Is fluoridated water necessary for healthy teeth?
NO. Most recent, large-scale studies have found that fluoridated water provides only a minor benefit to teeth, or no demonstrable benefit at all. According to a recent Canadian government review: “The magnitude of fluoridation’s effect is not large in absolute terms, is often not statistically significant and may not be of clinical significance.

This means that no human disease – including tooth decay – will result from a “deficiency” of fluoride. Thus, unlike real nutrients like calcium and magnesium, the human body does not need fluoride for any physiological process. 2. ” According to extensive research conducted over the past 50 years, water fluoridation is safe and healthy.” Wrong. Again, there is something about such bold claims that just screams infomercial. What do the independent and peer-reviewed researchers say?
