Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results with 9,566 children who participated for four years in a 10-site, school-based preventive care program indicated that dental health lessons, brushing and flossing, fluoride tablets and mouthrinsing, and professionally applied topical fluorides were not especially effective in reducing a clinically significant amount of dental decay. This was true when the procedures were used singly or in combination. The only study procedure that consistently reduced decay involved applying occlusal sealants to the chewing surfaces of the posterior teeth. Although this measure prevented 23 to 65 percent of all new carious lesions, this amounted to only one to two carious surfaces in four years. Children who were especially susceptible to decay did not benefit appreciably more from any of the preventive measures than did children in general. The direct costs of sealants or prophy/gel treatments were about $23 per child per year (in 1981 dollars). The cost of adding a fluoride mouthrinse program to an existing supervised health education program was about $3.29 per child per year. Communal water fluoridation was reaffirmed as the most cost effective measure for reducing dental decay in children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dental caries is a multi factorial, bacterial, chronic infection that affects millions of people in the world and has become a public health problem. Also referred to as tooth decay, this disease is one of the most common disorders throughout the world, second only to the common cold. Dental caries is the most common chronic childhood disease in the United States and is 5 to 7 times more common than asthma. According to the World Oral Health Report in 2003, dental caries affect 60-80% of school children and a vast majority of adults. If left untreated, dental caries can result in cavities forming and, eventually, tooth loss. Although the prevalence and severity of dental caries has decreased over the years, this disease can be controlled better with proper fluoride exposure. Fluoride dentifrices have been shown in numerous clinical trials to be effective anticaries agents and have been recognized as a major cause of the remarkable decline in caries prevalence in many developed countries. Dentifrices have been widely adopted around the world as the principle means of delivering topical fluoride and obtaining caries preventive benefits. Although there is documented literature on the use of topical fluorides, the issue needs to be further researched based on the recent documeanted literature and guidelines regarding use of topical fluorides. Hence, the present review was conducted with the aim to review the available literature on the use and effectiveness of different topical fluorides used in dentistry.
