Impact of fluoride containing toothpaste in the enamel in vitro

ABSTRACT

The study was carried out in vitro to determine the changes of fluoride concentration in tooth enamels that were treated with fluoride dentifrices. The analysis of enamels showed that the fluoride from dentifricaes has been delivered into tooth enamels to contribute to the process of remineralisation at the areas of demineralised enamels. So the fluoride dentifrices have efficacy in preventation of dental caries. The difference of fluoride concentration in enamel samples demonstrated that the anticaries efficacy of dentifrices was also different.
