How calcium is made available to the tooth.

Calcium and phosphate are naturally occurring components of saliva long associated with maintaining healthy teeth. The Tri-Calcium Phosphate in Vanish™ 5% Sodium Fluoride White Varnish with TCP is milled to create a protective coating which ensures undesired interactions between calcium and phosphate and calcium and fluoride do not occur throughout the shelf life of the varnish. However‚ when Vanish white varnish is applied to the tooth surface‚ the coating is slowly dissolved by saliva‚ allowing the protected calcium component to be released in parallel with fluoride ions.

Vanish varnish releases calcium

Saliva activates the protected calcium compound at the tooth surface‚ causing it to be released together with fluoride.

Releases calcium.

Products that provide both fluoride and calcium are designed to help increase formation of calcium fluoride on tooth surfaces‚ including dentin tubules‚ to aid in the prevention of cavities.

Cumulative Calcium Release

Vanish varnish cumulative calcium release

After application‚ Vanish™ 5% Sodium Fluoride White Varnish continues to release calcium ions over at least 24 hours.
