About Sodium monoflurophosphate

A form of fluoride added to oral care products, Prophylatic in Dental caries.

Mechanism of Action of Sodium monoflurophosphate

Sodium monofluorophosphate is used in the treatment of dental caries.It is used as additive for toothpaste containing fluorine.
Adequate incorporation of fluoride into teeth hardens the outer layers of enamel and increases resistances to demineralization. (The bacteria that cause caries produce acid through the fermentation of carbohydrates, which can dissolve the carbonated hydroxyapatite mineral of teeth, a process called demineralization).
Incorporation of fluoride into apatite crystals reduces the dissolution of apatite during acid attacks. Fluoride interacts with hydroxyapatite to form the less acid soluble fluorhydroxyapatite. Fluorhydroxyapatite is more resistant to dissolution by the acids produced by bacteria found in plaque. Fluoride may also promote the remineralization of enamel in early caries. Finally fluoride may reduce oral concentrations of cariogenic bacteria or reduce the metabolism of bacteria in plaque
