Fluoride Varnishes for Preventing Occlusal Dental Caries: A Review
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Dentistry Journal"
DOI: 10.3390/dj9060064
Abstract: Dental caries are most likely to occur on occlusal surfaces from the early eruptive stages of the tooth. In children, about 80% to 90% of dental caries are occlusal caries. Different preventive modalities are used… read more here.
