Perhaps it would be better to give out free toothbrushes, toothpaste, and dental floss.

Let me be the first to say that it is a plot to steal our vital bodily fluids. Co. Jack Ripper told me so.

...or FEMA could give out credit cards to buy dental care products.

Does anyone have PJ O'Rourke's flowchart on how fluoridation makes you a Communist as graphic? :-)

Comparing Long Beach, California, an inner city enviornment, to Nassau County, NY, on wealthy, suburban Long Island, is kind of silly. Of course Long Beach is going to have more health problems of all kinds, including tooth decay. And that's regardless of whether you fluoridate.

No one drinks the water. They drink bottled water.

It's the same crowd who are "dentist-neglected", cavity-filled people also tend to be the ones who guzzle sugary sodas all day, and rarely drink water, I don't see how any possible inference about the effectiveness of fluoridation can be drawn from their high cavity rate. Nobody ever said fluoridated water would help if you don't drink it. Showering in it just doesn't do the trick. Personally, I had tons of cavities when I was growing up -- a lot more than most of my American peers, and I lived most of the time in countries that did not have fluoridated water.

How many parents give their kids bottled water or have filters of some kind on their taps? My guess is that he kids are not drinking the fluoridated water and in addition have a decay promoting diet and poor dental hygiene.

No, actually most of them drink sugary sodas.

The California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) predicted that California preschoolers’ poor nutrition, soda drinking and poor dental care would lead to more tooth decay.13

These are also nice confounds, making the study somewhat unreliable for determining the efficacy of fluoridation.

I meant when they drink water, they drink bottled.
