Response to Gary's query.

In response to your query  currently no areas within Thames Valley with artificially fluoridated water and there are no plans for water fluoridation in Thames Valley as dental hygiene across the three counties is relatively high.  Any plan to fluoridate the water supply would require a full public consultation.  It is for PCTs to decide whether to request that SHAs take forward fluoridation schemes in the first instance and we have had no such requests.

 

Kind regards
