Fluoride Calculation Numbers - %

% = (grams / 100mL) Ex: 2.26% = 2.26 grams / 100mL so.... 2260 mg / 100mL

Fluoride Rx Example

----8-Month Old Residing in FLUORIDE DEFICIENT area Rx: Sodium Fluoride Soln (0.125mgF/drop) Disp: 40mg Sig: Before bed time dispense 2 drops of liquid in mouth. ----6-Year Old Residing in FLUORIDE DEFICIENT area Rx: Sodium fluoride tablets (1mgF/tablet) Disp: 120 tablets Sig: Before bed time after thorough brushing, chew one tablet, swish and swallow.

Home fluoride gels

0.5%

Fluoridated Water

0.7 PPM

Acidulated Fluoride

Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride (APF) 1.23% 12,300 PPM

Fluoride Rx Formulations

Drops come in 0.125mg/drop Tabs come in 1.00g / tab

How much fluoride is in Toothpaste (mg of F)

In a 7.8oz (221g) tube with 0.24% NaF. (1) to calculate mg of F % = g/100mL - 7.8oz = 230.67mL NaF - F = 19/42 = 0.45238 0.24% = .24g/100mL = 240mg/100mL 230.67mL/100mL = 2.3067 2.3067x240mg = 553.608mg of NaF in a 7.8oz 553.608mg NaF x 0.45238 = 250.44mg F

How much fluoride is in Toothpaste (ppm of F)

In a 7.8oz (221g) tube with 0.24% NaF. (1) to calculate ppm of F NaF - F = 19/42 = 0.45238 0.45238 x 0.24% NaF = 0.1085% F 0.1085% F x 10,000 = 1085 ppm F

Fluoride Calculation Numbers - pph (%) to ppm

Multiple pph (%) by 10,000 to get ppm Ex: 2.26% x 10,000 = 22,600 ppm

Fluoride Calculation Numbers - Atomic Weights

NaF - Na = 23, F = 19 Ex: F in NaF = 19/42

Sodium Fluoride Varnish

NaF Varnish 2.26% 22,600 PPM
