Fluoride Distribution in Sound and Carious Root Tissues of Human Teeth

Proton probe analysis has been used to provide for the first time quantitative F concentration data in carious root tissues from subjects consuming water containing 1 ppm F. In small lesions at the neck of the tooth with minimal tissue loss the F concentration was significantly higher at the outer l...
