Clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of two sodium fluoride varnish systems in preventing dental caries in children: a randomized clinical trial [PDF]

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research
Background: Dental caries frequently affects first permanent molars soon after eruption due to their anatomical susceptibility. Fluoride varnish is a widely accepted preventive measure; however, different formulations vary in fluoride retention and cost.
