Abstract

Prophylaxis is an effective method for preventing dental caries and periodontal diseases. This in-vitro study evaluated changes in the roughness of the immature enamel surface following different prophylaxis methods. The crowns of 35 extracted third molars were sectioned buccolingually to obtain buccal and lingual halves. Seventy samples were mounted in acrylic blocks and randomly allocated to seven groups (n = 10 per group): Group 1 (Golchai paste/Rubber cup), Group 2 (Morvabon paste/rubber cup), Group 3 (Sina paste/Rubber cup), Group 4 (Rubber cup-only), Group 5 (Brush-only), Group 6 (Golchai paste/brush), and Group 7 (Golchai paste-double amount/ higher speed rubber cup). Prophylaxis was performed for 3 s using a handpiece at 3000 rpm with 200 g pressure. The untreated half of each sample served as a control. A non-contact profilometer was utilized to evaluate the surface roughness. Statistical analyses were conducted employing ANOVA, Tukey's post-hoc test, paired t-tests, and Wilcoxon tests (α = 0.05). ANOVA indicated a significant difference in surface roughness among groups (p-value = 0.008). Pairwise comparison showed that Golchai paste reduced surface roughness when applied with a rubber cup but increased it when used with a brush, with a statistically significant difference between the two methods. However, Golchai/rubber cup group was comparable to Morvabon/rubber cup and Sina/rubber cup groups. Within-group comparisons showed a significant reduction in surface roughness in Golchai/rubber cup group (p-value = 0.010), while Brush-only group exhibited a significant increase (p-value = 0.028). Among the tested methods, the combination of Golchai paste and a rubber cup produced the smoothest enamel surface. In contrast, using Golchai paste with a brush resulted in the roughest surface. Doubling the paste amount and increasing the handpiece speed did not significantly alter roughness. Based on these in-vitro findings, the use of a prophylaxis brush is not recommended for immature or newly erupted teeth, as it resulted in increased surface roughness. Future in-vivo studies are warranted to further investigate these effects in clinical settings.

预防性膏剂和应用技术对未成熟牙釉质表面粗糙度的影响:一项体外研究。
预防是预防龋齿和牙周病的有效方法。这项体外研究评估了不同预防方法后未成熟牙釉质表面粗糙度的变化。将35颗拔除的第三磨牙的牙冠以颊颌切开,得到颊颌和舌颌两半。将70个样品装在亚克力块中,随机分为7组(每组10个):1组(戈尔柴膏/橡胶杯)、2组(Morvabon膏/橡胶杯)、3组(Sina膏/橡胶杯)、4组(仅橡胶杯)、5组(仅刷)、6组(戈尔柴膏/刷)、7组(戈尔柴膏-倍量/高速橡胶杯)。使用手机夹,在200g压力下,以3000 rpm的速度进行3 s的预防。每个样本中未经处理的一半作为对照。采用非接触式轮廓仪评价表面粗糙度。统计学分析采用方差分析、Tukey事后检验、配对t检验和Wilcoxon检验(α = 0.05)。方差分析显示各组表面粗糙度差异有统计学意义(p值= 0.008)。两两比较表明,用橡胶杯涂抹果茶膏会降低表面粗糙度,而用毛刷涂抹果茶膏会增加表面粗糙度,两种方法的差异有统计学意义。而Golchai/橡胶杯组与Morvabon/橡胶杯组和Sina/橡胶杯组相当。组内比较显示,Golchai/rubber cup组的表面粗糙度显著降低(p值= 0.010),而只刷刷子组的表面粗糙度显著增加(p值= 0.028)。在所有的测试方法中,果茶膏和橡胶杯的结合产生了最光滑的珐琅表面。相比之下,用刷子使用果茶膏会产生最粗糙的表面。增加一倍的浆料量和提高机头速度并没有显著改变粗糙度。基于这些体外实验结果,不建议未成熟或新长出的牙齿使用预防性刷,因为它会导致表面粗糙度增加。未来的体内研究需要在临床环境中进一步研究这些影响。
