[Sodium fluoride controlled release system for intra buccal use].

Hydroxyapatite which has the same elemental chemical composition as natural bone and teeth is one of the promising raw material for the design of drug controlled release system in intrabuccal use. It is stable and biocompatible and widely used in orthopedics and odontology. So, in order to improve the administration of drugs for intrabuccal use, we have developped a fluoride controlled release delivering system.

Fluoride controlled release tablets for intrabuccal use.

We have developed a fluoride controlled release delivering system for intrabuccal use, permitting to reach high enough local concentrations for desirable therapeutic effect with minimal side effects. We have formulated tablets of 160-200mg intended to be fixed on a tooth. The tablets have a granular matrix composed of pure hydroxyapatite, Eudragit((R)) and/or ethylcellulose.

Elaboration and evaluation of an intraoral controlled release delivering system.

In order to improve the administration of drugs for all pathology of the oral cavity, we have developed an intraoral controlled release delivering system, permitting to reach high enough local concentrations for desirable therapeutic effect with minimal side effects. We have formulated tablets of 200 mg intended to be fixed on a tooth. These tablets resist food and drink attacks.

[Development and evaluation of an active substance controlled-release device for use in the oral cavity].

In order to improve drug administration for diseases of the oral cavity, we have developed an intraoral controlled release delivery system enabling local concentrations high enough for desirable therapeutic effect with minimal side effects. We have formulated 200 mg tablets to be fixed on a tooth. These tablets resist attacks by food and beverages.
