The Erosive Potential of Some Flavoured Waters

Abstract: ObjectivesTo assess the erosive potential of a number of readily available flavoured waters in the laboratory.MethodsThe erosive potential was assessed by measuring the pH, neutralisable acidity and ability to erode enamel. These were compared to an orange juice positive control.ResultsThe pH of the flavoured waters ranged from 2.64–3.24 with their neutralisable acidity ranging from 4.16–16.30 mls of 0.1M NaOH. The amount of enamel removed following 1-hour immersion in the drinks ranged from 1.18–6.86 microns.… Show more

“…To put the results of this study in context, a recent study using the same methodology 14 showed Tropicana natural orange juice to have a mean initial pH of 3.68, and a mean neutralizable acidity of 19.68 mL. All five dilutable fruit drinks, even when extremely dilute (1 : 15), had a lower pH than Tropicana.…”

“…Even when diluted, therefore, concentrates with high levels of citric acid will retain a significant erosive potential. To put the results of this study in context, Rees et al 14 . found that immersion in Tropicana resulted in a mean loss of 3.34 µm of enamel.…”

“…In recent years there has been an enormous increase in the beverages consumption, and this is no longer confined to children but is being carried forward into adult life [10,11] hence, in vitro investigation was done to assess the erosive potential of 4 commercially available beverages, chlorhexidine mouthwash, milk and human saliva (negative control) on enamel and root surface. The beverages included in the present study contain mainly either citric acid or phosphoric acid.…”

“…However, it is now accepted that both pH and TA are indicators of the erosive potential of a foods or beverages [5,9]. The pH value corresponds to the equilibrium measure of the hydrogen ion concentration, but it gives no indication of the overall acidic content of the beverage or food [10]; whereas TA gives a measure of all free hydrogen ions available to cause erosion [11]. Both the pH and TA can be utilized to analyze the acidic property of foods and beverages by a simple method.…”

“…Dentine hypersensitivity is normally caused by exposure of dentine to external stimuli such as temperature changes, air, sour drinks, and sweet drinks. [ 1 ] Enamel and cementum, which normally cover the exposed dentine, can become damaged due to attrition, abrasion, erosion, abfraction, and gingival recession. [ 2 3 ] Dentine hypersensitivity occurs more frequently in the cervical region of the tooth because the cementum in this area is very thin, ranging from 20 to 50 μm.…”
