If you swallow flouride, only a tiny percent is going to enter your saliva.
Explain to me the science of how municipal fluoridation
I’ve never mentioned anything about municipal fluoridation. You are reacting in a knee jersey fashion to the word fluoride.
I’m saying there is no point buying fluoride tablets for personal/household use because it’s much better to enforce use of fluoride toothpaste. There is no reason for the tablets to be on general sale.
Calcium makes teeth strong. Fluoride prevents cavities.
This is anecdotal evidence of baking soda bad and flouride indifferent.
multiple studies have shown that increased flouride in drinking water decreases the number of caries in the populations teeth. Its not homeopathic, if it was you wouldn’t even be talking about it because the levels wouldnt be testable.
You are repeating soundbites without engaging your brain. We are discussing the scientific merits of flouride tablets. Not the general water supply.
It’s not the ingestion that matters, its having the appropriate level of fluoride in the thing you put in your mouth all day every day that keeps the levels up in your mouth so your teeth keep absorbing it.
Exactly. If you care about yourself or kids having flouride, you brush your teeth with flouride toothpaste. Then you don’t need to swallow flouride in the hope that enough is excreted through the saliva.
The benefits of improved population dental health far outweigh the public monetary cost of doing it
Off topic. Think before you repeat.
If you want fluoride in your saliva then you put it there using toothpaste you don’t dilute it around the rest of the body mass and hope that enough makes it to the saliva glands.
Swallowing fluoride is homeopathic dentistry.

Fluoride toothpaste is the scientifically valid, topical application method.
Wow. Vocabulary shaming. This is pure Anti-intellectualism. Shame.
Trump knows the strings are attached to the USA rather than him.
Planes are very noisy. Maybe audio would be useful on the ground.
Is just a fun little fact that Air Force 1 isn’t a plane.
You mean that the “hot senators in your area” ads are just scams!?!
Wait, can you graduate from uni just by turning up? No exams?
Air Force 1 is to a regular plane what a Formula One racer is to a regular car
Achshually. Air Force 1 is used to refer to any Air Force aircraft the president travels on. That’s why it’s taken off more times than it’s landed.
the biggest bribe in the history of bribery.
Didn’t somewhere get a large wooden horse once?
Sure. Niche cases exist. Prescriptions are still fine.
But the average person should not be adding flouride to their water. They should brushing their teeth.
That would be indefensible.
