This study aimed to determine the effect of iontophoresis delivery of fluoride in stannous fluoride (SnF2) toothpaste on dentin permeability in human extracted third molars. For dentin permeability test, 26 dentin specimens were randomly divided into 4 groups; SnF2 without-iontophoresis (n = 10), SnF2 with-iontophoresis (n = 10), no SnF2 without-iontophoresis (n = 3), and no SnF2 with-iontophoresis (n = 3). The hydraulic conductance of dentin (HD) was measured after smear layer removal, immediate treatment, 7 days, and acid challenge. The other 26 specimens were also prepared under these different conditions to assess degree of dentinal tubule occlusions using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Percentage decrease of HD in SnF2 without-iontophoresis after immediate treatment, 7 days and acid challenge were 38.38 ± 13.61, 56.92 ± 17.22 and 33.07 ± 23.57%. The corresponding values in SnF2 with-iontophoresis were 42.16 ± 14.49, 62.35 ± 15.67 and 50.01 ± 12.60%, respectively. There was a significant difference between without- and with-iontophoresis groups after acid challenge (p < 0.05). For SEM, after 7 days, SnF2 with-iontophoresis showed deeper dentinal tubule occlusion (p < 0.05) and more resistance to acid challenge than SnF2 without-iontophoresis. No significant change was observed in groups of no SnF2 treatment. Cathode iontophoresis could enhance the effect of SnF2 toothpaste in decreasing dentin permeability and increasing resistance to acid challenge.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007478 Iontophoresis Therapeutic introduction of ions of soluble salts into tissues by means of electric current. In medical literature it is commonly used to indicate the process of increasing the penetration of drugs into surface tissues by the application of electric current. It has nothing to do with ION EXCHANGE; AIR IONIZATION nor PHONOPHORESIS, none of which requires current. Iontophoreses
D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D003804 Dentin The hard portion of the tooth surrounding the pulp, covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root, which is harder and denser than bone but softer than enamel, and is thus readily abraded when left unprotected.
