Fluoride bioavailability in saliva and plaque

چکیده
BACKGROUND Different fluoride formulations may have different effects on caries prevention. It was the aim of this clinical study to assess the fluoride content, provided by NaF compared to amine fluoride, in saliva and plaque. METHODS Eight trained volunteers brushed their teeth in the morning for 3 minutes with either NaF or amine fluoride, and saliva and 3-day-plaque-regrowth was collected at 5 time intervals during 6 hours after tooth brushing. The amount of collected saliva and plaque was measured, and the fluoride content was analysed using a fluoride sensitive electrode. All subjects repeated all study cycles 5 times, and 3 cycles per subject underwent statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS Immediately after brushing the fluoride concentration in saliva increased rapidly and dropped to the baseline level after 360 minutes. No difference was found between NaF and amine fluoride. All plaque fluoride levels were elevated after 30 minutes until 120 minutes after tooth brushing, and decreasing after 360 minutes to baseline. According to the highly individual profile of fluoride in saliva and plaque, both levels of bioavailability correlated for the first 30 minutes, and the fluoride content of saliva and plaque was back to baseline after 6 hours. CONCLUSIONS Fluoride levels in saliva and plaque are interindividually highly variable. However, no significant difference in bioavailability between NaF and amine fluoride, in saliva, or in plaque was found.

Influence of Individual Saliva Secretion on Fluoride Bioavailability
UNLABELLED The aim of this preliminary investigation was to compare the individual saliva secretion rate with the fluoride bioavailability in saliva after using sodium fluoride and amine fluoride. METHODS To assess oral fluoride kinetics 10 highly trained volunteers brushed their teeth with one of the formulations and saliva was collected. The amount of saliva was measured, and the fluoride c...
متن کاملFluoride in plaque fluid, plaque, and saliva measured for 2 hours after a sodium fluoride monofluorophosphate rinse.
Sodium monofluorophosphate (NaMFP) and sodium fluoride (NaF) are the two most common sources of fluoride used in currently marketed fluoride dentifrices. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mouth rinses containing NaF or NaMFP on the concentrations of fluoride, or the MFP ion, in saliva, whole plaque, and plaque fluid. Twelve subjects abstained from tooth brushing for 48 ...

متن کاملDistribution of fluoride in saliva and plaque fluid after a 0.048 mol/L NaF rinse.
An ultramicro method has recently been described for measurement of plaque-fluid fluoride concentration (Vogel et al., 1990a). This method was used: (1) for exploration of the variation in fluoride concentration of plaque fluid collected from the same buccal tooth sites following a 0.048 mol/L NaF (0.2%) rinse, and (2) for examination of the distribution of fluoride in plaque fluid and saliva w...
