Abstract: Dental fluorosis is a developmental condition caused by excessive fluoride exposure during the formative years of enamel development. In endemic areas where fluoride levels in drinking water are high, the prevalence of dental fluorosis can be significant. This article explores the medical aspects of comprehensive prevention and treatment strategies for fluorosis in children, focusing on epidemiology, etiology, prevention methods, treatment options, and the importance of community education. Understanding these aspects is crucial for healthcare professionals working in endemic regions to mitigate the impact of fluorosis on children's oral health.
