ABSTRACT
This study evaluated in vitro the effect of an experimental gel containing iron on the reduction of hydraulic conductance of dentin. Thirty-six 1-mm-thick dentin discs obtained from extracted human third molars were divided into 3 groups of 10 specimens each. The groups corresponded to the following experimental materials 1.23 percent acidulated phosphate fluoride gel, pH 4.1; 3 percent potassium oxalate gel, pH 4.1 (Oxa-Gel®); and iron sulfate gel (10 mmol/L FeSO4), pH 4.1. The gels were applied to dentin under the following conditions after 37 percent phosphoric acid and before 6 percent citric acid. Data were analyzed statistically by ANOVA and Tukey's test at 5 percent significance level. There was no significant differences (p<0.05) among the groups in any of the conditions for hydraulic conductance reduction, except for smear layer presence. The active agents reduced dentin permeability, but they produced significantly lower (p<0.05) reduction in hydraulic conductance when compared to presence of smear layer. The effectiveness in reducing dentin permeability was not significantly different (p>0.05) among the gels. This study suggests that the iron gel promoted reduction in dentin permeability comparable to that of the other agents and thus may be considered a good clinical alternative for the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity.
RESUMO
Este estudo objetivou avaliar in vitro o efeito do gel experimental contendo ferro na redução da condutividade hidráulica na dentina. Trinta e seis discos de dentina humana de 1 mm de espessura, foram obtidos de terceiros molares extraídos divididos em 3 grupos de 10 espécimes cada. Os grupos foram divididos nos seguintes grupos experimentais F- flúor gel a 1,23 por cento, pH 4,1; O- gel de oxalato de potássio a 3 por cento, pH 4,1; I- gel de sulfato ferroso FeSO4 a 10 mmol/L, pH 4,1. Os géis foram aplicados na dentina sob as diferentes condições após o ácido fosfórico a 37 por cento a antes do ácido cítrico a 6 por cento. Os resultados foram analisados por ANOVA e teste de Tukey, com nível de significância de 5 por cento. Todos os grupos (gel de flúor, oxalato de potássio e gel de ferro) não apresentaram diferenças significativas entre si para todas as condições testadas, exceto na presença da smear layer (p<0,05). Os produtos utilizados reduziram a permeabilidade dentinária, entretanto apresentaram baixa redução quando comparados à smear layer (p<0,05). Não houve diferença significativa na efetividade dos géis testados para reduzir a permeabilidade dentinária (p<0,05). Este estudo sugere que o gel de ferro promoveu redução na permeabilidade dentinária comparável à dos outros agentes e, portanto, pode ser considerada uma boa alternativa clínica para o tratamento da hipersensibilidade dentinária.
