Explanation:
Three principal mechanisms by which fluoride is considered to inhibit dental caries have been identified'. It reduces the enamel solubility in acid by pre- eruptive incorporation into the hydroxyapatite crystal. It promotes remineralisation and inhibits demineralisation of early carious lesions.
