Caries development in permanent teeth · People of all ages in a community setting; the included caries studies were all in children aged 3 to 16 years
Initiation of water fluoridation (artificial or natural) may leads to lower caries in permanent teeth (change in DMFT) compared with low/non-fluoridated water (0.4 ppm fluoride or less) (low certainty).
