Florida Town Votes to Remove Fluoride from Water, Citing Trump's Appointment of RFK Jr as 'H-Something-Something Directo

10. JFK is a terrible messenger, but fluoride should not be in drinking water

My first born was born with fluorosis which mottled her teeth and possibly affected her bones and joints. I learned about the dangers of fluoridated water as a result. I suspect none of the people commenting actually know anything about the risks of drinking fluoridated water. People just get on a bandwagon that hurts those of us who have actually researched it and understand the problem.

There are two wealthy cities near me (over a million average home price) who have taken fluoride out of their water supply while our upper middle class city continues to add it. I blame people who jump on popular positions without investing any real effort.

Research is hard sometimes. It's more than doing a google search and believing what others who are pushing the same low-effort positions say. Yeah, I get it. It's comforting to think you know something and everyone else is just a conspiracy theorist.

My daughter has veneers...for life.

Yes, we still use fluoride at the dentist. Don't swallow it.
No, we don't brush with fluoridated toothpaste. No need.
