Automated calibration and Standard Addition

altFluoride plays an important role in dental health, with its presence in small quantities promoting the re-mineralization and strengthening of tooth enamel [1]. This occurs when hydroxyl ligands in the hydroxyapatite rod structure of the enamel are replaced by Fluoride. As a result of this and the deposition of calcium Fluoride on the enamel surface, the tooth surface can become stronger and more resistant to the destructive effects of plaque acid.

As a result of studies showing these beneficial effects of Fluoride, many countries have added Fluoride – in the form of hexafluosilicic acid (H2SiF6) - to their drinking water supplies. Fluoride is also present in many of the commercially available toothpastes, tooth-gel and mouth-wash products that are used around the world, as well as certain food-stuffs (tea for example).
