Abstract

Dental erosion is a worldwide oral health problem. The incidence tendency is rising due to the consumption of acidic foods and soft drinks. Dental erosion is the cause of dentin hypersensitivity, leading to eating difficulties and consequently affects the quality of life. Nowadays, studies are conducted to find the strategies for dental erosion prevention. Fluoride varnish is a topical fluoride used by professional dental practitioners for preventing dental caries. This material is also capable of efficiently preventing dental erosion and reducing hypersensitivity. This literature review focuses on the mechanisms of dental erosion prevention by various types of fluorides, as well as the effectiveness of fluoride varnishes on the prevention of dental erosion. In vitro studies indicated that fluoride varnishes could prevent the initial stage of dental erosion. However, the lack of clinical evidence for supporting the dental erosion prevention capability of fluoride varnishes are still lacking and need further investigations.
