Background InformationStreptolossus particular (SP) is a novel bacterial strain that causes a highly severe disease in adults. (Note that this bacteria is entirely fictional). It results in immunity that we know lasts at least 2 years. In children, infection leads to asymptomatic infection. A vaccine is available for SP (vaccine alpha) which prevents infection. As this is a new bacterial strain, there are limited doses of vaccine alpha. SP is ...
BackgroundFor many years, topical use of fluorides has gained greater popularity than systemic use of fluorides. A possible adverse eHect associated with the use of topical fluoride is the development of dental fluorosis due to the ingestion of excessive fluoride by young children with developing teeth. To describe the relationship between the use of topical fluorides in young children and the risk of developing dental fluorosis. Elect...
