BACKGROUND Surface microhardness is a physical property which access the effect of chemical and physical agents on hard tissues of teeth, and a useful way to examine the resistance of fluoride treated enamel against caries. The purpose of this study was to evaluate microhardness of enamel following pH-cycling through demineralization and remineralization using suspensions of dentifrices with di...

BACKGROUND Antimicrobial agents have been used as a chemotherapeutic agent to improve oral health. This in vitro study was carried out to determine the antimicrobial activity of ten Iranian-made toothpastes against commonly found bacteria in the oral cavity. METHODS The microorganisms used in this study were Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguis, Actinomyces viscosus and Candida albican...

Statement of problem: The effectiveness of fluoride dentifrices in reducing dental caries is well documented. However, not all fluoride dentifrices are equally effective Purpose: The objective of this experimental study was to compare fluoride uptake from Pooneh pediatric toothpaste and an ADA-approved pediatric dentifrice, in sound enamel of primary teeth. Materials and Methods: In an in vitro...
