Background: The effectiveness of the application of topical fluorides in prevention of erosive tooth wear has been an issue of controversy in the literature. The objective of this systematic review was to assess in situ studies investigating the effects of using topical fluorides on prevention of erosive tooth wear.
Material And Methods: Two electronic databases PubMed/MEDLINE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched.
The study question was whether the use of high-viscosity glass-ionomer with chlorhexidine (HVGIC/CHX) for the Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) prepared cavities could achieve a higher restoration survival percentage and be more effective for preventing dentine carious lesions adjacent to the restoration than the use of HVGIC without CHX. The study followed a split-mouth, quadruple-blind, randomized controlled clinical design and lasted 2 years. Patients with at least two small- to medium-sized occlusal cavities were included.

Methods: Two resin cements, Tetric Flow and Nexus 2, were applied to CAD/CAM Cerec Vitablocs with six bonding strategies: (1) HF-etching and silanization, (2) HF-etching, silanization and application of a hydrophilic bonding agent, (3) HF-etching, silanization and application of a hydrophobic bonding agent, (4) H3PO4-treatment and silanization, (5) H3PO4-treatment, silanization and application of a hydrophilic bonding agent, and (6) H3PO4-treatment, silanization and application of a hydrophobic bonding agent. The hydrophilic agents were Syntac Single-Component and OptiBond Solo Plus.
