Health Tip: Dental Association Supports Fluoridated Water
By LadyLively on December 14, 2017
Not every community in the United States adds fluoride to drinking water.
Nonetheless, the American Dental Association supports the practice, saying fluoridated water:
- Helps prevent tooth decay.
- Protects all ages against cavities.
- Is safe and effective.
- Saves money. The average lifetime cost per person to fluoridate a community’s supply of drinkingwater is less than the cost of one filling.
- Is natural. Fluoride is found naturally in groundwater.
