Effect of Increasing Contact Time of Sucrose Solution or Powdered Sucrose on Plaque pH in vivo
A.R. Firestone
University of Zurich, Dental Institute, Department of Cariology, Periodontology, and Preventive Dentistry, Plattenstrasse 11, CH-8028 Zürich, Switzerland
Interdental plaque pH, recorded in six volunteers during and after rinsing for one, two, four, eight, and two x four min with 15 ml of a 7.3 mM (0.25%) sucrose solution, declined continuously the longer the substrate was in contact with the plaque. The addition of a sticky, non-fermentable substrate to powdered sucrose significantly increased the acidogenic response of interdental plaque.
