Abstract

Objectives

This study aimed to assess the impact of incorporating glass ionomer fillers of varying sizes on fluoride release, antiplaque properties, and the abrasive effects of toothpaste.

Materials and Methods

In this laboratory study, three toothpaste samples containing glass ionomer filler particles (0.5, 5 µm, and a hybrid combination of equal proportions of both fillers) were tested, along with a base toothpaste without fillers or fluoride and a commercial toothpaste (Colgate Total) as controls. Fluoride release was measured using a fluoride ion-selective electrode. Antiplaque properties were assessed by evaluating the effect of toothpaste on cultured saliva in tissue culture plates, with optical density measured using an ELISA reader. Abrasive effects were analyzed by changes in enamel thickness of bovine teeth using a three-body wear test. Data were analyzed with ANOVA and Tukey's tests in SPSS software at a 0.05 significance level.

Results

Toothpaste containing 0.5 µm fillers showed the highest fluoride release, whereas the lowest release was associated with 5 µm fillers. All formulations demonstrated antiplaque activity, though differences among filler-containing toothpastes were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Enamel abrasion differed significantly among the samples (p < 0.001), with the greatest abrasion observed for toothpaste containing 5 µm fillers and the least abrasion observed for 0.5 µm fillers.

Conclusions

Incorporating glass ionomer fillers into toothpaste formulations provides fluoride release and antiplaque effects comparable to those of commercial toothpaste. Smaller filler sizes enhance fluoride release and reduce abrasiveness, though filler size does not significantly influence antiplaque efficacy.

期刊介绍: Clinical and Experimental Dental Research aims to provide open access peer-reviewed publications of high scientific quality representing original clinical, diagnostic or experimental work within all disciplines and fields of oral medicine and dentistry. The scope of Clinical and Experimental Dental Research comprises original research material on the anatomy, physiology and pathology of oro-facial, oro-pharyngeal and maxillofacial tissues, and functions and dysfunctions within the stomatognathic system, and the epidemiology, aetiology, prevention, diagnosis, prognosis and therapy of diseases and conditions that have an effect on the homeostasis of the mouth, jaws, and closely associated structures, as well as the healing and regeneration and the clinical aspects of replacement of hard and soft tissues with biomaterials, and the rehabilitation of stomatognathic functions. Studies that bring new knowledge on how to advance health on the individual or public health levels, including interactions between oral and general health and ill-health are welcome.
