The aim of the present study is to assess the effect of fluoride varnishes supplemented with nano-sized sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) on enamel erosion and on enamel erosive wear, using in vitro and in situ protocols. For this purpose, the study will be divided into 3 subprojects, in which blocks of bovine dental enamel will be used as substrate. The varnishes to be tested are: (A) Placeb…
Xylitol and Erythritol are compounds of natural origin, regarded as potential sources of therapeutic agents, and which can be used in the control of dental caries. However, the mechanism by which these compounds act in biofilm and in the fluid biofilm is still uncertain. Thus, the present study aims to assess the the effect of dentifrices containing sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP), xylitol,…
The aim of the present study will be to evaluate the effect of fluoride varnishes supplemented with sodium trimetaphosphate nanoparticles (TMP) on bovine enamel demineralization in vitro. Bovine dental enamel blocks (n = 48) will be selected by surface hardness (SH) and randomly divided into 4 experimental groups, according to the varnishes to be tested: (a) Placebo (without F or TMP - ne…
This study aims to evaluate fluoride (F) concentrations in saliva, as well as analyze F intake after brushing with dentifrices containing different fluoride concentrations (0, 550 e 1100 ppm F, neutral pH), applied on different quantities (approximately 0,04, 0,16 e 0,32 g). Volunteers (n=24, 2-3 years old) will be randomly assigned into 6 experimental groups, according to the possible co…
