No fluoride in water equals bad teeth in kids

Trump's HHS boss RFK Jr., who like Trump himself is clearly clinically insane by any legitimate standard, wants fluoride out of drinking water.
Warren Loeppky has been a pediatric dentist in the Canadian city of Calgary for 20 years. Over the last decade, he says, tooth decay in children he’s seen has become more common, more aggressive and more severe. Many of his young patients have so much damage that he has to work with them under general anesthesia…

Loeppky notes that many factors can contribute to tooth decay in children, including their diet and genetics. Still, he believes part of the problem is linked to a decision made in the halls of local government: In 2011, Calgary stopped adding fluoride to its drinking water. - Science News
