Résumé : | The rate and ability of fissure penetration of several commercially available fluoride gels were assessed in an in vitro fissuremodel. It was found that penetration depended on the fissure form, the surface tension and the viscosity of the gel. With theexception of one very viscous gel, all gels were able to penetrate into the s~llnw-DDE fissure, but only two out of the five fluoridegels tested could penetrate into the deep-narrow fissure within 4 min. Al1 gels with good penetration characteristics contained asurface-active agent and had a viscosity lower than 1200 mPa s. Not only the fiuoride component but also the gel composition areimportant factors which influence the efficiency of dental fiuoride gels. |
