Aim:This study aimed to assess the microhardness of the enamel surface after fluoride varnish application. Materials and methods:Thymol of 0.1% in distilled water was used to store the collected healthy sixty teeth. The samples were divided into three groups randomly as per the different application of fluoride varnish. Group A: Fluor protector varnish (FIV) application, group B: Duraphat varnish application and group C: Bifluorid 10 varnish application. The present study followed the pH cycling protocol. Microhardness tester was used to test the microhardness of enamel surface and was expressed as microhardness measurements of Vickers hardness number (VHN) which was performed at baseline, on the 3rd day andon 7th day.Results: At baseline, group A samples mean SMH value was 230.64 ± 12.32 which was slightly more than groupB with 229.45 ± 10.22 and group C with 230.10 ± 11.45. There was no significant difference showed with the analysis of variance between the groups. On the 3rd day, there was a slight increase in the mean SMH in group A with 235.39 ± 6.44 and no significant difference between the groups was seen statistically. On the 7th day, the group A showed high SMH value of 262.20 ± 4.89 compared to other groups which didn't show a significantly high statistical difference. Conclusion:On conclusion, post-application of fluorprotector varnish showed higher enamel surface microhardness compared to Duraphat and Bifluorid 10 varnishes. Clinical significance:In young children, fluoride varnishes are effectively used as a noninvasive, anti-caries agent in the treatment of initial caries. Therefore, in routine dental practice, the knowledge about different fluoride varnishes is of importance.

in males and 0.22 in females, with standard deviation of 0.271 and 0.527. Loss of attachment was found to be nonsignificant between the groups (p = 0.086). Conclusion: Overall oral health knowledge among attendants was not as high as those compared with subjects belonging to other occupation and with different education level in previous literature.

Conclusion: The present study concluded that fracture resistance was more in zirconia posts than metal as well as glass posts in the teeth that have undergone endodontic therapy.
