title: [Fluoridation of water in Europe. Review of the literature].
abstract: The numerous studies proving that fluoride administration, mainly via fluoridated water, is undoubtedly the most reliable, efficient and economic technique for the prevention of dental decay are considered. However we should not underestimate the existence of a certain degree of distrust among the public or certain technical and bureaucratic problems which can interfere with the diffusion of this method. The experiments conducted in some countries where water fluoridation has been introduced are also reviewed.
