Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral which is present in trace amounts in soil, plants, water and food, and at optimal levels helps to prevent cavities by keeping teeth strong. Countries take a range of approaches to ensure fluoride is provided to children - some countries add fluoride to...
Sixty-seven children from Teresina, Piau, Brazil, took part in this study. The city's water supply was optimally fluoridated. The duplicate-diet method was used to determine the fluoride intake from diet. The intake of fluoride from dentifrice was determined by subtracting the amount of ...
Rather than wielding a hammer, Brown recommends using a scalpel. Instead of eliminating fluoride from drinking water entirely, Brown says there needs to be more monitoring of fluoride levels nationwide. It would ensure people with less care receive the benefits of fluoride while providing information ...
Residents close to production and processing facilities using fluoride compounds may also be exposed to low levels of fluorides. In the past, most cases of acute fluoride toxicity have followed accidental ingestion of sodium fluoride-based insecticides or rodenticides. In contrast, currently, most ...
High fluoride groundwaters are present especially in the hard rock areas south of the Ganges valley and in the arid north-western part of the country. The phenomenon is related to groundwater with residual alkalinity levels. In southern India, Mg seems to be controlled by dolomite, while ...
To investigate posssible effects of systemic fluoride exposure on fetal development in humans, we compared the cord blood proteomes from second trimester pregnant women residing in communities with various levels of water fluoridation in northern California. The placenta forms a barrier to macromolecules...
Fluoride (F−) in groundwater can be beneficial for human health within a specific range; however, when the concentration is too low or high, it can have adverse effects. Low levels of fluoride in groundwater can lead to dental caries and poor bone development, while excessive intake can ...

Experts have long said that washing teeth with fluoride is not comparable to the risks posed by ingesting fluoride, with the latter potentially triggering harmful neurotoxic effects. Officials lowered their recommendation for drinking water fluoride levels in 2015 to address a tooth condition called fluo...
