“…Such programmes have been shown to reduce caries incidence, especially when the mouthrinsing programme started in pre-school children [Kishi et al, 1992]. A technical report from WHO [1994] indicated that F mouthrinsing was not recommended for children below the age of 6 years.…”

This study was undertaken to explore the site-specific retention rate and the possibility of shortening fluoride (F) mouthrinsing time of kindergarten children. Fluoride retention after 10-, 20- and 30-second mouthrinsing was determined in 43 kindergarten children aged 4–5 years. Tooth surfaces were sampled by a paper point method. Fluoride concentrations in the salivary film on tooth surfaces increased from primary molars to primary incisors in the maxilla and decreased from primary molars to primary incisors in the mandible. The fluoride solution reached the primary molars even after a 10-second rinse, but F concentrations were higher after 20 s than after 10 s and significantly higher after 30 s than after 10 s. No significant difference was observed between 20 and 30 s. The average total F retained in the mouth was 0.13 mg after 20 s and 0.17 mg after 30 s. It was concluded that 30-second mouthrinsing, which is used extensively in Japanese kindergartens, can be shortened to 20 s.

“…Kishi et al 18 reported that 20-year-old Japanese adults who had participated in a daily 0.05% sodium FMR between 4 and 11 years of age and in a weekly 0.2% sodium FMR between 12 and 14 years of age presented with significantly lower caries than those who did not participate in such programmes (56%-71% difference in the mean DMFS). The former had fewer decayed tooth surfaces than the latter; the decay in the free smooth tooth surfaces especially was less than in the pits and fissures.…”
