Rheological properties of topical fluoride gels
Dental Materials, 1989The rheological properties of several commercial topical fluoride gels were studied. For that purpose, we investigated hysteresis loops under standard conditions, equilibrium values, apparent viscosities as a function of shear rate, rate of thixotropic recovery, and the influence of temperature.

Topical Application of Fluorides
2023Fluoride is present in natural water sources and occurs as an ionic form of fluorine trace element. It is a safe and effective agent used primarily to prevent dental caries, especially in children. Fluoride can remineralize calcium hydroxyapatite crystals in enamel by forming acid-resistant calcium fluorapatite crystals.

Pharmacokinetic Aspects of Topical Fluorides
Journal of Dental Research, 1987Pharmacokinetic studies have revealed quantitative information about the bioavailability, rate of absorption, distribution, and clearance of fluoride following the use of fluoride-containing dentifrices, gels, varnishes, and solutions. It is concluded that following the use of topical fluoride products, variable amounts of fluoride are swallowed and ...

Release of Fluoride into Saliva after Topical Fluoride Application
Journal of Dental Research, 1969Fluoride uptake by the surface enamel of teeth treated with fluoride solutions in vitro and fluoride release into saliva after topical applications in vivo were determined. The fluoride uptake after NaF + Na2HPO4 treatment was higher than that after NaF treatment. The fluoride release into saliva was less after NaF + Na2HPO4 than after NaF application,

In vitro enamel fluoride uptake from topical fluoride agents
Dental Materials, 1985Abstract The F acquired by enamel from APF, Duraphat and Fluor Protector was evaluated in this in vitro study. The topical F agents were applied to the tooth surfaces for 4 min, the teeth were suspended in synthetic saliva and the topical F agents removed after 2 h or 4 h.

Evaluation of Topical Fluoride Preparations
Journal of Dental Research, 1990For practical reasons, evaluation of topical fluoride products must depend upon clinical and laboratory assessments. While not always a good predictor of clinical efficacy by itself, fluoride uptake is the most commonly used laboratory test. A consideration of the relationship between possible anticaries mechanisms of fluoride, different product types,

Antiplaque Potential of Topical Stannous Fluoride
Journal of Dental Research, 1977Sterile enamel samples treated by topical application of 10% stannous fluoride were incubated with S mutans and S sanguis respectively and with a mixed culture to which L casei had been added. The results were compared with sterile nonfluoridated enamel samples subjected to the same procedures.

Topical fluorides and hardness of enamel*
Australian Dental Journal, 1974Abstract— Acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) and stannous fluoride (SnF2) solutions applied to acetic acid etched and unetched human enamel shows that two 2 minute applications of APF on the etched enamel significantly softened it, but there was no significant change when SnF2 was used.

Topical fluorides play a vital role in preventive dentistry by reducing the incidence of dental caries and promoting oral health3. The primary etiological factor in caries development is the demineralization of enamel caused by acids produced by bacterial fermentation of dietary carbohydrates. Indications for topical fluoride use include individuals at

Fluoride Uptake and Retention in vitro Following Topical Fluoride Applications
Journal of Dental Research, 1983Fluoride uptake and retention on maxillary and mandibular incisors were compared using a conventional APF gel, a thixotropic gel, and a new pluronic-based fluoride gel. Based on the results of in vivo acid-etch biopsies, significant fluoride uptake was obtained with each of the three agents.
