| | Olaflur Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Olaflur (amine fluoride 297, trade name elmex gel) is a fluoride-containing substance that is an ingredient of toothpastes and solutions for the prevention of dental caries. Especially in combination with dectaflur, it is also used in the form of gels for the treatment of early stages of caries, sensitive teeth, and by dentists for the refluoridation of damaged tooth enamel. Olaflur is a salt consisting of an alkyl ammonium cation and fluoride as the counterion. With a long lipophilic hydrocarbon chain, the cation has surfactant properties. It forms a film layer on the surface of teeth, which facilitates incorporation of fluoride into the enamel. The top layers of the enamel's primary mineral, hydroxylapatite, are converted into the more robust fluorapatite. The fluoridation reaches only a depth of a few nanometres, which has raised doubts whether the mechanism really relies on the formation of fluorapatite. | | Uses | Olaflur is used used for reduction of tooth staining derived from oral care compositions comprising cationic antimicrobials. | | Uses | Dental caries prophylactic. | | Definition | OLAFLUR is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of II. Olaflur which is also referred to as elmex gel is an ingredient used in toothpaste which helps in the prevention of dental caries. |
