Aim: This study determined the prevalence of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) and its association with dental fluorosis and caries in children living in rural areas in north-eastern Brazil who are exposed to residual fluoride (F) levels in the drinking water.
Design: A census was carried out with 610 schoolchildren aged 6 to 12 years. The European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry criteria, Thysltrup and Fejerskov index, and World Health Organization index were used for diagnosis of MIH, dental fluorosis, and caries detection, respectively.
