For various reasons, the use of the more widely used fluoride vehicles--such as water, salt, and toothpastes--is not feasible in some communities. There is some theoretical and laboratory evidence to support the view that adding fluoride to sugar and sugar products has potential to reduce their cariogenic effect. However, the clinical evidence is minimal. The minimum concentration of fluoride in sugar which will bring about a caries-preventive effect needs to be determined. Logistical issues requiring investigation include the most efficient method of adding fluoride to sugar and the distribution and consumption patterns of sugar in target populations. The practical application of this knowledge to large populations is the priority focus of this investigation.
由于各种原因，在一些社区中，使用更为广泛的氟化物载体——如水、盐和牙膏——是不可行的。有一些理论和实验室证据支持在糖和糖制品中添加氟化物有可能降低其致龋作用的观点。然而，临床证据极少。需要确定能产生防龋效果的糖中氟化物的最低浓度。需要调查的后勤问题包括向糖中添加氟化物的最有效方法以及目标人群中糖的分布和消费模式。将这一知识实际应用于大量人群是本研究的优先重点。
