“…Dental erosion may cause several clinical problems, such as dentin hypersensitivity and poor esthetic. A severe form of dental erosion can result in a shortening of teeth and a loss of vertical dimension of occlusion [ 6 , 9 ]. Several factors are known to contribute to dental erosion, particularly certain eating and drinking habits [ 6 , 13 ].…”

“…A severe form of dental erosion can result in a shortening of teeth and a loss of vertical dimension of occlusion [ 6 , 9 ]. Several factors are known to contribute to dental erosion, particularly certain eating and drinking habits [ 6 , 13 ]. Excessive consumption of acidic foods or drinks, as well as holding or swishing citrus fruits or soft drinks in the mouth before swallowing, can increase the risk of dental erosion [ 14 , 15 ].…”

“…The best way to prevent dental erosion is to minimize acid exposure. Thus, the main strategy for controlling and reducing dental erosion is educating individuals on healthy habits and raising awareness about modifying their diet or behaviors contributing to erosion [ 6 , 13 , 16 ]. Local preventive measures are also crucial, especially when dental erosion is severe and associated with a health issue that may require long-term medical treatment [ 6 , 13 , 15 , 17 , 18 ].…”

Objective To compare the protective effect of commercial stannous-containing mouth rinses on enamel erosion in a simulated 5-day in vitro cycling model. Materials and methods 81 human enamel specimens were embedded in resin blocks and divided into nine groups as follows; group 1: stannous fluoride (1000SnF2) toothpaste; groups 2,3, and 4 were the same as group 1 plus Elmex®, PerioMed™, and Meridol®, respectively, group 5: stannous fluoride (1450SnF2) toothpaste, groups 6, 7, and 8 were the same as group 5 plus Elmex®, PerioMed™, and Meridol®, respectively, group 9: negative control. An erosive challenge was induced with a 1 min hydrochloric acid (0.01 M, pH 2.2) treatment 3 times per day. Each cycle included immersing in the toothpaste slurry twice for two minutes and a one-minute rinse. The enamel slabs were immersed in artificial saliva between each erosive cycle and incubated overnight at 37 °C. Surface hardness loss and enamel loss were determined by Knoop surface hardness and non-contact profilometry, respectively. Finally, enamel surfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). Results All three mouth rinses had similar protective effects against erosion when using adjunct with 1000 SnF2 toothpaste (p > 0.05). With 1450 SnF2 toothpaste, Elmex® presented significantly lower surface hardness loss than Meridol® (p < 0.05). The combined use of Elmex® or PerioMed™ with toothpaste provided significantly better erosion protection than toothpaste alone, either 1000 or 1450 SnF2. In addition, 1000SnF2 toothpaste adjunct with mouth rinse is comparable to 1450 SnF2 toothpaste alone in preventing enamel erosion. Conclusion All three mouth rinses reduced enamel erosion. The additional use of a high concentration stannous containing mouth rinse with 1450 SnF2 toothpaste increases the protective effect against enamel erosion in vitro. Clinical significance To date, no standard protocol for preventing dental erosion is available. There are three stannous-containing mouth rinses on the market; however, no study compared their efficacy or indicated whether using adjuncts with anti-erosion toothpaste provides additional benefits. This study found that adding stannous mouth rinse to twice-daily toothpaste increases erosion protection.
