EndodonticsIn fluorosis stain removal using microabrasion technique, both statements are correct: 1% ether is used to remove surface debris and organic pellicle from the tooth surface, preparing it for the etching procedure. 36% hydrochloric acid etches the enamel surface, removing the superficial fluorotic stains by creating micro-porosities. This combination technique (enamel microabrasion) effectively removes localized fluorosis stains from the outer enamel layer.

Public Health DentistryDental plaque is a bacterial biofilm that forms on the teeth and is a common factor in the development of both dental caries and periodontal disease. While fluoride in drinking water can help prevent dental caries, it is not directly related to periodontal disease. Nutritional disturbances can affect the overall health of the individual but are not the sole cause of either condition. Disturbed occlusion may be a risk factor for certain dental issues but is not universally common to both diseases.
