Welcome to ADAQ
Historic Day for Dentistry in Queensland
The Government's announcement on 1 December 2008 that the staged introduction of fluoride into Queensland's water supplies had commenced on the Gold Coast was a momentous day in the history of dentistry in Queensland. The Australian Dental Association Queensland (ADAQ) has campaigned since 1953 to have fluoride introduced into Queensland's drinking supplies.
"Whilst it will take time for the real effects to filter through, today is the dawn of a new era for Queensland. Children's teeth in Queensland will, in the future, be stronger with much less decay," said ADAQ President Dr John Wills.
ADAQ applauds Premier Anna Bligh's ongoing commitment to the roll-out of fluoridation into Queensland's water supplies.
Fluoride Supplements
Parents are advised that children will no longer need fluoride tablets, drops or lozenges with the introduction of water fluoridation in south east Queensland over the next four weeks. As town water is progressively fluoridated, parents no longer need to provide these supplements and should cease the practice. By 31 December 2008 these SEQ major water treatment plants will be fluoridated: Mt Crosby (2 plants), Landers Shute, Molendinar, Mudgeeraba and North Pine.
