    Author: Strübig W.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1983 Jul; 131(7):438-40. PubMed ID: 6621561.
    Abstract:
    The topical fluoride application is a caries-preventive treatment. The fluoride uptake in surface and subsurface sound human enamel differs, depending on the fluoride preparation. Fluoride tablets, solutions, gels, tooth pastes and varnishes are widely used as anticaries agents. The rate of fluoride uptake by the surface enamel from three different fluoride applications (sodium fluoride, amine fluoride and fluorosilicate) was determined. When enamel war treated with amine fluoride the highest and most stable fluoride concentrations were obtained.
