    Objective: A new fluoride varnish (Embrace™) containing xylitol-coated calcium and phosphate (CXP™) claims to release ten times more fluoride over a four-hour period than leading fluoride varnishes. The purpose of this study was to compare the quantity and rate of fluoride release from enamel of a newly marketed fluoride varnish compared to three other fluoride systems. Study design: Human third molars were cut into sections and Embrace™, Enamel Pro®, Duraphat®, or Vanish™ fluoride varnish were applied to the enamel surfaces. Specimens were immersed in synthetic saliva which was replaced at tested intervals. The concentration of fluoride in ppm was measured after specified hourly intervals during the first week and then weekly until the limit of detection (LOD). Mean cumulative fluoride releas..
