What is the evidence that fluoride works to prevent dental caries?

Howard F. Pollick

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of the U.S. Public Health Service conducted an excellent review of scientific articles on the use of fluorides for the prevention and control of dental caries in the United States [1]. That review is quoted here extensively as the basis to describe the evidence that fluoride works to prevent dental caries. Since fluoridated salt is not available in the U.S., other references have been used to examine the evidence that the use of fluoridated salt also works to prevent dental caries.
