Fluoride Varnish Program Catalog - Results of 215-216 Survey This catalog contains information about the use of varnish in elementary schools, kindergarten through grade 12 in school 215-216. The responders defined the use of varnish and/or having a varnish program differently, and answered accordingly. For example some programs did not answer yes if they used varnish in addition to a sealant program. Some programs answered, yes, indicating varnish was not used in elementary schools. We were not able to clearly identify programs that offered only varnish. The number of programs and contacts may have change.
