1. Non caries tooth loss Dental erosion Chu CH Faculty of Dentistry The University of Hong Kong
2.
3. Abrasion is the loss of enamel and dentine by wear from surfaces other than teeth (e.g. tooth brushing).
4.
5. Dental erosion Effects: Enamel thinning with exposure of dentin Unsightly appearance of teeth Tooth hypersensitivity Reduced chewing function. 5. Pulpal involvement in advanced cases
6. Dental erosion Significance: Aging population with more elderly retaining their teeth, Change in dietary habits (Cola drinks, red or white wine and fruit juices)
7. Dental erosion Prevalence Limited longitudinal data are available 5% Finnish (Jarvinen et al., 1991) 7% Nigerians (Oginni and Olusile, 2002) 13% Swedish (Lussi et al., 1991) 15% Norwegian (Myklebust et al., 2003) 46% Chinese adults (Hou et al., 2005) 6%Chinese prechildren (Luo et al., 2005) No data in Hong Kong
8. Dental erosion Questionnaire telephone survey (2008) Faculty of Dentistry & Social Science Research Center, University of Hong Kong Chinese adults Website http://hkupop.hku.hk/
12. Q: How often would you consume non-water beverage and food like soft drinks, coffee, snacks, fruits, dessert, etc. in a day? 36% Successful Samples:494 36% Respondents* ate at least 6 times per day (Average 5.4 Times )
13. 68% Respondents had dental check-upat least once every year Q: On average, how often do you go for dental check up in a year ? Average: 0.92 times SD:0.03 Base:499 Successful Samples:519
14. Dental erosion 73% did not know symptoms of erosion 70% had never heard about erosion 53% could not differentiate erosion and caries This lack of public knowledge about erosion has also been reported in the UK (Dugmore and Rock, Community Dent Health; 20:223-7)
23. Dental erosion All carbonated drinks, including soda and some energy drinks, contain a lot of acid such as citric, phosphoric and carbonic acids which can rapidly dissolve enamel on teeth.
40. Definition of Dentine Hypersensitivity Dentine hypersensitivity is characterized by short, sharp pain arising from exposed dentine in response to external stimuli which cannot be ascribed to any other form of dental defect or disease. Correct differential diagnosis is key for management success! Addy M.,Int. Dent.J, 2002, Canadian Advisory Board, J of Can.Dent.Assoc., 2003
41. Aetiology - Mechanism of Hypersensitivity Explained by Brännström’s Hydrodynamic Theory Short sharp pain associated with A-beta and A-delta nerve fibers stimulation Two phases* development: Lesion Localisation Lesion Initiation GINGIVAL RECESSION LOSS OF ENAMEL LESION LOCALISATION Exposure of dentine LESION INITIATION Opening of dentine tubules (removal of cementum or smear layer) *Dababneh et all. Br Dent J, 1999
42. Aetiology - Mechanism of Hypersensitivity GINGIVAL RECESSION LOSS OF ENAMEL Abrasion Attrition Abfraction Erosion Fracture Incorrect tooth-brushing or flossing Periodontitis Periodontal procedures Gingival trauma (picking, hard foods) Crown preparation
44. Desensitising of nerves – mechanism and clinical evidence* Buffering of membrane potential with potassium (K+) ions Symptomatic action Potassium salts delivered in at home products (toothpastes) Potassium nitrate (5%) Potassium citrate (5,5%) Potassium chloride (3,75%) Reduction in yield sensitivity measures – minimum 2 weeks of 2/day use Pain relief - 4-8 weeks of 2/day use Equivocal data on actual efficacy * Literature review in Cummins, J Clin Dent, 2009
45. Dentine tubule occlusion - mechanism and clinical evidence* At home use (Toothpaste) - precipitation of insoluble metal compounds. Strontium chloride – reported less effective than potassium salts** Stannous fluoride – secondary effects (staining)** In office use Established desensitisers with HEMA or oxalate seal Desensitising pastes with calcium sodium phosphosilicate or CPP-ACP technologies High fluoride containing products with sensitivity relief as secondary benefit only (varnishes, toothpastes and gels) *Literature review in Orchardson, JADA, 2006; ** Cummins, J Clin Dent 2009
46. Dentine Hypersensitivity treatment options - Current State 2 widely used mechanisms* ** desensitising toothpaste recognized as the “first option” recommendation – effective but slow (4-8 weeks) pain relief * ** In office treatment approached usually for “severe cases”* ** Stated need for new tested treatment options that should effectively occlude dentine tubules and mimic the natural desensitising process***. *Orchardsson, JADA, 2006, ** Cummins, J Clin Dent 2009, ***Markowitz, J of Oral Rehab., 2007
47. Dentine Hypersensitivity treatment options - Current Needs Efficacy – fast, reliable action and long term effect Action based upon natural process of desensitisation Compatible with other active compounds No staining or other side effects Good taste Safe
48. Introducing a new technology Over several decades, the State University of New York (SUNY) studied the role of saliva in oral health under the leadership of Dr. Israel Kleinberg. Arginine was identified as a key component of saliva and important to oral health Ortek Company, in collaboration with SUNY, developed a novel technology for dentine hypersensitivity associating arginine with calcium carbonate Colgate acquired the technology from Ortek in July 2007, and further developed the formulation by including sodium fluoride

52. How does Pro-Argin™ Technology work against Dentine Hypersensitivity? Arginine promotes precipitation of calcium and phosphate ions to form a calcium-rich layer that plugs and seals the opening of dentine tubules. The plug shields dentine fluid from exposure to external stimuli. - - - Graphical representation, for illustration purposes only Pro-Argin™ Technology thus addresses the cause of dentine hypersensitivity.

64. Pro-Argin™ Technology – Mode of Action Chemical Analysis - ESCA Elementary analysis (by ESCA) of surface layer showed: Before treatment: high levels of carbon, oxygen and nitrogen, and low levels of calcium and phosphorus, consistent with demineralization of dentine and exposure of collagen matrix. After treatment: Increase in calcium, phosphorus and carbonate content confirms the composition of occluding layer deposited after application of the Pro-Argin™ Technology Decrease in nitrogen is due to coverage of collagen-containing dentine surface by occluding layer Increase in silicon is evidence that some silica from Pro-Relief™ Desensitising Polishing paste formula is deposited at the surface of dentine

79. Pro-Argin™ Technology – Mode of Action Hydraulic Conductance Hydraulic conductance (Pashley et al) is used to measure inhibition of fluid flow in dentine tubules Effective occlusion agents reduce flow Hydraulic conductance experiments were conducted with Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief™ Desensitising Polishing Paste (Pro-Argin™ formula)
80. Pro-Argin™ Technology – Mode of Action Hydraulic conductance Pro-Argin™ Technology significantly reduced fluid flow in dentine tublules
81. Pro-Argin™ Technology – Mode of Action Summary The arginine interacts with the calcium carbonate at physiological pH to form a positively charged agglomerate which is attracted by electrostatic forces to negative surfaces, including dentine This agglomerate promotes the formation of a calcium-rich mineral layer on the dentine surface to occlude the tubules. The occlusion protects dentinal fluid from exposure to external stimuli, thus stopping fluid movement in the tubules. This blocking of the fluid movement addresses the cause of pain and discomfort. The occluding layer resists acid attacks, such as provoked by certain acid beverages.
