In the present study the collected data was retrieved, presented and were amenable to statistical analysis for the prevalence of dental caries and dental fluorosis and their relation at varying degree of fluoride concentration in drinking water. It was observed that number of children affected with dental caries decreases with the increase in concentration of level of fluoride in drinking water and the number of children affected with dental Fluorosis increases with the increase in level of concentration of fluoride in drinking water.
