“I am proud of my family’s healthy lifestyle and yet my children have needed a lot of dental work. I grew up in a fluoridated city and never had this kind of dental decay. All kids need the benefits of fluoridation, no matter where they live.”
It's time for the commissioners to keep faith with the voters, acknowledge the prevailing wisdom and approve fluoridation.
We have consistently recommended fluoridation of local water supplies, based on decades of evidence that it produces better dental health communitywide and that oral health is crucial for overall well-being.
More than two-thirds of Americans live in communities with fluoridated drinking water and receive the benefits of this safe, naturally occurring element.
A commitment to fluoridation in your community means less tooth decay, better oral health and improved overall health for you and your family.
