Definitions
- the first embodiment of the present invention relates to a teeth-coating method that protects teeth from caries and periodontal diseases along with giving color to them.
- the method includes three steps: create space into the teeth by etching them, apply the protecting and coloring substances and sealing of the teeth (optional).
- the protection is due to the blocking of the dental enamel minerals that exit from teeth in order to balance the pH of the tooth environment (anti- caries) and due to the low surface tension that these substances create in the enamel surface which make the enamel practically uncollonizable by the bacteria (anti-periodontal diseases).
- the coloring is due to the colors that these substances can have. By applying these substances, the teeth are practically painted in a desired color, at the same time that they are protected.
- the second embodiment of the present invention relates to the implantation of a material in the outer layer of the tooth enamel or dentin or cementum and involves an implantable material, polymer or ceramic, fixed in place by use of a dental laser or a flame.
- This method also includes three steps: the dental tissue is etched and dried, the material is applied into the tissue, the laser beam or the flame melts the material into the tissue and finally the irradiated spot is air dried.
- This method protects the teeth from dental caries and periodontal diseases, paints the teeth at a desired shade and the implantable material can be used as a filling material itself.
- the protection of the teeth from caries is due to the blocking of the dental minerals that exit the tooth in order to balance the pH of the tooth environment.
- the protection from periodontal diseases is due to the low surface tension that the implantable materials create in the enamel surface which make the enamel practically uncolonizable to the bacteria.
- the painting of the teeth is due to the shades that the implantable materials have and can be used to give the teeth a desired tint.
- a material with properties similar to the enamel or dentin or cementum can be used as a filling material itself in dental cavities.
- the shade of the teeth is a very important esthetic factor. Liquids like coffee and cola, use of tetracycline in pregnancy and in early childhood, aging, endodontic treatment and many other staining factors darken the teeth. To this problem, dental bleaching gives an answer. This technique, though, has several defects. Rebound of the shade, sensitivity of the tooth, existing bleaching materials do not bleach composite restorations or, in some cases they have no results at all.
- the interface between the restorative material and the tooth is a well studied field. Many compounds like composites, ceramics or even amalgam are in use today having the same problems: the microleakage and the wear of the restoration. These problems arise from the difference of the properties between the tooth tissues and the restorative materials. Different coefficient of linear thermal expansion, different hardness, different tear strength are some of the most important factors that lead the restoration to failure.
- the co-operation with the patient includes oral hygiene for the plaque control (brushing, flossing, fluoride rinses, gels) and dietary control. Sometimes it is necessary to change the whole nutritional habits of a certain population.
- the scientifically based intervention in oral health submits plaque control, fluoridation of the water, dental-induced application of fluoride and sealants for the enhancement of the enamel.
- Fluoride prevents dental caries in two ways:
- Oral hygiene prevents dental caries and periodontal diseases by removing the dental plaque.
- Sealants have used to prevent pit and fissures caries in children.
- the preventive value of sealant have been thoroughly examined and proved.
- the problem, though, of caries and periodontal diseases still exists, especially in adult population.
- the present invention eliminates all these problems because the protective substance is embedded into the teeth and sealed there. It changes the environmental conditions by making the enamel practically unsoluble to the bacteria acids (blocking the enamel minerals) and making the colonization of the teeth nearly impossible (low surface tension).
- the present invention is a teeth-coating method that protects teeth from caries and periodontal diseases and at the same time paints the teeth. There are three steps:
- Etching of the teeth There are already known etching techniques that dentists use in today's dentistry. Etching gels or etching liquids including phosphoric and citric acids or others that can be easily applied to the teeth. Laser induced etching can be also used with various types of laser beams.
- the teeth are all over etched in all their surfaces especially the more sensitive ones like interproxLmal and in pits and fissures. If there is periodontitis involved in a certain tooth, even cementum must be etched in order to be later coated and protected.
- the depth of the etching is closely related to the penetration ability of the application technique (step #2) and the penetration ability of the substance that will be used in the second step. That depth varies from a few microns to half a millimeter.
- This substance can be a polymer or a salt that contains fluoride or metals.
- the application technique is electrophoresis, spraying or just application of the substance to the teeth.
- the application technique is related to the nature of the substance, i.e. to the penetration ability of the specific substance into the enamel. If a substance can give a polar solution, electrophoresis is the best application technique. If a substance can be sprayed, spraying is the best solution. Every technique is accepted if can result in a minimum penetration into the enamel. After the application of the particular substance, a second light etching is needed, in order to create some space for the sealing. This step is not necessary if there is space left. In case the used substance has sealing or glazing characteristics the following step is not necessary.
- the protective substances may advantageously also have color additives, so that their application into the teeth leads to the cosmetic painting of the teeth.
- Various types of white color or other colors can be used to add a new tint to the teeth.
