... et al., 2003]. Thus, it has been recommended that FD should be used at least twice a day for better control of enamel caries, but the relationship between the frequency of toothbrushing and reduction of demineralization and enhancement of remineralization has not been evaluated. Also, the importance...

... after brushing reduced the salivary F level about 12-15 times (p < 0.001) compared with brushing alone. The conclusions from this study are therefore: (1) that both rinsing with water and eating immediately after toothbrushing accelerates the rate of F elimination in saliva, and (2) that mouthrinsing...
