Abstract
The aim of this study was to quantify, in vitro, the formation of CaF2 after the application of three fluoridated gels: one neutral, one acidulated and another highly acidulated, on a bovine enamel dental surface treated with a Dijkman's demineralizing solution (1990). 145 sections were utilized, obtained from 145 sound teeth and divided into seven groups: C (enamel without treatment); FN1 (enamel demineralized and treated with neutral gel for 1 minute); FN4 (enamel demineralized and treated with neutral gel for 4 minutes); FFA1 (enamel demineralized and treated with acidulated gel for 1 minute); FFA4 (enamel demineralized and treated with acidulated gel for 4 minutes); FAA1 (enamel demineralized and treated with highly acidulated gel for 1 minute) and FAA4 (enamel demineralized and treated with highly acidulated gel for 4 minutes). The formation of CaF2 was analyzed by SEM and chemically by Caslavska's method (1975). The average and standard deviations from the groups studied were respectively: C-0.63; 0.38; FN1-23.06; 16.52; FFA1-54.11; 49.00; FAA1-43.87; 32.66; FN4-34.92; 23.00; FFA4-67.91; 42.36; FAA4-56.03; 38.96. (Mann-Whitney non-parametric test). The time of application did not interfere in the CaF2 formation from the acidulated and highly-acidulated gels. A minor concentration of fluoride and amount of pH from highly-acidulated gel did not affect the higher formation from the CaF2 in relation to the acidulated gel in both cases when the application was evaluated.
