Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tooth whitening and properties of an enamel surface after treatments with tooth bleaching agents that contained dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) and hydrogen peroxide (HP). Thirty specimens were obtained from fifteen premolar and were randomly divided into three groups (n=10): 1, 3.5% HP + 0 g DCPD; 2, 3.5% HP + 0.1 g DCPD; 3. 3.5% HP + 1 g DCPD. All groups were bleached 8 hours per day for 14 days. With increasing DCPD concentration, the pH values in the agents increased, making it less acidic. However, there was no statistically significant difference (p>.05). As the concentration of DCPD was increased, the concentration of Ca and P was also increased. In all groups, after the tooth whitening, the tooth color was found to have a value of $L^*$ (p<.05). All groups showed significantly decreased enamel microhardness compared to their baseline (p<.05). The percentage microhardness loss (PML) of the group A1 and A2 were significantly lower than that of group A3. The obvious variation of morphology was observed on enamel surfaces in group A1. Following an analysis of the constituents of enamel surface after bleaching, as DCPD content was increased, the amount of Ca and P was increased. In this study, the experimental results suggest that DCPD/HP agent less demineralization changes such as the erosion morphology and hardness loss without compromising whitening efficiency.

본 연구는 3.5% 과산화수소(hydrogen peroxide, HP)에 dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD)를 함유한 치아미백제가 치아 미백과 표면 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다. 발치한 건전한 소구치 30개를 치아 시편으로 하였고, 이 시편을 3군(A1, A2, A3)으로 나누었다(n=10). 3.5% HP에 DCPD를 0 g(대조군, A1), 0.1 g(A2), 1 g(A3)을 함유시켜 치아 미백제를 제조했다. 모든 군은 하루에 8시간 미백하여 14일 동안 반복하였다. 미백제의 pH 측정, 유도 결합플라스마 원자 방출 분광기(ICP-AES)를 이용한 원소분석을 실시하고, 법랑질의 색, 경도, 표면의 형태 및 무기질 성분을 측정하였고, ANOVA를 이용하여 분석하였다. 1. 치아미백제의 pH를 측정한 결과 DCPD를 함유한 치아미백제의 pH는 함유하지 않은 치아미백제의 pH에 비해 증가를 보였으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>.05). 2. 치아미백제의 무기질 함량을 측정한 결과 DCPD 농도가 증가할수록 칼슘과 인의 농도가 증가했으며, Ca/P 비는 1.1~1.2 정도로 나타났다. 3. 모든 군에서 $L^*$ 값은 미백 후가 미백 전에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 증가했다(p<.05). 4. 치아의 경도는 미백 후가 미백 전에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 미세경도의 감소를 보였다(p<.05). 하지만 DCPD함유량이 증가할수록 대조군에 비해 실험군의 미세경도 감소율이 적게 나타났다. 5. 미백 후 법랑질 표면의 형태는 대조군에서 표면의 다공성과 침식 현상이 보였으나(A1), DCPD 함유량이 가장 높은 군(A3)에서는 표면 변화가 나타나지 않았다. 6. 미백 후 법랑질 표면의 성분은 DCPD 함유량이 증가할수록 Ca, P 함량이 증가하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 DCPD를 함유한 3.5% HP의 치아미백제는 대조군과 동등한 치아미백 효과가 있고, pH를 상승시켜서 치아 표면의 탈회를 감소시키며 법랑질의 표면 형태와 성분 변화에 덜 영향을 줌으로써, 치아미백제의 구성성분으로 실용화할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
