Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the erosive effects of acids flowing with different velocities and duration on dentin previously pre-treated with distilled water or human saliva. METHODS: Bovine dentin surfaces were submitted to a 10 min demineralisation with hydrochloric or citric acid (pH 2.3, 37 degrees C) in an artificial mouth at flow rates of 3, 2.25, 1.5, 0.75 or 0.15 ml/min or in 30 ml of the respective acid without movement (each subgroup n=16 specimens). Prior to the demineralisation, half of the specimens of each group were either pre-treated with distilled water or human saliva for 120 min. After 2, 5 and 10 min demineralisation, profilometric traces of dentin loss were performed perpendicular to the direction of acid flow at three sites (A-C) with intervals of 500 microm. The first profile (A) was taken in a distance of 1.5 mm from the acid starting to flow over the sample. Thus, median dentin loss at each site was calculated and statistically analysed by five-way ANOVA. RESULTS: Dentin loss increased with increasing acid flow rate and demineralisation time and was higher for demineralisation with citric acid compared to hydrochloric acid. For given flow rates of 0.15 to 3 ml/min, measurement of dentin loss yielded highest values for site A and decreasing values for sites B and C. For all groups, no significant differences of dentin loss were observed between specimens pre-treated with distilled water or human saliva. CONCLUSION: Under the conditions of this study, both duration of demineralisation and acid flow rate but not pre-treatment with distilled water or saliva influence the extent of dentin erosion.
