Abstract
The use of fluorides to address dental caries experience in populations was one of the biggest successes of public health in the twentieth century. The widespread use of fluorides also brought fluorosis to areas that otherwise would not be affected. This chapter briefly discusses the impact of fluorides on dental caries and amelogenesis and emphasizes the impact of fluorides on genes that are relevant to amelogenesis, dental caries, erosive tooth wear, and fluorosis.
期刊介绍:
For two decades, ‘Monographs in Oral Science’ has provided a source of in-depth discussion of selected topics in the sciences related to stomatology. Senior investigators are invited to present expanded contributions in their fields of special expertise. The topics chosen are those which have generated a long-standing interest, and on which new conceptual insights or innovative biotechnology are making considerable impact. Authors are selected on the basis of having made lasting contributions to their chosen field and their willingness to share their findings with others.
