Assessment of fluoride levels during pregnancy and its association with early adverse pregnancy outcomes.

June 2020 | Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care | Goyal LD, Bakshi DK, Arora JK, Manchanda A, Singh P. | 9(6):2693-8
Background and Aim: There is sparse data available on human subjects regarding the affect of excessive fluoride exposures on pregnancy. The aim of this study was to examine the association between elevated urinary fluoride levels during early pregnancy and maternal anemia and adverse fetal outcome. Patients and Methods: We enrolled 600 pregnant patients with gestational age less than 20 weeks and with a high urinary fluoride levels(>1 mg/L).We also documented the fluoride levels in the tap

Conservative esthetic management of severe dental fluorosis with in-office power bleaching.

July-September 2020 | Annals of African Medicine | Ambar W Raut, Vijay Mantri, Priyanka V Gedam, Pooja P Phabyani. | 19(3):211-214.
Abstract Fluorosis is an endemic disease, prevailing in about 25 countries globally. Dental fluorosis is an acquired defect of enamel due to the exposure of an individual to excessive fluoride levels during tooth development. It could result in mild-to-severe discoloration of teeth, which might necessitate esthetic correction. Bleaching is one of the common treatment modalities used in the esthetic correction of such cases. In-office power bleaching is one of the techniques of tooth bleaching t
