Abstract

This 1984 survey focuses on the use of systemic fluoride supplements by North Carolina dentists. Respondents included all the state's pediatric dentists and general practitioners who assay water supplies before prescribing fluoride supplements, and other randomly selected general practitioners who treat children. Whether practicing in fluoridated or nonfluoridated communities, most dentists prescribed systemic fluoride supplements but only a small number of practitioners assayed water supplies before doing so.
