Are fluoride treatments harmful?
Fluoride, in appropriate concentrations, has been recognized as safe and effective in preventing tooth decay. It is commonly added to public water supplies, toothpaste, and other dental products. The use of fluoride for dental health has been extensively studied and supported by scientific research. It helps to strengthen tooth enamel, making teeth more resistant to acid attacks and cavities. Numerous studies have shown that community water fluoridation reduces tooth decay rates, particularly among children. However, it's important to note that excessive consumption of fluoride can lead to a condition called fluorosis, which can cause white spots or discoloration on teeth. Fluorosis is generally a cosmetic issue and does not affect the health or function of the teeth. The appropriate level of fluoride in water and dental products is carefully regulated to ensure safety and effectiveness. It is always advisable to follow the recommendations of dental professionals regarding fluoride use, particularly for young children who may be more susceptible to fluorosis. If you have specific concerns about fluoride, it is best to consult with a dentist who can provide personalized advice based on your individual circumstances and risk factors. READ MORE
