Abstract
Community water fluoridation has been shown to save money, both for families and the health care system. Fluoride benefits children and adults throughout their lives; leading to fewer and less severe cavities, fewer fillings and extractions, less pain and suffering from tooth decay. This project looks into the public sentiment in Greenfield, MA surrounding fluoride and works to promote fluoride varnish treatment at doctors visits for children ages 6 months to 5 years of age. Also included is an information sheet with an oral health questionnaire that would help guide patients and physicians towards better oral health.
