Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: The protective effect of fluoride solutions against acidic challenge on enamel was tested in vitro using calcium- and profilometer analyses. METHODS: HF-, SnF(2)-, TiF(4)- and NaF solutions (0.1M F(-), with a pH of 2.0, 2.9, 1.5, 7.3, respectively) and H(2)O were tested on a total of 60 enamel specimens divided into 10 groups. Prior to and after F-treatment five groups were exposed for 1 min to 0.01 M citric acid, and the other five groups for 10 min to 0.1M citric acid. Enamel specimens were measured by profilometry at baseline and before and after each acidic challenge. [Ca] in the collected citric acid samples was measured by atom absorption spectroscopy (AAS). DeltaCa and Delta surface height were calculated for each specimen and the data were analysed using one-way ANOVA, Tukeys test and Pearson r correlation. RESULTS: AAS showed that the acidic F-treatments significantly reduced enamel dissolution for both the 1 min and 10 min acidic challenge. Profilometry showed no significant differences between the F-solutions for the 1 min groups. Significant differences could be seen between the fluorides for the 10 min groups and there was a large correlation between the profilometric and AAS results. In conclusion, all fluoride solutions reduced enamel dissolution when specimens were exposed to citric acid. CONCLUSIONS: The profilometer was not sensitive enough to measure the effects of the different fluorides against a low acidic challenge. AAS was able to show these differences and for the 10 min acidic challenge there was a good correlation between the results from the two methods.
