Comparative evaluation of the surface effect of two toothpastes with different fluorine concentration on primary teeth surface
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of two toothpaste, with different fluorine concentrations, on the enamel surface of deciduous teeth. The study was performed in vitro by means of SEM microscopy. METHODS: A selection of 20 deciduous molars was prepared.
