Predisposition to caries in hamsters following the Erosire effect of a commercial citrus beverage administered with and without supplemental fluoride.

Abstract
A study was undertaken to investigate the effect of a citrus beverage on tooth erosion and predisposition to caries in hamster molars, and to determine if a supplement of 1.9 ppm fluoride to the beverage influences these systems. Results suggest that enamel erosion is a predisposing factor. The addition of physiological fluoride protects the enamel from erosion and caries.
