[Comparison of Czechoslovak and foreign toothpastes].

The authors made a nation-wide investigation focused on the consumption of foreign toothpastes and their evaluation, as compared with locally produced ones. They also assessed the properties of selected foreign toothpastes according to the Czechoslovak norm by laboratory tests. The investigation related that foreign toothpastes are purchased by one quarter of the subjects where enquiries were made. The main reason for selection of a foreign toothpaste was better taste and a better sensation of fragrance. People appreciate also the attractivity packing and adequate information on the properties and composition of the toothpaste. As compared with local toothpastes, the better taste of foreign ones is emphasized. Laboratory tests of the properties of foreign tooth pastes, as compared with local revealed that from the physico-chemical and microbiological aspect local toothpastes compare favourably with foreign ones. However, the organoleptic properties, packing and information are not comparable.

[Czechoslovak toothpaste--present choice, consumption, quality].

The authors made a nation-wide survey focused on the choice, appreciation of different properties of toothpastes and the popularity of different brands. They also evaluated the quality of some toothpastes according to Czechoslovak standards. The results revealed that the attitude of the public as regards toothpastes is correct. The great majority of subjects consider fluorine and therapeutic substances an important part of toothpastes. The majority of subjects are satisfied with the supply, one third of the people complain that some types are in short supply. More than half the subjects ask for toothpastes with texts providing information. The majority of toothpastes met the demand defined by the Czechoslovak standards. Some shortcomings were revealed during organoleptic evaluation and in the technology of production. The authors discuss the small consumption of toothpastes which must be increased by the health educational activities of dental surgeons but also by increased attention of manufactures and the network of shops to the technology, distribution and propagation of toothpastes.

[Quality of marginal sealing of Evicrol fillings when using dental adhesives in vitro].

The quality of the marginal sealing of fillings made from Evicrol in vitro was investigated by means of a couloured indicator. The close adherence of the composite filing to the surface of the tooth was ensured by the by micro retention treatment of the marginal enamel and different dentin adhesives. The thermal strain of filling materials and their combination with the tooth, corresponding roughly to conditions in the oral cavity, was modelled by cyclic temperature changes using a special apparatus designed by the authors.
