The fluoride enhances the strength of teeth by the formation of fluorapatite, a naturally occurring component of tooth enamel. Although sodium fluoride is also used to fluoridate water and, indeed, is the standard by which other water-fluoridation compounds are gauged, hexafluorosilicic acid (h2sif6) and its salt sodium hexafluorosilicate (na2sif6) are more commonly used additives in the u.s. Toothpaste often contains sodium fluoride to prevent cavities, although tin(ii) fluoride is generally considered superior.
