| Research Abstract |
In Japan, there is no water fluoridation. We investigated what was the mother’s risk perception about water fluoridation. In addition, we investigated the opinions of dental personnel why it was not carried out, and how could it be implemented. We found a consensus opinion in the two investigations. It was to use water adjusted to the optimal fluoride concentration decreased the risk perception, and dental personnel proposed that we recommended the patients to drink water adjusted to the optimal fluoride concentration in the waiting room of dental clinic.
