Fluorosis has recently become more prevalent in areas of India where it is endemic. It is well known that drinking water with excessive fluoride levels may contribute to fluorosis. In the Nalgonda District of Telangana, India, 30 water samples from hand pumps and bore wells in chosen villages were collected in order to determine the fluoride concentration (ppm) in both fluorotic and nonfluorotic communities. Additionally, we gathered information from 168 persons in particular areas to assess the prevalence of skeletal and dental fluorosis. Surface and ground water samples from these villages' have fluoride amounts ranging from 0.46 to 11.4 ppm. The current study on fluorosis in the Nalgonda district found that both fluorotic and non-fluorotic individuals had greater incidences, more severe skeletal manifestations, and oral fluorosis. Aside from that According to the findings above 50% of residents of fluorotic villages in the Nalgonda area have skeletal fluorosis and dental fluorosis,
