为预防龋齿的再矿化剂发挥作用外,以慕斯形式提供的钙产品(酪蛋白磷酸肽 - 无定形磷酸钙,CPP - ACP)(护齿慕斯,TM)可以减少牙釉质和牙本质的侵蚀。本研究的目的是确定CPP - ACP是否也能减少涉及牙刷磨损的侵蚀性牙齿磨损。
将扁平、抛光的牙釉质和牙本质标本(n = 72)进行10种磨损模式处理,每种模式包括在0.3%柠檬酸(pH 3.2)中侵蚀10分钟,然后在无氟牙膏和人工唾液的浆液(重量比1:3)中,在2N负荷下进行200次循环的牙刷磨损。在不同磨损模式之间,将标本浸入人工唾液中2小时。在实验组1中,每次磨损开始时应用TM(含CPP - ACP)5分钟,而在实验组2中应用不含CPP - ACP的TM - 。对照组不应用慕斯。
TM显著减少了牙釉质磨损(实验组1平均±标准误为1.26±0.33微米,对照组为3.48±0.43微米)和牙本质磨损(实验组1为2.16±0.89微米,对照组为10.29±1.64微米),并且实验组1的牙本质磨损显著低于实验组2(5.75±0.98微米)。
TM减少了涉及牙刷磨损的侵蚀性牙齿磨损,可能是通过对被侵蚀的牙齿表面进行再矿化和润滑,这一发现可能对牙齿磨损的管理有影响。
