Abstract Purpose: To evaluate, in vitro, the effects of ionizing radiation on the mechanical and

ip t

micro-morphological properties of enamel and dentin of permanent teeth. Material and Methods: Enamel and dentin microhardness (n=12 hemi-sections) was evaluated at

cr

three depths (superficial, middle and deep) prior to (control) and after every 10 Gy

radiation dose up to a cumulative dose of 60 Gy by means of longitudinal

us

microhardness. Data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey’s test at a significance level of 5%. Enamel and dentin morphology was assessed by

an

scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for semi-quantitative analysis (n=8 hemisections). Data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis and Dunn’s or Fisher exact tests at

M

a significance level of 5%. Results: The application of ionizing radiation did not change the overall enamel microhardness, although an increase in superficial enamel

d

microhardness was observed. The micro-morphological analysis of enamel revealed that

te

irradiation did not influence rod structure but interprismatic structure became more

evident. Dentin microhardness decreased after 10, 20, 30, 50 and 60 Gy cumulative doses (p
