Abstract

Topical applications of 10 mM CuF2, 10 mM CuSO4, or 20 mM NaF solutions were performed twice a day in hamsters infected with S. mutans and maintained on a high sucrose diet. Animals receiving the copper compounds exhibited lower plaque scores than control animals or animals treated with the NaF solution. The group receiving the CuF2 solution showed a lower number of S. mutans and a higher caries reduction than the groups treated with NaF or the non-fluoride compound CuSO4.
