Resumo: | In the past few years bioimpedance has been used in many applications in dentistry, such as estimating the length of root canals and the physical properties of enamel. Despite the significant number of studies using bioimpedance to investigate the dental structure, many of them use only the real component of bioimpedance, i.e., the resistance, disregarding the information provided by the imaginary one, i.e., the reactance. Moreover, in different studies that investigate both parts of bioimpedance, the data are obtained by using single frequency or multifrequency methods based on sinusoidal sweep. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of an alternative bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) method based on step response in the assessment of tooth structure. To test the feasibility of the studied method we performed in vitro experiments that considered the successive removal of enamel layers of 22 healthy teeth, the accomplishment of the BIS method, and the estimate of bioimpedance parameter that were associated with the changes in the tooth structure. To deal with the variability of bioimpedance parameters a dental health index (DHI) is proposed. The findings include the behavior of bioimpedance parameters of intact teeth, as well as those associated with the successive removal of the enamel layer, and indicate that DHI is sensitive enough to detect changes of the enamel layer. The results point to the feasibility of the studied BIS method in evaluating tooth structure and that it might be used to assess dental health. |
