Book excerpt: Abstract: This publication discusses salt flouridation as a means of preventing dental caries. The state of dental health in the Americas is reviewed and the results of two conferences on salt flouridation are examined. Topics include: salt flouridation in various countries; epidemiologic nutritional, and metabolic aspects of salt flouridation; sociopolitical, economic, and educational aspects of salt flouridation; and monitoring, supervision, and safety of salt flouridation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aim: To investigate the effectiveness of and views on school milk fluoridation schemes in England. Method: The impact of process variables on the effectiveness of milk fluoridation (MF) schemes, in terms of caries reduction, was investigated using a modelling approach. Water fluoridation was used as a surrogate for a notional, ideal MF scheme in which no process variables operate to reduce effectiveness. A predictive tool was developed to estimate the potential caries reduction of water fluoridation and then used to estimate caries reduction for a typical MF scheme with process variables. Data on process variables in MF schemes, which included parental consent, loss of children from the scheme, absence rate, number of days milk was consumed and the daily volume children drank, were collected and sensitivity analysis used to model the caries reduction compared with an ideal MF scheme and with water fluoridation. The effect of socio-economic status on some process variables was also investigated. The reasons why process variables impede the effectiveness of MF schemes and how best to reduce these effects were also investigated, by examining the perceptions and views of those involved in MF schemes on the barriers and potential solutions to optimizing these variables. Seventy two participants were interviewed using focus groups and one to one interviews. Thematic content analysis was used to analyze themes arising from interviews with health professionals. These themes were used to draft the preliminary topic guide for interviews with school participants. Analysis of the interview transcripts in the school setting was based on the grounded theory approach. Results and key findings: Process variables reduce the effectiveness of school MF schemes to 24% of an ideal MF scheme by the time children are 7 years old, and to 12% by the age of 11 years. The modelled relative improvement in caries experience in a typical MF scheme was 2.0% (0.48% absolute improvement in caries free) in the permanent dentition at age 11 years. Some potential solutions to optimizing process variables in MF schemes were identified. The emerging theory was the need for engagement with the MF scheme in schools for optimizing process variables using a whole school approach. However, there are significant barriers to optimal performance, not easily amenable to change. Conclusions: Modelling suggests that under the present implementation arrangements, there is significant cause for concern about the effectiveness of MF schemes. Engagement in MF schemes using a whole school approach is a potential solution for optimizing performance. However barriers outside the influence of schools and peTs may mean that MF schemes are seriously flawed as a public health intervention delivered in schools. A health economic evaluation is needed to compare MF schemes with alternative caries prevention interventions in the school setting before a large amount of resources is put into trying to address these issues.

This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides up-to-date information on the rationale for the use of fluoride in dentistry This volume brings together current concepts relating to the use of fluoride in dentistry. In contributions written by expert authors, data from this large and complex field have been assembled into a clear sequence and presented in a lucid fashion. The first section deals with the sources of fluoride intake and its metabolism, in order to fully understand fluoride toxicity and the importance of monitoring intake. The second section focuses in more detail on modes of fluoride application and the mechanisms by which this ion interacts with the oral environment to cause a remarkable reduction in dental caries. The role of fluoride in the prevention of dental erosion is also elucidated. The complex mechanisms by which fluoride exerts its effects are described with clarity and the entire text is accompanied by particularly useful illustrations. As a clear up-to-date summary of current thinking in the field, this book will be essential reading for research workers and postgraduate students. Established researchers and teachers in both clinical and basic sciences will find it to be a valuable addition to their libraries, and clinicians will be able to better evaluate the current scientific evidence on the advantages as well as the hazards of fluoride in dentistry.
