Minerals play important role in our life especially in bone and tooth formation
Calcium which is more abundant at 99% in bone and teeth
Phosphorus occupy 80-90% in bone and tooth and magnesium 60% in bone and teeth, other mineral such as fluoride, zinc,copper,iron are also available in bone and teeth as well as in other tissues
And they have different sources
![Page 3: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Important minerals that provide benefits to your oral health are:
1.Calcium—Your teeth and jaw are mostly made out of calcium so consuming calcium on a regular basis helps keep your teeth enamel and jaw strong and healthy. Sources of Calcium: Milk, yogurt, cheese, beans and
kale
![Page 4: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
2.Iron—Consuming too little of iron can cause tongue inflammation or mouth sores. The main role of iron is to transport oxygen throughout your body so a lack of iron can also contribute to infections and bacteria build up in the mouth due to lack of oxygen flow in your body. Sources of Iron: Liver and red meat

3.Zinc—Zinc helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and the build-up of plaque along your gum line. Sources of Zinc: Wheat, cereal, wild rice, cheese, and
beef4.Magnesium—Magnesium helps to build strong enamel for your teeth and helps prevent the formation of cavities. Sources of Magnesium: Spinach, kale, dark chocolate

MINERAL ROLE SOURCE
Calcium Needed for tooth Milk, cheese, yogurt,
Phosphorous Magnesium
development, prevents loss of jaw bone and teeth, rebuilds hard surface of the teeth (enamel)
seafood, dark green leafy vegetables

Mineral deficiencies
iron.,zinc and copper play the following roles: Aid in collagen formation Wound healing Regulate inflammation Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, decreased
immunity, angular chelitis, glossitis ,pallor of lip and mucosa
Zinc deficiency cause loss of taste and smell,xerostomia,candidiasis,Periodontal diseases,caries

Calcium deficiency lead to osteopenia, osteoporosis, succeptibility to dental caries,increased tooth mobility, convulsion
Phosphorus w/c favour vit D absorption and bone &teeth formation,acid base balance
Phosphorus deficiency cause bone demineralization, calcium loss,succeptibility to caries
Copper deficiencies may lead to:osteoporosis, arthritits, lesion with connective tissues

Fluoride
Fluoride is the ionic form of the element fluorine.
Fluoride is a mineral found throughout the earth's crust and widely distributed in nature.
Found in soils rich in fluorspar,cryolite,and other minerals.

10
Sources
Small amounts:fruits,vegetables,cereals.
Rich amounts:sea foods and tea leaves.

11
Chief Source of Flouride.
Water Topical agents (toothpaste).
According to WHO
Flouridated Salt / Milk
![Page 12: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Distribution of Flourides.
Teeth and skeleton have the highest concentrations of fluoride.
--Due to the affinity of fluoride to calcium.
Fluoride content of teeth increases rapidly during early mineralization periods and continues to increase with age,but at as lower rate.
![Page 13: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Prevention of cavities by Flouride.
Two different ways: Fluoride concentrates in the growing bones and
developing teeth of children, helping to harden the enamel on baby and adult teeth before they emerge.
Fluoride helps to harden the enamel on adult teeth that have already emerged.
APPLICATIONS Topically (On the surface). Systematically (Throughout the body).
![Page 14: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Topical Flouride Sources.
Toothpaste. Mouthrinses. Professionally applied gels, foams, rinses. Our own saliva.
![Page 15: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Topical Applications.
Helps to Prevent.
Cavities by strengthening the surface of the teeth (the enamel).
Reducing the ability of bacteria contained in dental plaque to produce acid.
Re-mineralizing existing dental cavities.
Fluoride can actually heal small cavities in some cases, and prevent the need for dental fillings.

16
Systemically Flouride Sources.
Water and other beverages. Foods Drops Tablets Etc.
![Page 17: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Application of Systemically Flouride.
Strengthening of developing teeth from infancy to adolescence.
Strengthens teeth by the formation of harder enamel by converting HYDROXYAPATITE CRYSTALS to FLUORAPATITE.
Flourapatite is less vulnerable to damage from plaque acids
![Page 18: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Dental fluorosis?
Dental fluorosis is a developmental disturbance of dental enamel caused by excessive exposure to high concentrations of fluoride during tooth development.
Due to Inappropriate use of fluoride-containing dental products.
![Page 19: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Types of Dental Flourosis.
Mild Dental Flourosis (common). Sever Dental Flourosis.

20
Mild Dental Flourosis
Unnoticeable, tiny white streaks or specks in the enamel of the tooth.
![Page 21: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Sever Dental Flourosis.
Tooth appearance is marred by discoloration or brown markings.
Pitted Enamel, Rough and Hard to Clean.
The spots and stains left by fluorosis are permanent and may darken over time.

Severe Dental Flourosis. (Case 2)
![Page 24: oral health and mineral](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062405/555a9070d8b42a991b8b48ba/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Water Fluoridation.
Addition of Flouride to Public water Supply.
Community water fluoridation is safe and effective in preventing dental caries in both children and adults.
Water fluoridation benefits all residents served by community water supplies regardless of their social or economic status.
Fluoridation does not affect the appearance, taste or smell of drinking water.
