Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 When I was growing up I lived in a tiny, tiny town whose water was from a fresh spring with no fluoride. My brother & I had perfect teeth until we were 9 & 11 and moved to a town with fluoride in the water. We immediately started having problems. It was yucky to say the least. As a result I go out of my way to avoid fluoride and have very few problems after the first rush of cavities. I'm now in my 40's and still won't use fluoride toothpaste, etc. I won't drink tap water for several reasons, fluoride is one of them. But that is just my experience - others will disagree. Samantha I usually drink it from the tap because it is better for your teeth because of the added floride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Wow thats interesting. I have always drank water with floride in it. I am 33 and have no cavities. Im sure family genetics plays a part in this to along with many other things that can cause cavities as well. Gives us lots to talk and think about.
