FLUORIDES

✳️Welcome to the world of fluorides. Watch the video to know about the discovery of fluorides and its role in dental fluorosis and dental caries.The major highlights of the video are as follows

🔆Dr F Mackay &Dr G V Black contribution
🔆Invetnion of fluoride by Chemist Churchil
🔆Trendly H Dean and his Shoe leather survey
🔆21cities study
🔆Natural products with fluoride contents
🔆Lake Nakuru (Kenya)

➡️Systemic fluoride concept includes the following

🔆Community water fluoridation
🔆School water fluoridation
🔆Milk fluoridation
🔆Salt fluoridation
🔆Fluoride tablets, drops Lozenges

➡️The video explains about the various topical fluoride therapy methods which includes

🔆Knutsons technique
🔆Mahler's Solution
🔆Brudevold solution
🔆Choking off phenomenon
🔆Tray technique
🔆Pain on technique
🔆Neutral NaF/SnF/APF gel
🔆Fluoride Varnish

➡️The video outlines different mechanisms or chemical reactions by which fluoride getting incorporated to hydroxyapatite to give protection against dental caries
🔆Chocking off mechanism
🔆DCPD
🔆CaF2
🔆Tin trifuoro phosphate

➡️The video outlines different mechanisms by which fluoride changes enamel structure, alter bacterial metabolism and tooth morphology to give protection against dental caries
🔆Improving enamel resistance
🔆Increasing demineralization
🔆Altering tooth morphology

➡️Watch the video to learn about the mechanisms in detail

➡️The video enlists and explain in detail about the various techniques used for defluoridation. The techniques includes

🔆Adsorption techniques (Activated Alumkna/Bonechar/mudpots/brick columns /drumstick seeds

🔆Ion exchange methods(Carbion/Defluron1&2)

🔆Precipitation methods(Nalgonda technique)

🔆Other techniques -Reverse osmosis/electrolysis

The video explains about the toxicity of fluorides. The double edged sword concept of fluoride and its effect on teeth. The reasons, manifestation, management are explained with respect to chronic and acute toxicity.
