[Individualized supplementation of fluoride in primary pediatrics]

Problems found in the development of a program for individual supplementation of fluoride to infants and pre-school children in a primary pediatric outpatient unit are commented. Problems included knowledge of the level of fluoride in public water supply, in infant formulas and in mineral water used in their preparation and selection of a practical and regular method for supplying fluoride in the first year (having in mind other sources of fluoride) and in older children, and taking into account economic problems. Practical tables with the amount of fluoride in Spanish drinkable water, in commonly available infant formulas and mineral bottled waters, are shown.