- Today's whitening methods are based in the hydroxy peroxide that oxidizes the enamel minerals resulting in the bleaching of the teeth. This bleaching method is not sufficient because the teeth turn dark again in a few weeks, due to the color of the coffee, the food, or the cigarette.
- the present invention is not based on the oxidation of the enamel minerals but practically paints the tooth in the desired color.
- the same substances that are used for the protection of the teeth can be used to give a desired color to the teeth.
- the new color lasts longer than the simple bleaching because the discoloration of the food and the drinks cannot be attached to the teeth due to the newly formed low surface tension.
- the second preferred embodiment of the present invention relates to the implantation of a thermoplastic polymer or a ceramic into the outer layer of the dental enamel, dentin or cementum. This method includes three steps:
- the dental tissue is etched and dried.
- the part of the tooth that is etched depends on the application. For caries and periodontal diseases protection, the whole tooth must be etched especially interproximally and in pits and fissures.
- the etched space relies on the esthetic ideal, because the etched space will accept the desired shade.
- the etched part is defined by the margins of the restoration.
- the drying of the etched tooth is performed after the etching and can be done by air or a lower wattage laser beam.
- the application of the specific material for the specific application is performed by air spraying the material into the etched dental tissue.
- the material must be in fine powder so that it can permeate the etched tooth especially between the hydroxyapatite rods.
- the proper laser beam adjusted in the proper settings for every application, scans the tooth and melts the material instantaneously into the tooth. Right after the melting, the lased part of the tooth is air dried. The flame must reach the melting point of each material and must not damage the material or the tissue from overheating.
- the implanted material blocks the exit of the dental minerals from the enamel and especially the intraprismatic space of the enamel -anti caries protection;
- the implanted material has very high chemical resistance and creates a very low surface tension to the tooth tissues which make the tooth uncolonizable to the bacteria -anti periodontal diseases protection;
- the implanted materials have a broad range in colors and can be used to give the teeth the desired shade-painting method
- the implanted material creates an alloy with the tooth tissues as it is co-melted with them, making the restoration, a part of the tooth -restorative material.
- the implantable material is a polymer or a ceramic that can be melted into the tooth.
- the polymers are preferable because of the excellent chemical resistance and the low surface tension that create to the tooth enamel, making it uncolonizable to bacteria.
- the polymers are preferable again because of the versatility of their use and the wide shade range that they have.
- the ceramics are preferable because of the non-existence of microleakage -due to the co-melting of the ceramic and the tissue- and the vicinity of properties between dental tissues and ceramics.
- the laser beam must be adjusted to the properties of every dental tissue to which it refers.
- the wavelength of the laser must be the same that every dental tissue absorbs (i.e., 9.3 - 9.6 ⁇ m for the enamel or 6-7.5 ⁇ m for the dentin). This fact gives the dentist the opportunity to heat the dental tissue to that point where each material melts.
- the specific wavelength which every dental tissue fully absorbs makes that specific tissue unable to transmit the laser wave deeper into the tooth and consequently hurt the pulp of the tooth.
- Every dental tissue has a specific thermal damage envelope.
- the melting of the implantable material -polymer or ceramic- must coordinate with this envelope. That means that the melting of the material must happen instantaneously in order to avoid the damage of the tissue which can arise from prolonged time of irradiation.
- the laser beam can be either pulsed or continuous. That depends on the application.
- the pulsed mode is preferable because it gives the tooth time to coo, especially in the restorative application.
- continuous mode can be used because of the low wattage of the laser.
- the flame must reach the melting point of each material and must not char or damage the implantable material or the tissue.
- the first preferred embodiment of the present invention is a teeth-coating method that protects teeth from dental caries and periodontal diseases and optionally also paints teeth at a desired color.
- This coating method consists of the following steps:
- etching the teeth for example by acid, laser, or other methods available to dentists;
- the etching of the teeth can be performed by the already known techniques, e.g., acid or laser induced.
- the etching step is essential because there must be enough space for the second step, the application of the protective substances.
- the entire exposed surface of the teeth must be etched, in order to provide adequate protection.
- Another etching procedure that can be employed herein is the "air abrasion" option.
- etching commonly employed materials include phosphoric acid, maleic acid, citric acid, pyruvic acid, and the like.
- laser etching common lasers used are the C0 2 , Nd/Yag, Ar:F and others.
- known techniques are used for an overall etching, at a sufficient depth that will accommodate the protective substances and any optional colorants. Special care should also be given to those places that are more prone to develop caries like interproximately and in pits and fissures, or in the places that already have or are more prone to develop periodontitis (in some cases even cementum must be protected).
- the etching depth is closely related to the penetration ability and the application technique of the protective substances which will be applied after the etching step.
- the quality of the tooth enamel is another factor, which will vary on a patient by patient basis. Usually, an etching depth of about 50 microns ( ⁇ ) is adequate for most aspects of the present invention.
