Effect of Water Solids on Dental Caries in the Rat

Abstract
Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a cariogenic diet supplemented by water solids from a low caries area of NW Ohio, USA. Experimental animals had significantly less caries than control animals fed a nonsupplemented diet. The water used was high in F, B, Li, Mo and Sr. Water minerals from NW Ohio may act synergistically with fluoride in reducing caries prevalence.
