ADC Practice Question — CMS Fluoride Protocols

What is the COMPLETE home care fluoride protocol for…

Prevention and cariology questions test evidence-based decision-making — fluoride protocols, caries risk assessment, recall scheduling. This high-difficulty vignette tests your ability to work through clinical details and arrive at the correct management.

An 11-year-old at-risk-high recall patient (>1 new lesion/year) currently uses 1000 ppm toothpaste twice daily. He does not use fluoride rinse or CHX. He drinks non-fluoridated water. The dentist must prescribe the COMPLETE updated protocol across all domains. What is the COMPLETE home care fluoride protocol for this at-risk-high 11-year-old? Consider toothpaste, rinse, and CHX.

A. 5000 ppm toothpaste twice daily only — rinse and CHX are reserved for adults with hyposalivation
B. 1000 ppm toothpaste plus fluoride rinse once daily — CHX is contraindicated in children under 16
C. 5000 ppm toothpaste twice daily, fluoride rinse 0.05% NaF once daily at a separate time from brushing, plus CHX 0.2% once daily before bedtime
D. 5000 ppm toothpaste twice daily plus CHX 0.2% twice daily — fluoride rinse is not recommended alongside 5000 ppm