- the application of the protective substance (and optional coloring substances) can be performed by various techniques depending on the nature of the substance used. Electrophoresis, spraying, or any other technique that results in the penetration of the substance into the enamel. This penetration can vary from a few microns to half a millimeter depending on the etching technique that is previously used and the penetration ability that every substance has. The total depth of the penetration is closely related to the protection degree that every substance has. More protective characteristics mean less depth and vice versa.
- Commonly employed protective substances include the water soluble polymers (xanthan and others), other polymers, salts (e.g., ZnF, CaF, NaF and others), oxides (ZrO 2 , TiO 2 and others), cellulose products (cellulose acetate and others), proteins, polyurethane solid coatings, composites (Bisphenol A-Glycidyl Methacrylate and others), resins (Bis-GMA and others).
- the final step is the sealing of the teeth. This step is necessary when protective substances with no sealing characteristics were previously used, and not necessary in case of protective substances with self-sealing characteristics.
- the sealing materials generally require some space in order to be applied, so if the protective (and optional colorant) substance has filled every space in the teeth, a second light etching will be required before the sealing.
- the sealing can be curable, like the already known glazes in dentistry or not.
- the sealing must hermetically seal the tooth's surface.
- One commonly employed sealer is available under the brand name "Fortify.” Other sealers are also known and commercially available.
- thermoplastic polymer or a meltable ceramic material is implanted into the tooth.
- the implantable polymer or ceramic in fine powder, is air sprayed into the acid etched and laser dried tooth.
- a specific laser or a flame adjusted in the proper settings, scans the tooth and instantaneously melts the polymer or the ceramic.
- the application ends with the air drying of the lased part of the tooth right after the melting.
- the etching of the dental enamel, dentin or cementum is performed by acid or laser. Already used etching acids like phosphoric acid, maleic acid, citric acid, pyruvic acid can be used for this step.
- the laser etching can also be used, although not preferably, because of the melting that creates to the dental tissues. After the etching the etched dental tissue is dried by air or by laser. The laser is preferable because it does not create the piston phenomenon. In this case the air that flows into the intraprismatic area cannot reach and dry the bottom part of the tags because of the existing amount of air that is already pressed there in a higher pressure than the pressure of the air spray.
- the drying laser follows the same rules with the melting laser in a lower wattage.
- the application of the implantable polymer or ceramic is performed by air spraying the material into the etched part of the tooth.
- the polymer or the ceramic is in fine powder so that it can permeate the tooth and rest into the tooth, especially between the rods of the apatite.
- the polymers that can be used must be thermoplastic in order to be melted using the laser or the flame.
- the melting point of the polymers and the ceramics must not exceed the melting point of the dental tissue that will be implanted in.
- the maximum melting point that any implantable material can have is the melting point of the dental tissue that will be implanted in.
- the amount of the dental tissue that is removed from the etching corresponds to the amount of the material that is deposited and the result after the laser irradiation is an alloy of dental tissue and implanted material (ceramic or special polymer) that has the same dimensions with the part of the tooth where the application took place.
- the laser or the flame is used actually to instantaneously heat the dental tissue or the implantable material (depends on the application) to a specific point where the melting point of the implantable material stands.
- the flame must not exceed the melting point of the implantable material.
- the laser -preferably used for restorative reasons- follows the thermal damage envelope of every dental tissue that will be used on.
- the wavelength of the laser that will be applied in any dental tissue must be fully absorbed by the specific dental tissue so that the laser energy is not transmitted into the pulp of the tooth.
- the wavelength that is fully absorbed by the enamel is 9.3-9.6 ⁇ m and can be delivered by a CQ dental laser.
- the wattage of the laser relates to the energy that the implantable material needs to be melted into the dental tissue or maximum needs the dental tissue along with the ceramic or the polymer to be melted together.
- the mode of the laser - continuous or pulsed- depends on the implantable materials and the thermal relaxation time of every dental tissue. For laser drying, continuous mode is preferable because the wattage is very low. For laser melting, pulsed mode is preferable because it gives the tooth time to cool.
- the spot diameter of the laser beam or the flame plays an important role in the amount of energy that is deposited into the dental tissue and can vary from 0.1 mm (for pits and fissures) to 1.5 mm for the wider areas of the tooth.
- the drying of the melted material into the tooth is performed by air spraying.
- an air spray follows to cool down the tooth area that has accepted the implantation. This cooling down turns -progressively- the temperature of the irradiated spot back to the normal level.
- thermoplastic polymers that can be used in this invention are all the polymers that can be melted by a laser or a flame and their melting point does not exceed the melting point of the dental tissue that will receive this implantation.
- the ceramics follow the same rule. Every ceramic compound can be used if it can be melted by a laser or a flame and its melting point does not exceed the melting point of the dental tissue that will receive the implantation.
