Fluoride toothpastes and fluoride mouthrinses [PDF]

Acta Medica Academica, 2013
To provide a brief commentary review of fluoride-containing toothpastes and mouthrinses with emphasis on their use at home. Toothpastes and mouthrinses are just two of many ways of providing fluoride for the prevention of dental caries. The first investigations into incorporating fluoride into toothpastes and mouthrinses were reported in the middle ...

Fluoride toothpastes of different concentrations for preventing dental caries.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2019
BACKGROUND Caries (dental decay) is a disease of the hard tissues of the teeth caused by an imbalance, over time, in the interactions between cariogenic bacteria in dental plaque and fermentable carbohydrates (mainly sugars).

The Fluoride Debate: The Pros and Cons of Fluoridation [PDF]

Preventive Nutrition and Food Science, 2018
Fluoride is one of the most abundant elements found in nature. Water is the major dietary source of fluoride. The only known association with low fluoride intake is the risk of dental caries. Initially, fluoride was considered beneficial when given systemically during tooth development, but later research has shown the importance and the advantages of ...
