Fluoride Concentration in Saliva following Professional Topical Application of 2% Sodium Fluoride Solution.

April 18, 2020 | Contemporary Clinical Dentistry | Talwar M, Tewari A, Chawla HS, Sachdev V, Sharma S. | 10(3):423-427.
Abstract Background: Topical fluoride application in moderate and high-risk individuals and in those living in low-fluoride communities has been a common practice by dental professionals. Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess fluoride concentration available in saliva after a professional 2% sodium fluoride solution application (9000 ppm), and the duration of its availability to have an evidence-based practice for application. Materials and Methods: Two percent sod

In situ efficacy of an experimental toothpaste on enamel rehardening and prevention of demineralisation: a randomised, controlled trial.

April 17, 2020 | BMC Oral Health | Creeth JE, Burnett GR, Souverain A, Gomez-Pereira P, Zero DT, Lippert F, Hara AT. | 20:118.
Background A novel sodium fluoride toothpaste containing lactate ion and polyvinylmethylether-maleic anhydride has been developed to promote enamel remineralisation and resistance to demineralisation. In this in situ study, we compared this toothpaste (‘Test’) with a stannous fluoride-zinc citrate (SnF2-Zn) toothpaste (‘Reference’) (both 1100–1150 ppm fluoride) and a fluoride-free toothpaste (‘Placebo’) using an enamel dental erosion-rehardening model.
