ince the primary effect of fluoride (F) on caries control is post-eruptive, any method of fluoride use, to be effective, should be able to maintain a constant fluoride concentration in the oral environment. Fluoridated water and F dentifrice are still regarded, respectively, as systemic and topical methods of F use, and they are considered to be the most effective F regimens for interfering with the caries process. However, our understanding of how these apparently different methods of F use… CONTINUE READING
