Abstract

GONZALEZ-GONZALEZ, J.M.. Dentibuccal cleaning by adsorption techniques with disposable material: new alternative to oral hygiene. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2014, vol.30, n.6, pp.299-305. ISSN 2340-3152.

The aim of this paper is to show different materials to make oral cleaning, with high adsorption power, non-toxic and disposable (throwaway) which chewed in the mouth allow drag plaque. Material and Methods: valid information has been selected for study in the Medline data base, internet network and bibliography own files. Results: Among the materials are found sepiolites, zeolites, agars, activated carbon, polymers Family gums and gum arabic, silicones, kaolin, tea leaves, tyre ashes and waste of chemically modified plants. Discussion: Sepiolites and zeolites could be incorporated into gums -gum type- to be chewed and then discarded. Family polymers agars and gums may be applied onto the tooth surface, so that upon removal of dental plaque drag. Conclusions: We propose a new alternative to brushing, using disposables high adsorption, although it is still under study and applicability in stomatology.
