A new index for scoring dental fluorosis, denoted by TSlF, recently developed at the NlDR, was evaluated for reproducibility by the two examiners who performed the fluorosis is examinations. Each examiner was able to reproduce his fluorosis diagnosis upon repeated evaluation of participants. The examiners experienced some difficulty in agreeing between themselves, especially in making the differentiation between the presence or absence of the very mild form of fluorosis. In spite of the difference between examiners, this index was able to detect statistically different levels of fluorosis between groups having opitmal, 2, 3, and 4 times optimal levels of fluoride in their water supplies, after adjusting for examiner differences.

最近提出了一种新的氟斑牙评分指标TSLF， 在NIDR开发的，由两个 进行氟中毒检查的检查员。 每一位考官都是 能够重复他的氟中毒诊断后， 参与者 考官们很难达成一致意见 尤其是在区分 是否存在非常轻微的氟中毒。 尽管检查者之间存在差异，但该指数能够检测到 在具有最佳的氟中毒的组之间的氟中毒的统计学上不同的水平， 2，3，和4倍的最佳水平的氟化物在他们的供水， 调整考官的差异。
