A sodium fluoride dental suspension for professional application,Colgate® Duraphat® Varnish is clinically proven for the prevention of caries. It is tinted for easy visualisation and sets rapidly on contact with saliva, making it quick and easy to apply. It covers teeth with a film of suspension which hardens in the presence of saliva. It then persists over the following hours to cause Fluoride to accumulate at a measurable depth in the tooth enamel.
