Determining the differential preferences of users of two fluoride-free water options in rural Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aim: In the Ethiopian Rift Valley, 8.5 million people depend on water sources with excessive fluoride. In one rural village, a fluoride-removal community filter was implemented; a personalized reminder was distributed to change people's behavior and ...

Dental fluorosis in the European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus): A review of the pathological changes in the enamel of fluorotic cheek teeth and the abnormal pattern of dental wear in affected dentitions

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 1, Page 166-186, January 2026.
Abstract This article reviews the pathological changes in the enamel of permanent mandibular cheek teeth and their sequelae in European roe deer from regions polluted by anthropogenic fluoride emissions. The primary (developmental) changes of fluorotic roe deer enamel are hypomineralization and microstructural aberrations, including enamel hypoplasia ...

Determinants of exclusive consumption of fluoride-free water: a cross-sectional household study in rural Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aim: The occurrence of high fluoride concentrations in the ground- and surface water all over the world leads to the risk of developing dental and skeletal fluorosis. In Ethiopia, 8 million people depend on water sources with excessive fluoride.

Precise modulation of dissolution, therapeutic ion release, and biocompatibility in bioactive glasses

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the controlled dissolution and ion release kinetics of multicomponent borate glasses within the borate anomaly, focusing on therapeutic ions such as calcium, zinc, and fluorine, which are critical in applications ranging from cancer therapy to bone regeneration and oral health.

The Differences of Remineralization Potential of Bioactive Resin Infiltration and Conventional Resin Infiltration on Artificial Demineralized Enamel

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Management of demineralized enamel has focused on the use of materials for remineralization. This study compared the remineralization potential of bioactive remineralizing resin (2R) with conventional resin (CR) infiltration on demineralized enamel.

Fluorosis: An Uncommon Cause of Quadriparesis

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Geriatrics, 2017
Fluorine is a double edged sword as its higher levels are linked with dental/skeletal fluorosis while its deficiency is associated with dental caries.1 Skeletal fluorosis may remain asymptomatic or may present with myeloradiculopathy secondary to cord ...

Fluoride Stimulates the Proliferation of Osteoclasts in vitro by Upregulating MCM3 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal Bioautomation, 2016
We have previously shown that the expression of the minichromosome maintenance protein 3 (MCM3) gene was upregulated in lymphocytes of patients with skeletal fluorosis.

Estimation of Total Daily Fluoride Intake in Europe and Correlation to Equivalent Doses in Epidemiological Studies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 2654-2663, December 2025.
ABSTRACT European populations are chronically exposed to fluoride, as fluoride is supplemented for caries prophylaxis and is furthermore present in some food sources. As there is evidence that fluoride exposure at drinking water concentrations above 1.5 mg/L is associated with lower IQ in children, total daily intake in Europe might be close to or ...
