The cu1Tently accepted theories relatedto the action of fluoride in
the oral cavity are; I) increasing the resistance of the tooth structure to acid dissolution 2)
enhancement of the process ofremineralization and 3) reduction of the cariogenic potential of dental
plaque

Front 4

BIS-GMA resins that are placed on the occlusal surfaces of teeth having deep pits and
fissures, in order to prevent the development of caries. The technique involves acid-etching the
enamel surface in order to provide a retentive surface for the adherence of the resin. Both light-cured
and chemically-cured materials are available.
