Abstract

The aim of this research was to study the effectiveness of different medicinal forms of the products for local fluorine prophylaxis in vitro. The object of study was the intact first premolars removed on orthodontic indications. The extracted teeth were kept in saline solution. Then the Flairesse line product (DMG, Germany) for local fluorine prophylaxis (on the producer's instruction) was applied onto the proximal surfaces. In all studied groups the depth of penetration into an enamel of ions of fluorine was recorded up to 20 мm. The difference in radiation levels is significant (p = 0.0125). Groups of teeth with a focus of subsurface demineralization formed under laboratory conditions, on the surface of which fluorine-containing preparations were applied (comparison groups), had statistically significantly higher concentrations of fluoride ions at a depth of 15 um than teeth with enamel caries in the stage of spots on the proximal surface, on which fluorine-containing preparations were applied (control) (p < 0.0125).
