Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Significantly higher concentrations of fluoride in the biofilm fluid were found 1 hr after the toothbrushing compared to 12 h (p <0.01). However, no significant differences were seen between the dentifrices with different viscosities.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Significant differences between the dentifrice could be found if their viscosity was quite different. Higher concentrations of F in dentifrices can lead to significant differences if their viscosity was very different. Higher concentrations of F in the dentifrices can lead to different results regarding the effect on the incorporation of F in the biofilm according to the viscosity.
