Fluoride and flouridation

Social Science & Medicine, 1988
To date, many of the ways of controlling tooth decay involve the use of fluorides. Either systemically via fluoridated water and tablets, or, topically, with fluoride-containing toothpaste and mouthrinses. There is now evidence that the prevalence of dental caries is declining in communities with unfluoridated water, as well as in those with ...

Fluoride Revolution and Dental Caries: Evolution of Policies for Global Use

Journal of dentistry research, 2019
Epidemiological studies over 70 y ago provided the basis for the use of fluoride in caries prevention. They revealed the clear relation between water fluoride concentration, and therefore fluoride exposure, and prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis

UCSF Protocol for Caries Arrest Using Silver Diamine Fluoride: Rationale, Indications and Consent.

Journal - California Dental Association, 2016
The Food and Drug Administration recently cleared silver diamine fluoride for reducing tooth sensitivity. Clinical trials document arrest and prevention of dental caries by silver diamine fluoride.

Fluoride Mouthrinses and Fluoride Varnishes

Caries Research, 1993
The cariostatic efficacy of rinsing with a 0.05-0.2% neutral sodium fluoride solution has been clearly demonstrated, especially in supervised school-based programmes in moderate and high caries risk children. The cost-benefit effect, however, is questionable in populations with low caries prevalence, and fluoride rinsing programmes are gradually being ...

FLUORIDE MECHANISMS

Dental Clinics of North America, 1999
This article discusses fluoride mechanisms in relation to dental caries. The authors specifically address firmly bound versus loosely bound fluoride; different fluoride active ingredients; fluoride and demineralization and remineralization; fluoride slow-release devices and F-releasing dental materials; antimicrobial effects of fluoride; the uptake of ...

Fluorides and Osteoporosis

Southern Medical Journal, 1991
Sodium fluoride has clearly been shown to have pronounced effects on the skeleton, probably more than any other currently available therapeutic agent. Unfortunately, these effects appear to be both beneficial and potentially toxic at the same time. A more clear understanding is needed of the basic mechanisms whereby these effects (both beneficial and ...

Adsorption of Fluoride from Water Solution on Bone Char

, 2007
The effects of solution pH and temperature on the adsorption of fluoride onto bone char made from cattle bones were investigated in this work. It was found that the maximum adsorption took place at pH 3 and the adsorption capacity decreased nearly 20 ...

Fluorides and Non-Fluoride Remineralization Systems

2013
Caries develops when the equilibrium between de- and remineralization is unbalanced favoring demineralization. De- and remineralization occur depending on the degree of saturation of the interstitial fluids with respect to the tooth mineral. This equilibrium is positively influenced when fluoride, calcium and phosphate ions are added favoring ...

Adsorption Equilibrium, Kinetics, and Thermodynamic Studies of Fluoride Adsorbed by Tetrametallic Oxide Adsorbent

, 2018
This study investigated the performance of fluoride adsorption onto a specific tetrametallic oxide adsorbent Fe–Al–Ce-Ni (FACN) and the effect of temperature on adsorption performance.

Fluoride and the fluoridation of water

1982
In the early years of this century a dentist in Colorado, Frederick McKay, observed that the permanent teeth of many of his patients showed either white chalky patches or lines which, in more severe cases, had a rough surface and, some years after eruption, became an unsightly yellow or brown. The condition was uncommon in the deciduous teeth.
