Methods RCT conducted in non‐fluoridated areas in UK.
Participants 1009 out of the potential 1318 children aged 8‐10 years old (who participated in a randomised controlled trial at 12 months old until 5‐6 years) were examined.

 Group 2: Fluoride toothpaste (1450 ppm) from 12 months of age to 5‐6 years of age (n = 513).
A sample of children who were not given toothpaste formed a third group and not included in this review.
Outcomes TFI assessed from photographic digital images.
Notes Intra‐examiner reliability (weighted Kappa = 0.73).
Data for the third group not used within this review.
Small discrepancies in the ORs estimates used in the review (generated by RevMan) compared to the original study.
