title: [Acidogenesis and fluoride].
abstract: The Authors consider the inhibition of acidogenesis in the dental plaque by topical application of fluoride. After an examination of the actions of fluoride on the bacterial component of dental plaque, the Authors come to the conclusion that inhibition of acidogenesis is one of the possible anticaries mechanism of topical fluoride.
