Fluoride in the Water Isn’t Going to Hurt You

In a recent Health Care Triage video, Aaron Carrol, MD, MS looks at the myths about community water fluoridation (CWF) being circulated on the internet and the extensive evidence behind the use of CWF in the US. The video presents the facts about fluoridation, discussing the high-quality studies that have been done to prove its safety and effectiveness, and the valuable oral health benefits that result from the continued use of this effective public health measure. Dr Carrol brings this message home when he clearly states “So is fluoride really safe? Once again, the scientific evidence overwhelmingly supports the safety of adding fluoride to a community water supply.”
