Scanning electron micrographs showed that the reaction products formed on enamel surfaces increased with prolonged immersion time. Sn 3 F 3 PO 4 crystals and other amorphous and platelike reaction products were present. These findings corroborate the data obtained from similar samples by electron microprobe analyses.
