Abstract:ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of fluoride consistency and composition to protect enamel and dentin against the dental erosion.Materials and MethodsBovine enamel and dentin specimens were treated with artificial saliva, neutral fluoride gel (NFG), acidulated phosphate fluoride gel (AFG), neutral fluoride foam (NFF), and acidulated phosphate fluoride foam. The samples were subjected to cycling. Micro energy‐dispersive X‐ray fluorescence spectrometry, surface roughness (Ra), contact angle (CA), and scanning ele… Show more
