The Victorian Government is committed to improving the oral health of Victorians. A person's oral health is key to their overall general health and wellbeing. Extending community water fluoridation is important for public health. Melbourne has had fluoridated water since 1977. Other parts of Australia have had fluoridated drinking water for more than 50 years. Community water fluoridation is the most effective population-wide intervention to prevent tooth decay.
