Observations on dental caries in primary teeth after frequent fluoride toplications in a program involving other preventives

Observations on dental caries in primary teeth after frequent fluoride toplications in a program involving other preventives

H R Englander et al. J Dent Res. 1978 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

The anticaries effect of repeated toplications with APF gel was assessed in the primary dentition of 2-6-year-olds after 8, 18 and 28 months. Frequent, but less than daily, topical fluoride therapy appeared to have little effect in pre-school children consuming water-borne fluoride and receiving other traditionally recommended modalities of prevention.
