Objectives. As an oral health provider, a dentist is an oral health expert in any local community. This study was done to provide robust data to educate and promote the water fluoridation program in an efficient way by surveying dentists` attitudes and perceptions in Jeollabuk-do Province towards this program. Methods. The survey result was analyzed based on the responses from a total of 137 dental practitioners out of 412 dental practitioners in Jeollabuk-do Province. Results. In terms of the perception towards the water fluoridation program, the highest percentage (79.1%) of respondents agreed to post the program promotion materials inside their clinics. Furthermore, the study showed that the more active they were in preventive affairs, the more they were interested in the water fluoridation program and showed less negative views toward the program`s prospects. Also, 57.5% of the respondents (the highest ratio) agreed that the government should contribute more towards increasing the program budget as a method of expanding the program. Conclusions. We stress that instructions about the purpose and safety of the water fluoridation program and the effect of caries prevention be reinforced for dentists and all other specialists in the program.
