Resumo

The appropriate use of fluorides, through topical application, water fluoridation, or exogenous supplementation, has been shown to be a positive factor in the prevention of dental caries and remineralization of teeth. This is true for individuals of all ages. The use of fluorides and fluoridation is endorsed by almost all professional health organizations as the most effective dental public health measure in existence.
