Methods Five combinations of dentifrices and quantities were tested: placebo (P–F-free) applied on all brush bristles; LFD applied by the transversal technique (0.3 g–T1) or on all bristles (0.6 g–T2); and CD applied in a pea-sized amount (0.15 g–T3) or by the transversal technique (0.3 g–T4), in order to produce comparable intensities (F concentration in the dentifrice × amount applied to the brush). Volunteers (n = 13, 20–36 years old) wore palatal devices containing 4 bovine enamel blocks, and performed cariogenic challenges (30% sucrose solution) 6×/day, and brushing 3×/day, following a double-blind, cross-over and randomized protocol. On the 8th day, biofilm was collected 5 and 60 min after brushing. The percentage of surface hardness loss (%SH), integrated loss of subsurface hardness (ΔKHN) and biofilm F concentrations (solid and fluid phases) were determined. Data were analyzed by repeated-measures ANOVA, Student-Newman-Keuls test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient (p < 0.05). Results Significantly lower ΔKHN was observed for treatments with higher intensity (T2 and T4) in comparison with the lower intensity (T1 and T3). A strong correlation was observed between ΔKHN and F concentrations in total biofilm (r = −0.71) and biofilm fluid (r = −0.72) 5 min after brushing. Conclusions The treatment intensity has a significant influence on the development of caries lesions in situ. Clinical significance: The intensity of treatment (amount of dentifrice × concentration) during brushing seems to be a more relevant parameter of clinical efficacy than simply observing the F concentration of the product. The use of a small amount of CD significantly reduced the protective effects against enamel demineralization.
