THE EFFECT OF SODIUM FLUORIDE UPON THE SURFACE STRUCTURE OF POWDERED DENTAL ENAMEL

ROBERT B. FISCHER PH.D.1 and JOSEPH CHARLES MUHLER D.D.S., PH.D.1

1 Chemical Laboratories of Indiana University, Bloomington, Ind.

The treatment of the powdered enamel surfaces with sodium fluoride solution results in a direct transformation from an apatite to a calcium fluoride structure. The rate of this transformation is enhanced very markedly as the pH of the solution is lowered. The concentration of the fluoride solution and the time of treatment are also factors involved in the rate of the transformation.
