Effect of CPP-ACP chewing gum previously to erosive demineralization The erosion-protective effect of CPP-ACP is controversial. This in situ study aimed to investigate the ability of CPP-ACP chewing gum to prevent a single event of erosive demineralization. Bovine enamel blocks (120), after selection (initial surface hardness) were randomly assigned to groups: GI-chewing gum with CPP-ACP, GIIchewing gum without CPP-ACP and Control group-salivary effect without stimulation (no gum). Nineteen volunteers participated on this study during 3 crossover phases of 2 h. On GI and GII, the volunteers wore intraoral palatal devices for 120 min and chewed a unit of the corresponding chewing gum on the last 30 min. On Control group the volunteer wore the appliance for 2 h, without chewing gum. On each phase immediately after the intraoral use, devices were extra orally immersed in cola drink for 5 minutes to promote erosive demineralization. The percentage of surface hardness loss was calculated. The data were analyzed by Repeated Measures ANOVA and Turkey’s test. Less enamel hardness loss was found after the use of chewing gum with (GI-32.7 %) and without (GII-33.5%) CPP-ACP when compared to salivary effect without stimulation (control39.8%) (p 0.05). The results suggest that the use of chewing gum immediately before an erosive demineralization is able to diminish the enamel hardness loss. However, the presence of CPP-ACP in the chewing gum cannot enhance this protective effect.
