Dental fluorosis is characterised by bilateral, diffuse, thin and horizontal white striations and stained plaque areas, with pitting and discolouration of the enamel in more severe case. It is caused by excess fluoride ingestion during tooth development and can have an impact on quality of life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the [read the full story…]
