Abstract

This study was to determine the efficacy in the remineralization on premary teeth following the application of toothpaste with and without sodium fluoride. All tooth were checked using microhardness tester and the calcium (Ca) and phosphorous (P) concentration by electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) analysis for the 4 weeks. The collected data was analysed using the statistical software program SPSS, 20.0. The applied enamel of premary teeth with 0.243% fluoridated toothpaste resulted in significant differences in the microhardness values (p>0.05). The Ca and P concentrations of applied premary teeth with fluoridated toothpaste were also significant difference in norm wt% (p>0.05). As a results, a increasing the surface microhardness of the premary teeth and providing a remineralizing effect by increased Ca and P concentrations.

본 연구에서는 0.243% 불화나트륨 함유된 어린이 불소치약을 적용하여 유치의 재광화 효과를 알아보기 위하여 유치의 법랑질 표면경도 측정과 치아의 무기질 성분인 Ca, P의 성분분석을 시행하여 분석한 결과, 0.243% 불화나트륨이 함유된 어린이 불소치약의 사용은 유치의 법랑질의 경도를 증가시켜 치질의 강도를 높이고, 치아의 주요성분인 Ca, P의 수치가 증가 됨을 확인하였다. 따라서 영유아 구강건강 관리를 위하여 불화나트륨이 함유된 어린이 불소치약으로 칫솔질을 하게 되면 유치의 효과적인 재광화가 이루지는 것으로 사료되며, 유치의 표면의 미세경도와 무기질 성분분석을 통하여 치질의 재광화 촉진에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.
