In Vivo Study of Sucrose and Liquid Oral Pediatric Medicines of Long-term Effect on Dental Biofilm pH (SPMedicines)

March 24, 2013 updated by: Fabio Correia Sampaio, Federal University of Paraíba

Avaliação in Vivo do Potencial cariogênico e Erosivo de Bebidas e Medicamentos pediátricos líquidos Intra-orais

The aims of this study were to determine the sucrose and liquid oral pediatric medicines of long-term effect on dental biofilm pH to evaluate the cariogenic potential in vivo.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Te study was carried out with 12 subjects that were refrained from brushing their teeth for 28 h and did not eat or drink for at least 3 h prior to each appointment. Dental biofilm pH was measured in the cervical and proximal regions of anterior teeth with beetrode-type microelectrode coupled to a potentiometer. The biofilm was submitted nine paediatric medicines a long term and sucrose (negative control). pH measurements were taken at baseline to determine resting plaque pH and at time interval 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes.
