Abstract
This study aimed to compare the effect of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and fluoride varnish (NaF) on the Vickers microhardness (VHN) of enamel and dentin after radiotherapy and pH-cycling. Human premolars were cut longitudinally, embedded and serially polished. The VHN of enamel/dentin and irradiated enamel/dentin were evaluated. The irradiated specimens were treated with either NaF or SDF, subjected to pH-cycling then VHN test for 4 days. Consequently, they were subjected to energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. Radiation adversely affect enamel VHN (p<0.05), whereas dentin VHN was not affected (p>0.05). After pH-cycling, a significant decrease in dentin VHN was observed on day 2 for all groups, whereas enamel VHN was significantly decreased in the control group on day 4. SDF-treated enamel demonstrated higher VHN than that of NaF on day 3. Caries prevention effect of SDF and NaF were observed on enamel, where SDF was proved to be superior to NaF.
期刊介绍：
Dental Materials Journal is a peer review journal published by the Japanese Society for Dental Materials and Devises aiming to introduce the progress of the basic and applied sciences in dental materials and biomaterials. The dental materials-related clinical science and instrumental technologies are also within the scope of this journal. The materials dealt include synthetic polymers, ceramics, metals and tissue-derived biomaterials. Forefront dental materials and biomaterials used in developing filed, such as tissue engineering, bioengineering and artificial intelligence, are positively considered for the review as well. Recent acceptance rate of the submitted manuscript in the journal is around 30%.
