NCT04730908

Brief Summary

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate in vivo dentifrices containing different active ingredients in fluoride (F) retention in saliva and dental biofilm. Material and methods: The dentifrices used in the study were: G1- Daily Regenerator Dentalclean Neutral (RDCN); G2- Sensodyne Repair \& Protect (SRP); G3- Daily Regenerator Dentalclean Acid (RDCA), G4- Colgate Total Daily Repairc (CTDR). A double-blind, randomized crossover clinical study was conducted with eighteen residents of a city without a water fluoridation program. Biofilm and saliva samples were collected 1h and 12h after the last brushing for biofilm and, 1 to 60 minutes and 12 hours for saliva. The concentrations of F in saliva and biofilm were analyzed by specific electrode using the hexamethyldisiloxane facilitated diffusion technique (HMDS). Data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni test (p \<0.05). Area under the curve (AUC) was calculated for saliva data. Result: No significant difference was observed between the groups regarding the retention of F in saliva. However, the largest area under the curve values in saliva were found for groups G3 and G4. The highest median values of F-biofilm were found in G3 for 1h and 12h collection times. Conclusion: The toothpaste containing Refix (RDCA) technology presented the most promising results for fluoride retention in oral exposure biomarkers.
