Abstract
Determinations of fluoride content of enamel, dentin and cementum, mandible, femur and iliac crest of cadaver specimens were made. The cementum was found to contain the highest fluoride content of the calcified tissues examined. The correlation of the fluoride content of the cementum with that of the bones allows the calculation, with fair accuracy, of the fluoride content of bones from that of the cementum.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
