Abstract

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the preventive effect of different materials on dental erosion lesions by speckle coherent light scattering analysis. Forty bovine teeth were divided in the following groups (n = 10): 1) DURA-Preventive Treatment with Fluoride Varnish (Duraphat, Colgate-Palmolive); 2) ELX-Preventive treatment with Elmex (R) Erosion Protection Toothpaste (GABA International AG, Therwil, Switzerland); 3) MP-Preventive treatment with MI Paste (R) (GC America); and 4) REG-Preventive Treatment with Regenerate Enamel Science (TM) (Unilever). For all groups, each sample was divided into 3 areas: non-treatment (control); preventive treatment + erosive challenge; non-treatment + erosive challenge. The erosive challenge was carried out using Sprite (R) Zero soft drink (pH 2.58). After the erosive challenge, the samples were evaluated by speckle coherent light scattering method in the eroded area compared to the sound area. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference between eroded area with and without preventive treatment, however, there was no statistically significant difference among the different preventive materials tested.
