ABSTRACT

This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of 5% sodium fluoride-polyvinyl alcohol (NaF-PVA) tapeinfluencing enamel remineralization by analysing enamel surface microhardness (SMH) and variation of ΔF ofQLF. After enamel demineralizing of specimen, these 60 specimens with average KHN of microhardness rangingfrom 50 to 100 and with ΔF of QLF ranging from -15 to -25 were divided into four groups : group 1 (controlgroup), group 2 (NaF-PVA), group 3 (fluoride varnish, FluoroDose varnish), group 4 (Casein phosphopeptideamorphouscalcium phosphate, Tooth mousse plusTM). These specimens were treated with materials and thenimmersed in artificial saliva. We measured remineralization rate each using surface microhardness (SMH) andQuantitative light-induced fluorescence digital (QLF-D). As a result, NaF-PVA tape is better than group 1, 4 and have comparable remineralization effect with group 3(p < 0.05).
