California Code, Health and Safety Code - HSC § 104865

In enacting this article, it is the intent of the Legislature to provide a means for the eventual achievement of the topical application of fluoride or other decay-inhibiting agent to the teeth of all school pupils in this state. However, it is understood that this treatment is not a substitute for regular professional dental care. This article is designed to provide for the keeping of adequate records of treatment so that appropriate public agencies and the persons treated will be able to ascertain that a person has been so treated.
