0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing vs Sealants plus fluoride varnish (with or without restorations)

Arrest or reversal of noncavitated occlusal carious lesions · Children and adults with noncavitated carious lesions on occlusal surfaces (primary and permanent teeth)

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing was probably less effective than Sealant + 5% NaF varnish for arrest or reversal of occlusal carious lesions (RR 0.58, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.79; moderate certainty).

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing vs Fluoride varnish

Arrest or reversal of noncavitated occlusal carious lesions · Children and adults with noncavitated carious lesions on occlusal surfaces (primary and permanent teeth)

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing may not differ from 5% NaF varnish for arrest or reversal of occlusal carious lesions (RR 0.99, 95% CI 0.84 to 1.15; low certainty).

Arrest or reversal of noncavitated occlusal carious lesions · Children and adults with noncavitated carious lesions on occlusal surfaces (primary and permanent teeth)

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing may not differ from 1.23% APF gel for arrest or reversal of occlusal carious lesions (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.68 to 1.22; low certainty).

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing vs no treatment

Arrest or reversal of noncavitated occlusal carious lesions · Children and adults with noncavitated carious lesions on occlusal surfaces (primary and permanent teeth)

0.2% NaF mouthrinse + supervised toothbrushing was probably more effective than no treatment for arrest or reversal of occlusal carious lesions (RR 1.94, 95% CI 1.54 to 2.46; moderate certainty).
