Abstract
Fluoride distribution was investigated by an abrasive micro-sampling technique. The fluoride concentration increased with age in both sound and diseased cementum. In sound teeth, the fluoride profiles (distribution of fluoride from the surface to interior) of the middle and apical cementum were similar. In the diseased cementum the profile of the middle region tended to be more variable than that of the apical cementum, suggesting a possible effect of the oral environment on the fluoride profile at this site.Entities:
