Abstract
The use of fluoride dentifrices in Curitiba (Brazil) was studied. The scholarity and socio-economical levels of the population were related to the use of fluoride dentifrices. The sample was composed of 155 persons, men and women. The results showed that 96.8% used dentifrices, but only 36.2% used fluoride dentifrices. The use of fluoride dentifrices was more significant among the higher socioeconomical and school levels.
