N2 - The effects of ammonium hexafluorosilicate on the acid resistance of bovine enamel and dentin were analyzed. In the case of enamel specimens, shallower demineralized depth was found when the enamel specimens were treated with ammonium hexafluorosilicate or damine silver fluoride. It was also observed that all the fluoride solutions had abilities to reduce the demineralized depth in the case of dentin specimens. The result shows that ammonium hexafluorosilicate is useful to prevent enamel and dentin caries since ammonium hexafluorosilicate treatment increases acid resistance of enamel and dentin to the same degree with diamine silver fluoride without changing the tooth color.
