    White spot lesions accumulates higher

    concentration of Fluoride than sound enamel.

    1
    MECHANISM OF ACTION OF
    FLUORIDES
    • Reaction with enamel : less dissolution

    • Effect on bacterial metabolism and plaque

    • Reducing the tendency of enamel surface to


    absorb proteins

    • Ateration of the tooth morphology

    Void theory
    • Kay, Young and Posner1964
    • At concentration < 100ppm
    • Fluorhydroxyapatite or fluorapatite formation
    takes place
    • This replacement takes place by Void theory

    3
    • Calcium triangle
    • H of the OH ion,
    face each other
    • Insufficient
    room
    • OH missing-
    void
    • Fluoride ion
    enters this void
