[Caries prevention by means of a Na2FPO3-toothpaste after 7 year's application]
Abstract
After 7 years unsupervised use of a Na2FPO3 paste the number of new DMF-surfaces was 36 to 38% lower than in the control group. The caries-inhibiting effect is statistically significant (P less than 0.001). Separate consideration of the first molar reduced caries of the other teeth to 40--42%.
