[Biological basis of fluoride resistance].
The authors synthetically illustrate some fundamental concepts about the mechanisms through which the oral flora develops fluoride resistance and the main consequences of this phenomenon at a biochemical and microbiological level. They briefly discuss the most recent experimental contributes of the literature in this field.
