Condition of mineralized tooth tissue in a population of 15-year-old adolescents living in a region of Ukraine with slightly exceeded fluorine concentration in the water.

Excerpt In the examined group, the average number of teeth with fluorosis was 7.59; 9.93 for girls and 5.08 for boys. Comparing the tests results, it was concluded that there were more teeth with fluorosis in the population of girls (median: 7; interquartile range: 4–16) than in the population of boys (median: 4; interquartile range: […]

Fluoride exposure and sleep patterns among older adolescents in the United States: a cross-sectional study of NHANES 2015–2016.

Abstract Background Fluoride from environmental sources accumulates preferentially in the pineal gland which produces melatonin, the hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. However, the effects of fluoride on sleep regulation remain unknown. This population-based study examined whether chronic low-level fluoride exposure is associated with sleep patterns and daytime sleepiness among older adolescents in the United […]
