Thermal expansion of sodium fluoride and sodium bromide

Equilibrium gas-phase structures of sodium fluoride, bromide, and iodide monomers and dimers.

The alkali halides sodium fluoride, sodium bromide, and sodium iodide exist in the gas phase as both monomer and dimer species. A reanalysis of gas electron diffraction (GED) data collected earlier has been undertaken for each of these molecules using the EXPRESS method to yield experimental equilibrium structures. EXPRESS allows amplitudes of vibration to be estimated and correction terms to b...

Comparison of Fluoride Uptake into Enamel from Sodium Fluoride Gel 0.05% Produced in Iran and Stannous Fluoride 0.4% Gel

Background & Aims: The present study compared fluoride uptake into enamel from sodium fluoride 0.05% gel and American Dental Association approved fluoride gel (Stannous fluoride 0.4% , Sultan Co.) when used on healthy enamel of the intact teeth. Methods: In an experimental study, 30 intact teeth extracted for orthodontic purposes were randomly assigned into two groups of 15 teeth. The teeth wer...

Osteogenesis imperfecta tarda treated with sodium fluoride.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a disorder of connective tissue, existing in a severe form (congenita) and a milder form (tarda) both being inherited as an autosomal dominant (McKusick, 1966). Recently Aeschlimann, Grunt, and Crigler (1966) and Bilginturan and Ozsoylu (1966) reported three infants with osteogenesis imperfecta congenita who improved, as regards survival and frequency of spontaneous f...

Sodium Fluoride Effective for Removing Roundworms

18F-Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography

Coronary atherosclerosis is a progressive disease that involves vascular inflammation, development of cholesterol burdened atheroma, mechanisms of injury and repair, and subsequent calcification (1). Coronary artery calcification (CAC) detected with cardiac computed tomography has been shown to correlate well with overall plaque burden and is an independent predictor of cardiovascular events (2...
