Abstract:
California's population receiving the benefits of fluoridated public water supplies has increased from 15.7 percent to 62.1 percent in the past 20 years. This growth has been achieved through a broad-based coalition of organizations and individuals, starting with the creation of the California Fluoridation Task Force in 1994 and supported by the California Fluoridation Act of 1995. This paper describes the process whereby the most recent gains have been made in San Diego and are ongoing in San Jose.
