Instrument of self-perception and knowledge of dental erosion: cross-cultural adaptation to the Brazilian population
There are few instruments available in Brazil for obtaining data on dental erosion among adults.

Dose–response effect of fluoride dentifrice on remineralisation and further demineralisation of erosive lesions: A randomised in situ clinical study
Conclusion After a single brushing, conventional non-specialised sodium fluoride–silica dentifrices promoted remineralisation of early enamel lesions, and imparted increased acid-resistance to the enamel surface, in a dose-dependent manner at least up to 1500ppm fluoride. Clinical significance Enamel erosive-tissue loss is an increasing concern, associated with modern diets. This study demonstrated that sodium fluoride, in a conventional non-specialised dentifrice formulation, can promote repair of the earliest stages of enamel erosion after a single application, in a dose-dependent fashion across the fluoride concentration range used in mass-market dentifrices. This study is registered in the GlaxoSmithKline Study Register (ID RH01299), available at: www.gsk-clinicalstudyregister.com/s…
