N2  - Aim: To assess the effectiveness of using fluoride-containing mouth rinse in preserving the integrity of hard tooth structures in high soda drinks consumers. Materials and Methods: 48 adult volunteers were recruited to participate in this study. The volunteers willing to participate in the trial were asked to complete a self-administrated questionnaire. They were asked to recall the frequency and amount of acidic foods and drinks consumed per day. The participants were divided into two groups according to the type of interventions used; fluoride- containing mouth rinse and placebo. Each group was evaluated at four different evaluation periods; at baseline, after 3 months, after 6 months and after 12 months. The intervention group was given fluoride-containing mouth rinse while the control group was given sodium chloride intravenous infusion to use as placebo mouth rinse. Both groups were instructed to use fluoride-containing tooth paste. Assessment of erosive tooth wear was done using the erosion index proposed by Lussi, while assessment of dental caries was done using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS). Statistical analysis was done using Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro-Wilk tests, Mann Whitney and Wilson signed rank test
