The relative caries-inhibiting efficacy of amine fluoride and sodium fluoride in compatible dentifrices--Results of a consensus conference

A conference concerning the caries-inhibiting efficacy of dentifrices that contain amine and sodium fluorides compared relevant clinical studies and found that both fluoride compounds contribute to the maintenance of dental health. Because of the differing test conditions, the study results cannot, however, be compared. Thus, there is no definite scientific proof of the superiority of one fluoride compound, and no such proof will exist until dentifrices containing amine fluoride and sodium fluoride are tested in a direct clinical comparison.
