Summary
This study will be a cross-over single blinded clinical study to evaluate the in vitro fluoride release of three different brands of 5% NaF varnish. The goal of this study is to determine if different formulations of varnish lead to differing amounts of fluoride release. Despite their similar concentrations of NaF (5%), some in vitro data have suggested that they may differ in the amount of fluoride release. Determining fluoride release of these varnishes in vivo is important in assessing both the safety and efficacy of the product.
