{"product_id":"2940013518735","title":"Recommendations for Using Fluoride to Prevent and Control Dental Caries in the United States","description":"Widespread use of fluoride has been a major factor in the decline in the\u003cbr\u003eprevalence and severity of dental caries (i.e., tooth decay) in the United States and other economically developed countries. When used appropriately, fluoride is both safe and effective in preventing and controlling dental caries. All U.S.\u003cbr\u003eresidents are likely exposed to some degree to fluoride, which is available from\u003cbr\u003emultiple sources. Both health-care professionals and the public have sought\u003cbr\u003eguidance on selecting the best way to provide and receive fluoride. During the late 1990s, CDC convened a work group to develop recommendations for using\u003cbr\u003efluoride to prevent and control dental caries in the United States. This report\u003cbr\u003eincludes these recommendations, as well as a) critical analysis of the scientific\u003cbr\u003eevidence regarding the efficacy and effectiveness of fluoride modalities in\u003cbr\u003epreventing and controlling dental caries, b) ordinal grading of the quality of the\u003cbr\u003eevidence, and c) assessment of the strength of each recommendation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe recommendations in this report guide dental and other health-care\u003cbr\u003eproviders, public health officials, policy makers, and the public in the use of\u003cbr\u003efluoride to achieve maximum protection against dental caries while using\u003cbr\u003eresources efficiently and reducing the likelihood of enamel fluorosis. The\u003cbr\u003erecommendations address public health and professional practice, self-care,\u003cbr\u003econsumer product industries and health agencies, and further research. Adoption of these recommendations could further reduce dental caries in the United States and save public and private resources.","brand":"1001 Property Solutions LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47165259022576,"sku":"2940013518735","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013518735_p0.jpg?v=1763582268","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013518735","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
