چکیده
Patients with recently exposed root surfaces may become susceptible to acidic environments, even when other pertinent environmental factors remain unchanged. The inorganic chemical events of the root caries are similar to that of the enamel, however, the permeability and reactivity of the root surface allows the demineralization process to occur at a higher pH than in enamel. Therefore, clinicians Elemental analysis of the fluoride varnish effects on root caries initiation

متن کاملErratum to: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of fluoride varnish in preventing dental caries of Sjögren’s syndrome patients
BACKGROUND Sjögren's syndrome (SS) patients are prone to caries development due to reduction of salivary flow. Topical fluoride is commonly prescribed for caries prevention. METHODS In this 24-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, SS patients were randomly assigned to receive either fluoride varnish or placebo gel quarterly. Development and arrest of caries at the...
