To assess the fluoride concentration of different commercially available mouthrinses in central Saudi Arabia, and compare the obtained measurements with label values.
This cross-sectional study identified 25 brands of mouthrinses in the markets of Riyadh city between August and September 2013. Nineteen brands of mouthrinses whose labels indicate the percentage of sodium fluoride (NaF) and 6 brands not indicating the fluoride percentage were included in the study. Three bottles of 2 manufacturing batches of each brand were acquired, coded, and analyzed after dilution using specific electrodes for fluoride and an ion analyzer at the College of Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The average fluoride concentrations in the tested mouthrinses ranged from 8.4 ppm (Voza) to 448.7 ppm (Sensodyne Pronamel). Analysis of variance showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in the fluoride concentration between the studied 25 brands. Almost 60% of the brands' fluoride concentrations were significantly different (mainly lower) from the label value. However, only 5 brands contain fluoride at a concentration not significantly different from the recommended fluoride concentration in daily mouthrinses 0.05% (225 ppm).
Most of the studied commercially available mouthrinses contain topical fluoride at concentrations below the manufacturers' label value, but above the recommended 0.05%.
评估沙特阿拉伯中部不同市售漱口水的氟化物浓度,并将所得测量值与标签值进行比较。
这项横断面研究于2013年8月至9月在利雅得市市场上确定了25个品牌的漱口水。该研究纳入了19个标签标明氟化钠(NaF)百分比的漱口水品牌和6个未标明氟化物百分比的品牌。获取每个品牌2个生产批次的3瓶漱口水,进行编码,并在沙特阿拉伯利雅得国王沙特大学理学院使用特定的氟化物电极和离子分析仪稀释后进行分析。
受试漱口中的平均氟化物浓度范围为8.4 ppm(Voza)至448.7 ppm(舒适达专业护理)。方差分析显示,所研究的25个品牌之间的氟化物浓度存在统计学显著差异(p<0.05)。几乎60%的品牌氟化物浓度与标签值存在显著差异(主要较低)。然而,只有5个品牌的氟化物浓度与每日漱口水推荐的氟化物浓度0.05%(225 ppm)无显著差异。
大多数所研究的市售漱口水所含局部用氟化物浓度低于制造商标签值,但高于推荐的0.05%。
