Mainstream dentistry has historically been in love with fluoride, a naturally occurring element in our earth’s crust. In dental school we were told it was a great tool in combating tooth decay, which of course we wish to lessen for our patients. It was explained that if taken systemically in water or supplemented it would be incorporated in the teeth as they form, making them less susceptible to acid attack which is the primary reason teeth rot. What has been found, however, is that this desired action is false.
