A self-administered dental health program was initiated in Nelson County, VA., a fluoride-deficient community in October 1972. Children in the County's schools, under teacher supervision, chewed and ingested daily a 1 mg F tablet and rinsed weekly with a 0.2% NaF solution. A fluoride dentifrice was provided for ad libitum use at home. Baseline DMFS examinations were made of 2,138 children in the County's elementary, junior high, and senior high schools. Follow-up DMFS examinations were conducted at two-to-three year intervals. Final examinations were conducted in 1983 when the full effectiveness of the fluoride program could be assessed. In the fall of 1983, a sealant program was added to the ongoing fluoride program. Children who were 6, 7, 12, and 13 were eligible to have pit- and-fissure sealants applied. An initial screening to identify those tooth surfaces to be sealed was made in December 1983. Caries data (DMFS) from the September 1983 dental examination served as a baseline for those children who participated in the sealant phase of the study. In succeeding years, new groups of 6 and 12 year olds were enrolled. Treatments continued for four years. Interim dental examinations took place at the start of the third year of the study (September 1985) and final examinations were made in September 1987. Descriptive analysis is complete and a manuscript is in review.

在纳尔逊启动了一项自我管理的牙齿健康计划 1972年10月，弗吉尼亚州县，一个缺氟社区。儿童 在县里的学校里，在老师的监督下，咀嚼和吞食 每日1毫克氟片，每周用0.2%氟化钠溶液冲洗。一个 氟化物牙膏可在家中随意使用。基线 对该县2138名儿童进行了DMFS检查 小学、初中和高中。后续DMFS 检查每隔两至三年进行一次。最终 考试是在1983年进行的，当时 可以对氟规划进行评估。 1983年秋天，一项密封剂计划被添加到正在进行的氟化物中 程序。6岁、7岁、12岁和13岁的儿童有资格获得PIT- 并应用了裂隙封闭剂。初步筛查以确定 待密封的齿面制作于1983年12月。龋齿数据 (DMFS)以1983年9月牙科检查的结果为基准 对于那些参与研究密封剂阶段的儿童。 在接下来的几年里，新的6岁和12岁的儿童被招募进来。 治疗持续了四年。进行中期牙科检查 在研究的第三年开始时(1985年9月)和 期末考试于1987年9月进行。描述性分析是 全部完成，手稿正在审查中。
