Water Fluoride Analysis

Sterile water dropHSC-BCD's Sterilization Monitoring Services provide fluoride analysis of drinking water samples. It is important to have an appropriate amount of fluoride in the water we drink to reduce tooth decay. The amount of fluoride we get depends on how much water we drink, which is strongly influenced by the climate we live in.

Lower consumption of fluoride can result in tooth decay. It is also possible to get too much fluoride, which may cause fluorosis of teeth, resulting in opaque white spots, or in more severe cases, brown staining or mottling of the enamel.
