Abstrakt: Purpose: To examine the delivery of stannous fluoride to subgingival sulci following toothpaste use in a clinical population.
Methods: This was a controlled, single-site study. 23 subjects with at least 20 dental pockets, 2-4 mm with bleeding, who had not used a stannous fluoride dentifrice in the last 3 months were enrolled. After a 2-week washout period, 20 subjects returned for a baseline visit. They were instructed to refrain from brushing the night before the baseline visit. GCF samples were taken from up to 10 sites identified as sampling sites. Subjects were then given a 0.454% stannous fluoride dentifrice and soft manual toothbrush and asked to brush for 1 minute. 30 minutes after brushing, GCF was re-sampled. Subjects continued using the stannous fluoride dentifrice and soft manual toothbrush at home, twice daily for 2 weeks, in place of their usual hygiene products. At Days 1 and 14, subjects returned to the site, and 12 hours post-brushing GCF samples were taken. The samples were analyzed by ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry). A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was performed to determine the difference between post-baseline visits and baseline. Statistical tests were 2-sided using a 5% significance level.
Results: 20 subjects completed the trial. Significant levels of tin, a marker for stannous fluoride, were detected 30 minutes after brushing at sampling sites of 2-4 mm. The median tin level in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was 24.59 ng/µl, which was highly significant versus baseline (P< 0.0001). Tin levels sampled in GCF 12 hours after brushing on Days 1 and 14 were highly significant versus Baseline (P< 0.0001), showing an increasing trend with continued use.
Clinical Significance: Stannous fluoride was found to penetrate sampling sites from 2-4 mm and was retained for 12 hours. Subgingival uptake and retention of stannous fluoride following toothbrushing may play a role in detoxification effects on microbial biofilms and may contribute to the therapeutic efficacy of stannous fluoride dentifrices in promoting gingival health.
