Methods: One hundred and ninety four children from 13 villages were grouped according to the water fluoride levels: low fluoride (LF, ,0.2 ppm F, 96 children) and moderate fluoride (MF, 0.7–1.0 ppm F, 98 children). Caries and oral hygiene (OHI-S) were scored according to WHO criteria. Sugar intake was assessed through interviews.Blackwell Synergy2000Koleksi Audio Visual Bahasa Inggrishttp://oaipmh-jogjalib.umy.ac.idkatalog.php?opo=lihatDetilKatalog&id=93039
