Fluoroses
Fluoroses refers to a group of conditions caused by excessive exposure to fluoride. This can result in dental fluorosis, characterized by discoloration and mottling of the teeth. Skeletal fluorosis is another form, where fluoride accumulates in the bones, leading to stiffness, pain, and deformities. Soft tissue fluorosis can affect organs and tissues throughout the body. Symptoms of fluoroses can vary depending on the severity of the condition and the individual's susceptibility to fluoride toxicity.
