This is really a marvelous addition to the twtrsphere. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1535627…
Good for #FluorideFriday! #EndFluoridation, it doesn't prevent tooth decay if you control for personal oral hygiene and/or diet; we would bet that even Dr Limeback's "one tooth, maybe" postulation would disappear & go the other way if such controls were taken.
The biggest fallacy of adding bioavailable #fluorine to our potable water supply, to prevent tooth decay?
Of all the pure drinking water that has added synthetic #fluorine (at an *'optimal'* amount),

THE MAJORITY OF THE TREATED WATER IS NOT SWALLOWED BY A HUMAN BEING.
Imagine a lawn sprinkler. All those millions of drops. Of every million drops, imagine one drop being 100% #fluorosilicic acid. Watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering.
The toxic #fluorine levels in the soil are rising, watering after after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering.
It is well understood that plants are susceptible to #fluorine intoxication too. Some more, some less, just like people. All that bioavailable #fluorine, drop by drop, watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering after watering.
Houseplants too. Chances are, if you live in a community where they add bioavailable #fluorine to your pure water, now you know what those uglies are on yours plants.

Bi-lingual bad flossing. These jokers just can't find anyone who knows how to hold dental floss. Much less use it. Stock photo's are just not cutting it. Almost as bad as using teeth models to teach brushing. Does no one ever stop and think?
Follow the link, and: -|- "Did you know that you can interrupt and even reverse this process to avoid a cavity?"

Wasn't that the paper that showed beyond a shadow of a doubt that kids in Edmonton suffer #fluorosis 3X more than kids in Calgary? Why, yes, yes it is! Seems to be some credibility fluffing going on.
That was the paper ginned up for the #Calgary vote. If one reads it, it doesn't support #fluoridation. #FluorideFriday! -|- "For smooth surface caries in the permanent dentition (DMFS-SS), there were no statistically significant differences between Calgary and Edmonton samples."
DYK? Enamel #fluorosis is the first, most obvious sign of long term, chronic #fluorine intoxication? -|- "Table 1 also shows that the crude prevalence of dental fluorosis (% TSIF ≥ 1) was statistically significantly lower in Calgary (fluoridation cessation) ..."

Heartening to know that today there are gobs & scads of young #Dentist's who want to learn more about who precisely WAS "C.C. Bass, M.D", and what did he have to say about #PreventiveDentistry?
For the last few decades or so, just about any young #Dentist, when they first learn the real story of who "C. C. Bass, M.D." is, and what he actually did, are puzzled.
A couple of channels results from their #DentalSkool teaching, and thus their thinking.
