Fluoridated Sugar
Throughout the world many vehicles have been used to provide fluoride to the general population on community basis with the goal of reducing dental caries. Such vehicles included water, salt and milk which all proved to be effective in reducing dental caries through clinical and field trials.
Caries reduction through sugar fluoridation however is not yet widely accepted or implemented despite that it was first achieved successfully in 1979 in vivo in Finland. The following trial which was published in the Australian Dental Journal took place in Indonesia to study whether the usage of fluoridated sugar would decrease the level of dental caries among children.
