Flouride; A serious debate!


When dentists suggest that they will actually cough up to pay for a community's fluoride, one has to take notice. My dentist friend in Melbourned has turned to DIY home renovations as an alternative income source because the introduction of Flouride has slashed his tooth repair business. There's certainly no doubt that flouride assists preventative dental health, but there are certainly many arguments against flouride introduction on a mass scale.
Here's the report

These dentists really crack me up ! They are forever trying to ram flouride down our throats, yet NEVER mention the huge toll SUGAR takes on our dental health, among other things. Flouride does not help much in a high sugar diet. They should be telling people to lay off the fizzy drinks and sweet things instead. For some reason they don't. Can someone explain why ?
And what about the health conscious people, or people living in the hot climes who drink lots of water and get double/triple/quadruple the dose ?
