Resumo
The esthetics appearance is very important to social acquaintanceship and in psychological heath of the people,
especially when children are the subject. Because of these reasons patients and guardians they want and expect
from the dentists proceedings that can reduce or that eliminate the alterations in color of the teeth. The
microabrasion technique is used for this objective, in order to perform the superficial wear of dental enamel by
action of the mixture of acid pH material with abrasives particles. The aim of this study is quantify the damage
induced on enamel surface of primary teeth after microabrasion technique. In order to do so, 10 applications of
paste prepared (1:1) with 37% phosphoric acid (FGM) and pumice (SS White) were realized in labial surface
of primary incisor teeth, with a rubber cup inserted in a contra-angle slow-speed hand piece (12.000 rpm). The
time (10 seconds) and pressure (30g) were controlled. After each application of 10 seconds, the surface were
flushed by 20 seconds with spray air/water and air-dried. The specimens were analyzed by optical coherence
tomography (OCT), before, during and after the microabrasive proceedings, and images were also done, after 0,
3, 5, 7 and 10 applications. Results: The erosion depth measuredat 500 µm far for the rubber center was 7 (4) µm
after 3 application and 45 (14) µm after 10 applications. At 1000, 1500, and 2000 µm far from center it was 11
(6) µm and 50 (22) µm, 17 (10) µm and 65 (17) µm and 19 (11) µm and 93 (30) µm respectively. It was possible
to determine that, in this model, the erosion depth grows lineally with the number of applications; the erosion
rate was 3.9 (0.4), 5.6 (0.2), 7.1 (0.4) and 11.6 (0.9) for the same position describe previously. Conclusions: It
was concluded that erosion rate it is not uniform in the rubber area. It was possible to demonstrate that the
erosion depth grows linearly with the number of successive applications, and it is also grows linearly with the
distance to the rubber cup center.
