Methods: The average daily food intake was calculated and the fluoride amounts included in each food was examined through the past 5 reports. Fluoride amounts estimated by daily water intake and toothbrushing with dentifrice contaminated with 500 ppmF, were considered. Total amounts of daily fluoride by intake for young children and school children were estimated, in order to suggest to recommend the fluoride deficiency amount for prevention of dental caries as well as for helping growth and development.
Results: Average 167.30±2.92 μgF (0.167 mgF) was estimated for preschool children and 314.27±13.10 μgF (0.314 mgF) for school children in non-water fluoridated area. There was a significant difference in average amount of fluoride intake, between in preschool children and school children (p＜0.05).
Condulusion: 1. It was estimated that the average 167.30±2.92 μgF (0.167±0.292 mgF) in young children and 314.27±13.10 μgF (0.314±0.131 mgF) were intake through the diet, water and tooth brushing, daily, and there was significantly different the amounts intake by young children and by school children, statistically (p＜0.05). 2.
