Ended Therapeutic use (Phase IV) Phenomena and Processes (Fluoride in dental caries control)

High-dosage fluoride toothpaste for dental root caries

EU CTIS ID: 2022-500059-22-01

What this study is testing

To assess to which extent using a high-dosage fluoride toothpaste (5,000 ppm) rather than a normal fluoride toothpaste (1,450 ppm) (establishing a higher concentration of fluoride in the oral environment) will result in more arrest of root caries lesions and hinder more root caries lesion formation (in experimental in situ specimens), even though no mechanical biofilm-removal takes place.
