The study is to determine the prevalence of rickets among children under five years and links with flouride contents in drinking water. Food sources and recommended adequate daily intake for vitamin D. Naivasha hospital Rift Valley Province, confounding correlations between the disease rickets in relation to flouride contents of water supplies and food. Case study design was used by comparing d...

Fluoride release from six light-activated restorative materials, including two resinmodified glass-ionomers, two composites, and two compomers, was evaluated and compared with one conventional acid-based glass-ionomer cement. The amount and rate of release varied among the tested materials. Both resin-modified glass-ionomers and the conventional acid-base glass-ionomer cements released more flu...

Tooth decay is one of the most common infectious microbiological diseases in world. Dental cavities are now less than it was before water fluoridation put into place. Fluoride toothpastes a high calibre and excellent at preventing tooth decay. therapy administered by specialist helps prevent dental caries.

The bioactive glasses have been used in the medical field due to their wide spread benefits as implant coatings, bone substitutes and for treatment of dentine sensitivity. The purpose of this study was to incorporate zinc and fluoride in the bioactive glass for potential use in dentifrices as antibacterial and anticaries agents. A series of glass compositions based on SiO2, CaO, CaF2, MgO, and ...
