Influence of genetic background on fluoride metabolism in mice.

30 Oct 2009 A/J and 129P3/J mouse strains have different susceptibilities to dental fluorosis, due to their genetic backgrounds. This study tested whether these differences are due to variations in water intake and/or F metabolism. A/J (susceptible to dental ... Read more...


Laboratory assessment of the anticaries potential of a new dentifrice.

30 Dec 2008 OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to investigate the anticaries potential of a new sodium fluoride dentifrice in comparison to two commercial dentifrices containing different fluoride compounds by determining enamel fluoride uptake (EFU) ... Read more...


Effect of APF gel application time on enamel demineralization and fluoride uptake in situ.

30 Dec 2008 This in situ crossover and blind study was conducted to investigate the effect of professional acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) gel application time on the subsequent inhibition of enamel demineralization. During 3 phases of 28 days each, 15 ... Read more...
