In situ remineralizing effect of fluoride varnishes containing sodium trimetaphosphate

Abstract: The reduction in the subsurface lesion area of enamel treated with the TMP-containing varnish implies that cavities would take longer to develop or might not develop at all depending on individual factors, resulting in lower net caries increments at individual and population levels.

“…The varnish is also the agent of choice in function of its easy application and safety compared with other topical fluoride agents such as gels and rinses 27) . And a recent in situ study has found that fluoride varnish (5% NaF) could significantly remineralize the enamel and provide 50.1% surface hardness recovery 28) . Though the mechanical protection of varnish coating may be removed by toothbrushing or mastication in the oral cavity, it may also be expected that this loss will occur to a lesser extent in grooves and furrows in the approximal tooth surfaces 26) .…”

“…Sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) has recently been shown to promote a synergistic remineralizing effect both in vitro 1 and in situ 2 when added to fluoride (F) varnishes. However, considering the complex interactions between F and TMP and the scarcity of studies assessing the association between these compounds in varnish formulations, investigating the patterns of the release of F and TMP from these products would be informative, as interactions between NaF and TMP salts, as well as among other varnish components, could potentially affect the efficacy of the products.…”

“…On the other hand, the capacity of TMP to enhance the remineralizing effect of 500 ppm F mainly in depth ( fig. 2 b, table 2 : IH R , zone B) can also be related to the ability of TMP in reducing the deposition of CaF 2 Manarelli et al, 2015]. Such an effect might understate the obstruction of enamel pores, thus facilitating ion diffusion into enamel.…”

“…Such an effect might understate the obstruction of enamel pores, thus facilitating ion diffusion into enamel. In the same way, TMP adsorbed on enamel binds to Ca 2+ and CaF + ions [Takeshita et al, 2015;Manarelli et al, 2015], which produces a direct impact on calcium, phosphate and fluoride uptake by enamel ( table 1 ). Finally, as an in situ model was used and given that enamel remineralization was significantly enhanced for the 500 ppm F + TMP group in comparison with 500 ppm F ( table 2 ), the present results showed that this phosphate can also be adsorbed by organic and inorganic components on the acquired pellicle [Nordbö and Rölla, 1972], even if the exact mechanisms of such interactions remain unknown.…”
