目的
以系统的方法综述特定氟化物治疗对成人根面龋病活动的效果。
材料和方法
对华盛顿特区国家医学图书馆(Medline-PubMed)和Cochrane口腔健康集团的专家试验登记簿进行电子搜索，直到2005年4月并包括2005年4月，使用特定的搜索词来确定随机对照试验、对照临床试验和持续至少3个月的纵向研究，调查特定氟化物治疗对健康成年人根面龋病活动和/或发病率的影响。在开始额外的氟化物应用方案之前，对根面龋病状况进行了比较，并在对照研究中进行了组间比较。论文由两位评审员(MH和SP)独立筛选。
结果
在348篇标题和摘要中，有6篇符合选择标准，并进行了数据提取。最高水平的证据在这两篇论文中使用了双盲对照随机临床试验(Wallace等人，1993；Baysan等人，2001)。这两项研究都表明，以高浓度牙膏或附加漱口水的形式增加氟化物的应用对根面龋病的发病率/严重程度有积极的影响。
结论
额外的氟化物似乎是根面龋病的预防和治疗方法。
PURPOSE
To review in a systematic approach the effectiveness of specific fluoride treatments on the root caries activity in adults.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
An electronic search of the National Library of Medicine, Washington DC (Medline-PubMed), and the specialist trials register of the Cochrane Oral Health Group up to and including April 2005 was performed using specific search terms to identify randomised controlled trials, controlled clinical trials and longitudinal studies of at least 3 months duration, which investigated the effect of specific fluoride treatments with regard to root caries activity and/or incidence in healthy adults. Comparisons were made against the root caries status before the initiation of the additional fluoride application regimen and between groups in controlled studies. The papers were screened independently by two reviewers (MH and SP).
RESULTS
Out of 348 titles and abstracts, six papers fulfilled the selection criteria and were processed for data extraction. The highest level of evidence was presented in the two papers using a double-blind controlled randomised clinical trial (Wallace et al, 1993; Baysan et al, 2001). Both these studies indicate that the increased application of fluoride in the form of a high concentration dentifrice or additional mouthwash had a positive effect on the root caries incidence/severity.
CONCLUSION
Additional fluoride appears to be a preventive and therapeutic treatment for root caries.
