Karakterisasi Pasta Gigi Berbahan Abrasif Hidroksiapatit (HAp)

Abstract

Tootpaste was a product for dental care to clean, beautify and replace the minerals decay from the dent surface. To prevent the damage of the mineral layers on the surface, added the remineralitation compounds in the formula of the toothpaste. The remineralitation agents commonly add was CaCO3 and CaPO4, during the technological development the calcium compounds added was calcium in nano size like Hydroxyapatite (HAp). In this study produced the contains abrasive HAp and CaCO3 with the mix ratio CaCO3, 50:50 (HAp:CaCO3) and HAp. The characterization to the toothpaste with CaCO3 abrasive showed the Calcium contains 21,10 ± 0,0577%; dispersibility 936,37 ± 39,42gcm/s; pH 8,3 ± 0,00; and viscosity 25 ± 0,00 P.a. The toothpaste with CaCO3:HAp (50:50) abrasive showed the Calcium contains 27,03 ± 0,0333%; dispersibility 931,93 ± 22,62gcm/s; pH 8,8 ± 0,00; and viscosity 27 ± 0,00 P.a. The toothpaste with HAp abrasive showed the Calcium contains 27,67 ± 0,0882%; dispersibility 987,33 ± 39,50gcm/s; pH 8,9 ± 0,00; and viscosity 27,5 ± 0,00 P.a. The contamination of microbiology did not found in all of the toothpastes along the storage. Based on the entire organoleptic test against the toothpastes, the formula of toothpaste with the mix of CaCO3:HAp was les liked.

The Potential of Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste towards the Hypersensitive Tooth

“…To prevent damage to the mineral layer on the teeth, remineralization components were added to toothpaste in the form of calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, and even nano calcium such as Hydroxyapatite (HA). 7 Ebadifar et al (2017) added that toothpaste containing nano-hydroxyapatite was more effective than toothpaste that did not contain nanohydroxyapatite for tooth remineralization, excellent and highly compatible with bones and teeth.Hydroxyapatite is a ceramic material composed of calcium phosphate which has high biocompatibility and is non-toxic and is an integral part of bone and tooth tissue. 38 Kulal et al (2016) stated that toothpaste with nano-hydroxyapatite was effective against dentinal tubular occlusion.…”

“…Symptoms of pulp inflammation in this case are not specific but in the case of exposed dentin, the complaint can be considered as localized reversible inflammation. 7 The occurrence of individual dentin hypersensitivity can be determined using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) index. The VAS index is an index that is used to determine a person's level of pain visually by looking at it objectively and subjectively.…”

“…To prevent damage to the mineral layer on the teeth, remineralization components are added to toothpaste in the form of calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, and even nano calcium such as Hydroxyapatite (HA). 7 Hydroxyapatite which has the chemical formula of Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 is synthesized from rich components. 9 The hydroxyapatite synthesis method can be classified into the precipitation method and the sol gel method.…”

Synthesis of porous Hydroxyapatite (HAp) from Laying Chicken Waste Eggshells

“…HAp can be synthesized from the raw materials with high Calcium contained by Base Precipitation Method [23]. The raw materials referenced as HAp sourcer were Limestones [10,23], waste animals bones [23,41], Molluscan shells [1,13,14,25], and Eggshells [5,11,21,33,42,45]. Those raw materials selected as HAp sources because the main minerals build the materials were Calcium (Ca) and Phosphorus (P) [23,29,34,39,40], those two minerals need in the HAp synthesis process because those minerals also the main minerals build the chemical structure of HAp [29,30].…”

“…HAp is called bioceramics materials because it is used as Bone Filler, Bone Implant, Bone Graft, and remineralising agent [2,10,29,30]. Apart from similarity, HAp also initiated as reparation / remineralitation compounds for hard tissues [12,15,44] because it has biodegradability, biocompatible, and low toxicity characteristics [29,30,40]. The limited amount of bone donors in stock and supply was the main reason of synthetic and producing of HAp compounds [10,23,30].…”
