| NCT00708305 | Evaluation of Plaque Fluid Fluoride Retention From Fluoride Toothpastes | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 65 | — | — | Jun 1, 2008 | Oct 1, 2008 | Jan 1, 2015 | 1 | United States |
Surface microhardness recovery (SMHR) test was used to assess the changes in mineralization status of enamel specimens using a Wilson 2100 Hardness tester. SMHR was determined by measuring the length of the indentations of enamel specimens. An increase in the indentation length compared to the baseline indicates softening while decrease in the indentation length represents rehardening of enamel surface. Percent SMHR was calculated from indentation values of enamel specimens at baseline (B), after in-situ hardening (R) and after first demineralization challenge (D1) using formula: \[(D1-R)/ (D1-B)\]\*100.
To evaluate fluoride content, plaque samples were collected from the interproximal surfaces of the posterior teeth of participants using a standardized approach. Plaque fluid fluoride were calculated using a micro analytical method and in comparison to a standard fluoride curve constructed on the same day of the analysis. AUC was determined from 0-4hours using trapezoidal rule and natural log transformation was applied due to failure of assumption of normal distribution of data.
