Abstract:
This study was performed to determine the fluoride concentration of the various cementum surfaces in different tooth groups to find out the most proper teeth and tooth surfaces for different cementum studies. For this purpose, direct measurements of phosphorus and fluoride were carried out in an acid etch biopsy solution. The findings indicate that incisors with exposed cementum are the most inappropriate teeth in comparison with the other groups. According to the results obtained it may be recommended that the studies related to fluoride uptake for cementum should be performed on teeth with no gingival recession or on the unerupted teeth.
