Abstract
Most methods for the control of dental calculus involve the use of chemical
type adjuvants for the removal of dental calculus. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Pluronic
F-127 Thermosensitive Gel based on a vegetable matrix (papaya) and L-arginine as an adjuvant
for the removal of dental calculus. Materials and Methods: The present investigation is presented
as an in-depth study of experimental character in vitro to 45 dental pieces, which were distributed
in three groups according to concentrations of 10%, 20% and 30% of Pluronic F-127 Gel, Larginine and papain pulp. Results: The 30% concentration (E3) showed greater effectiveness in
the exposure times of the teeth, achieving total removal of the calculus after 60 minutes.
Conclusions: The use of Pluronic. Papain and L-arginine in concentrations whose ratio is 6 gr
Pluronic + 30 % pulp paine (30 gr) + l-arginine (0.5 gr), is effective as a coadjuvant agent for the
removal of dental calculus.
