Cover Story: Dental erosion is a common problem in dentistry. It is defined as the loss of tooth mineral by the attack of acids that do not result from caries. The proposed protective actions of fluorides include the formation of an acid-resistant fluoride-rich surface layer and a fluoride-induced surface hardening of the tooth surface. A comprehensive literature study on the interaction between fluoride and tooth surfaces (e.g., by toothpastes or mouthwashes) is discussed. The analytical techniques available to address this question are presented. In summary, the amount of fluoride that is incorporated into teeth is very low (a few µg mm2). This is unlikely to protect a tooth against an attack by acids, be it from acidic agents (erosion) or from acid-producing cariogenic bacteria. View this paper
