Fluoride – a scoping review for Nordic Nutrition Recommendations 2023.
Fluoride has a well-documented role in the prevention and treatment of dental caries, but the mechanism is attributed to local effects on the tooth enamel surface rather than systemic effects. Fluoride is not considered essential for humans, no deficiencies are known, and no optimal range, which will not result in moderate fluorosis in some individuals, […]

Preplanned Studies: Spatial-Temporal Analysis of Drinking Water Type of Endemic Fluorosis — China, 2009–2022.
Drinking water type of endemic fluorosis, also known as drinking water fluorosis, is a chronic condition that occurs when individuals consume high-fluoride water over an extended period. This leads to the development of dental and skeletal fluorosis (1). Drinking water fluorosis is a global issue, affecting over 60 countries and regions. It poses a significant […]

Association between fluoride exposure in drinking water and cognitive deficits in children: A pilot study.
2.3.1. Children’s drawing tasks A total of 68 (37 males and 31 females) from the 74 children were enrolled and asked to participate in three drawing tasks of common objects that children readily encounter or experience in the study area, though their reproduction varies in complexity: a house, a person, and a donkey. They were […]

Assessment of Fluoride Content in Water and Its Impact on the Intelligence Quotient of School Children Aged 12–13 Years.
Introduction All around the world, endemic fluorosis has grown to frightening proportions. India is located in a fluoride belt. In 18 of the 32 Indian states, it is a serious public health issue. It has been shown that 177 or so districts are affected by high fluoride content in water. According to a United Nations […]

Monitoring and prediction of high fluoride concentrations in groundwater in Pakistan.
3.3. Health risk map A health risk map was made using the optimal cut-off value of 0.47 (Fig. 5). It identifies numerous densely populated regions where people rely on groundwater associated with high fluoride. In total, over 13 million people are estimated to be potentially affected by fluoride contamination in groundwater, which is 6.0% of […]

Effects of chronic fluorosis on the brain.
Highlights Reviewing the mechanism of brain injury caused by chronic fluorosis is of great significance for protecting residents in fluorosis endemic areas. Abstract This article reviews the effects of chronic fluorosis on the brain and possible mechanisms. We used PubMed, Medline and Cochraine databases to collect data on fluorosis, brain injury, and pathogenesis. A large […]
