[Clinical studies on a sodium monofluorophosphate toothpaste in school children]

Random tests made in school children of the Ludwigsburg district showed that after 3 years of uncontrolled use, the number of new DMF surfaces is smaller in children using Na2PO3F toothpaste and regularly cleaning their teeth than in the corresponding placebo groups. The caries-inhibiting effect was statistically significant (significance level p=0.05%). The increase in caries impact in school children regularly but insufficiently cleaning their teeth was also significant in the placebo groups.
