Just had a flouride treatment today at the dentist after my 6 month cleaning.
That’s the point. They put it on your TEETH!

If you took the same flouride compounds they put in the municipal water supplies, and threw any amount into a river or stream, you’d be fined and thrown in jail for years.
Sodium fluoride used to be the active ingredient in some insecticides.
