Sealants and water fluoridation are examples of what type of prevention?

Primary
Secondary
Tertiary
Proactive

The correct answer is: Primary

Sealants and water fluoridation are both examples of primary prevention, which aims to prevent health problems from occurring in the first place. Secondary prevention focuses on detecting and treating health problems that have already developed, while tertiary prevention involves managing and mitigating the effects of a health problem. Proactive is not a type of prevention, as it is more of an approach or mindset rather than a specific prevention category.
