Analyzing the Effect of Different Polishing Materials on Different Dental Tissues by Micro-Computed Tomography
In Brief
An observational study evaluating AIR-FLOW® Master Piezon for Dental Plaque. Completed, enrolled 48 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The use of air-polishing device that operates by directing a fine slurry of pressurized air, water, and abrasive particles has become widespread in dentistry for polishing. The introduction of abrasive powders with different properties creates the need to evaluate the effects of these powders on dental hard tissues. This study was focused on the effect of sodium bicarbonate, glycine and erythritol air polishing on enamel and exposed root surface.

Timeline
Interventions
AIR-FLOW® Master Piezon is intended for use in the cleaning and polishing of teeth by the projection of water,air, and dental powders onto the tooth surface. The device removes dental plaque, soft deposits, and surface stains from pits, grooves, interproximal spaces, or smooth surfaces of teeth. This air polishing device was used for all powder instrumentations.
