Fluoride makes teeth acid-resistant as it poisons our babies, lowers our IQs, is a major osteoarthritis player, and disrupts most enzymes and membranes in our bodies. It should only be used at specific targets and always conservatively. Fluoride should never be ingested, and never added to our water. Fluoride needs to be treated like any other sometimes essential drug. It has specific benefits and many ways to harm. It should not be in drinking water nor used indiscriminately.

Quality. It is imperativeyour Bend Dentistuse the most biocompatible, durable and beautiful materials available.
