Abstract

The association of fluoride and the reduction of dental caries is well established and the usefulness of water fluoridation as a community health measure has been acknowledged and proved. This article considers the metabolism of fluoride by the tooth physiologically and therapeutically and examines the theories and evidence of fluoride action with the aim of instituting a rationalised preventive programme for patients with dental caries.
