Objectives:The objective was to assess the prevalence of all forms of dental fluorosis (DF), the severity, and the request for treatment as a measure of the burden of the condition among adult patients seen at a tertiary health facility in an endemic region of Northeastern Nigeria.Materials and Methods:This was a cross-sectional study that collected required information using a questionnaire from adult dental patients followed by dental examination to assess for DF.Statistical Analysis Used:Associations between sociodemographic distributions (age and gender) and prevalence were analyzed on the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences using the Chi-square test. Analysis was done at 95% confidence interval and the level of statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.Results:Three hundred and twelve patients (41.7%) were diagnosed with DF among the patients who resided in the endemic region with a calculated Community Fluorosis Index of 0.62. The mean age of the affected patients was 33.8 ± 9.2 years, with a majority of the patients in the 16–25 (47.4%) years' age group and a preponderance among females (P = 0.003). A greater proportion of the 312 diagnosed patients, 201 (64.3%), had fluorosis of esthetic concern, while only 9.3% sought treatment. Most of these patients that sought treatment had the severe form of the enamel defect.Conclusions:DF should be considered as a condition of public health importance in this region. It is necessary to conduct a community-based study and fluoride mapping of the northeastern region as well to determine other factors that may contribute to its occurrence in this population.

“…Dental fluorosis is much described about changes of bond strength to enamel. Recently researches have revealed the dentin changes induced by fluorosis (Vieira, Hancock, Dumitriu, et al, 2006;Vieira, Hancock, Limeback, Schwartz, & Grynpas, 2003), and a increasing risk of DH meanwhile (Tonguc et al, 2011). It was reported that microtensile bond strength decreased with the severity of fluorosis (Waidyasekera, Nikaido, Weerasinghe, & Tagami, 2007).…”

“…However, a high intake of fluoride during tooth formation has a reverse consequence and after eruption and during function, the fluorosed teeth with dentin exposure may show sensitivity. A study has shown that the subjects with fluorosis might suffer from tooth sensitivity more than those with normal dentition (Tonguc, Ozat, Sert, Sonmez, & Kirzioglu, 2011). High concentrations of fluoride reduced the mineralisation rate of the teeth and that dentin fluoride level was positively correlated with the size of the dentinal tubules (Vieira, Hancock, Dumitriu, Limeback, & Grynpas, 2006).…”

The objectives were to evaluate the efficacy of a filled adhesive named Prime & Bond NT (P&B NT) as the dentin desensitizer in occluding fluorosis dentinal tubules and compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of RelyX U200 self-adhesive resin cement (RXU) and RelyX Luting self-adhesive resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) before and after P&B NT pretreatment. 176 non-carious fluorosis were classified into four subgroups by the Thylstrup and Fejerskov index (TFI): normal group (TFI = 0), mild group (TFI = 1-3), moderate group (TFI = 4-5), severe group (TFI = 6-9). 160 composite cylinders (4 × 5 mm) were fabricated, then every severity of fluorosed dentin was subjected to four treatments: P&B NT + RXU (n = 40), RXU (n = 40), P&B NT + RMGIC (n = 40), RMGIC (n = 40). The specimens were immersed in water at 37°C for 24 hr first and half of them underwent 5,000 thermocycling before shear bond strength test. A factorial design (factorial 4 × 2 × 2 × 2) was developed to make statistical analysis. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis (n = 16) in cross section and longitudinal section view characterized the occlusion situation of dentinal tubules. P&B NT might occlude dentinal tubules as the dentin desensitizer for normal teeth and mild-moderate fluorosis. P&B NT significantly increased the SBS of RXU (p < .05) but had no statistical significance on the SBS of RMGIC (p > .05). RXU could benefit from P&B NT desensitization to achieve a better quality of adhesion.

“…Patients who have changes in their dentinal structures such as amelogenesis imperfect [16], fluorosis [17] and hypoplasias [18], have also reported a higher propensity to present dentinal hypersensitivity. Studies in this area, enabling the development of increasingly accessible products, would also favor these patients, for whom even quality of life is affected.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the action of desensitizing materials on bovine dentin. Four extracted healthy bovine molars were selected out of which 5 blocks from cervical region of each tooth were obtained, resulting in a 5x5mm final area. To compose the negative control group (group B), the samples were separated and not submitted to any treatment. For the positive control (Group A) the blocks were treated with 37% phosphoric acid. For allow to use the same dentin samples for all groups (2 controls and 3 test group), the experiment group contained twelve dentin surface blocks divided in 5 groups (n=4 in each group), as manufacturers' recommendations, there were used: Dessensibilize KF 2%-5% Potassium nitrate and 2% sodium fluoride (C); Fluoride Gel-2% sodium fluoride (D), Colgate Sensitive Pró-Alívio ® Arginine 8% (E) and Calcium carbonate-based toothpaste (F). The samples were analyzed in Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and used the ANOVA and Tukey tests (p<005). The number and diameters of dentinal tubules were compared across the various groups. The samples from group E had a higher quantity of deposits on the peritubular and intertubular dentin with most closed tubules. Although, the groups A and B presented more opened dentinal tubules. However, only A has deposited a substratum from the reaction with desensitizing materials on the peritubular and intertubular dentin indicating same closed tubules. The analysis of the diameters of the tubules showed significant differences in groups B and C when compared to the other groups. Research suggests that arginine, a natural amino acid found on the saliva, together with calcium carbonate, positively charged at physiological pH, are bound to the dentin surface, negatively charged, and help forming a calcium-rich layer on the dentin surface and within the dentinal tubules, sealing them. The arginine causes the occlusion of the dentinal tubules and, theoretically, such occlusion remains intact even after exposure to acids [10]. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to test, in vitro, the action of several desensitizing materials in bovine dentin, verifying its effectiveness in obliterating the dentinal tubules. Material and Methods The study were laboratorial, in vitro one with convenience sample. The products used were select among the most used by dental sensitivity and the bovine dentin by human similarity. Material selection Three products for professional use with a known desensitizing action have been tested. Product 1: Dessensibilize KF 2%-5% Potassium nitrate and 2% sodium fluoride (FGM) Product 2: Flutop Gel Neutro-2% sodium fluoride (SSWhite) Product 3: Colgate Sensitive Pró-Alívio ® Arginine-(8%) and Calcium carbonate-based toothpaste (Colgate) Sample preparation and experimentation This study used three experimental group and two controls (positive and negative one). The objective were the dentin substrate of the same tooth had be used in all groups to avoid a sample bias,
