RESUMO

The aim of this study was the characterization of primary and permanent teeth enamel, producing comparison parameters to future studies. The Raman spectroscopy identifies the content of organic and inorganic matters through polarized change associated with molecule vibration modes. Third permanent (n=15) and second primary molars (n=15) were used. Samples were storied in water under refrigeration. The Raman spectra were obtained at room temperature (25C) and the samples analyzed for Fourier Transform Raman Spectroscopy. The Raman spectra of the primary and permanent teeth enamel have shown nine distinct bands raging from 200 cm-1 to 3000 cm-1. Spectra showed strong vibration PO4 -3 at 960 cm-1. It is also evident for ν3 phosphate at 1028-1075 cm-1 and ν4 phosphate at 591 cm-1 and ν2 phosphate at 430 cm -1. The band at 1070 cm -1, assigned to type B carbonate. The bands at 1245 cm-1 , 1451 cm-1, 1667 cm-1 and 2940 cm-1 identified amide III, CH2, amide I, and CH2. The CH, CH2, amide I, amide III groups identify linkages featured in organic matter, while phosphate and carbonate groups identify linkages featured in inorganic matter. The results were analyzed using Students t Test (p≤0.006). There were no statistically significant difference between the phosphate bands values for the primary and permanent teeth enamel. The deciduous enamel contained significantly more carbonate than permanent enamel (p= 0.003). The CH, amide I and amide III was also significantly higher in deciduous than in permanent enamel (with p= 0.0001, p= 0.002, and p= 0.0018 respectively). There was no statistically significant difference between the CH2 band values for the primary and permanent teeth enamel. Based on the employed methodology it could be concluded that the enamel of primary teeth has a higher amount of organic components, as well as carbonate content. The difference of chemical behavior of the enamel can probably be able to modify their structural characteristics.
