The Conclusion of a Ten-Year Study of Water Fluoridation.

March 1956 | American Journal of Public Health and the Nations Health | Ast DB, Schlesinger ER. | 46(3): 265–271.
Note: The Tables are not included in the text below. See the full study. In areas where the potable water supplies contain the fluoride ion at optimum concentration at the source, the dental caries experience of children who ingest these water fluorides during the years of tooth development is about 60 per cent less than among children in areas with fluoride deficient water supplies.1 Adults who have used such water supplies continuously enjoy the dental benefits obtained during childhood.2
