Fluorine and sugar debated in tooth decay study
A British Medical Research Council report finds sugar in ordinary diets does not hasten tooth decay in children aged two to 24 in three cities.

The report also links thyroid activity to decay risk and mentions Eskimos and developing regions with varying decay rates. It closes by underscoring fluorine as key to enamel and dentine health.
