    Dental erosive effects of energising drinks in users attending a local gym, Lima-2019
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-11-09) Arutaype Torres, Mitzi Frida; Vilchez Bellido, Dina
    The consumption of energy drinks has increased in recent years, potentially leading to dental erosion. The study aimed to determine the relationship between energy drink consumption and the presence of dental erosion in users of a local gym. Methodology: This was an observational, cross-sectional, and prospective study with a relational level of analysis. The sample consisted of 60 users of the V2 Fitness Club gym in March 2019. Participants were examined through interviews and clinical examinations, collecting data such as sex and age, characteristics of energy drink consumption, and dental erosion using the Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) form. Results: No relationship was found between the frequency of energy drink consumption and the presence of dental erosion (p>0.15). It was observed that 100% of participants consumed energy drinks, with 86% consuming one drink daily and 33.3% reporting a consumption duration of 6 to 11 months. Additionally, 100% exhibited dental erosion: 81.2% showed initial surface loss (Grade 1), and 18.8% showed less than 50% surface loss (Grade 2). Among those aged 22 to 33 years, 100% had initial surface loss. Conclusion: Despite the presence of dental erosion, further studies are necessary to establish its association with energy drink consumption.

    Effect of three beverages on the micro-strength of a composite resin: in vitro study
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-08-15) Gómez Vásquez, Katty; Vilchez Bellido, Dina
    The objective of this research was to compare the effect of three beverages on the microhardness of a composite resin in an in vitro study. The study was experimental, longitudinal, comparative, and prospective, with a comparative level, consisting of a sample of 10 composite resin discs per group, which were immersed in four immersion liquids, totaling 40 (n=40). The beverages used were an energy drink (Volt), a carbonated drink (Guaraná), a hydration drink (Gatorade), and as a control group, physiological serum. The results showed that the composite resin subjected to the energy drink Volt had an initial microhardness of 76.27 ± 4.74 Kg/mm² and a final microhardness of 70.04 ± 3.92 Kg/mm²; the composite resin subjected to the carbonated drink Guaraná had an initial microhardness of 77.04 ± 2.69 Kg/mm² and a final microhardness of 73.32 ± 3.59 Kg/mm²; the composite resin subjected to the hydration drink Gatorade had an initial microhardness of 78.48 ± 5.33 Kg/mm² and a final microhardness of 70.96 ± 2.18 Kg/mm²; while the composite resin subjected to physiological serum had an initial microhardness of 80.06 ± 3.48 Kg/mm² and a final microhardness of 70.15 ± 2.60 Kg/mm². A statistically significant difference was found between the initial and final microhardness of the composite resin subjected to the energy drink Volt, hydration drink Gatorade, and carbonated drink Guaraná (p<0.05). Conclusion: A variation between the initial and final microhardness of the composite resin was observed when subjected to the different beverages studied.
