The tin and fluoride concentrations in surface layers of intact enamel
specimens were analytically determined after treatment with 8% SnF2
solutions at temperatures of 25, 45, 65, and 85 C. Significant increases in
fluoride uptake and particularly tin uptake in enamel correlated directly with the
temperature of the SnF 2 treatment.
