Fluoride

For decades, fluoride has been held in high regard by the dental community as an important mineral that is absorbed into and strengthens tooth enamel, and thereby helping to prevent decay of tooth structures.

Fluoride has come under some recent scrutiny by public health officials, some of whom question how effective it is in preventing cavities.

Bottled Water and Home Water Treatment Systems

Authorities believe that consistent use of bottled water could result in individuals missing the benefits of optimally fluoridated water. Moreover, some home water treatment systems change fluoridated water supplies for the worse.
