38
Fl used in presence of tooth colored and porcelain restorations
Sodium Fl
39
contraindicated in presence of tooth colored restorations and porcelain, etches glass components causing surface roughening over time

41
if
administer Fl binding agent
42
if >5 mg/kg (toxic dose) of Fl is ingested you should
induce vomiting, administer Fl binding agent, seek medical tx
