> The risk of cavities is reduced by using toothpaste or mouth washes with fluoride, not by drinking fluoridated water.

it always surprises me how willing people are to just make something up and be confident in doing so. We've know for almost 75 years that water fluoridation reduces tooth decay[1] and yet here you are straight up denying that.

Do you just not care if you are correct? or do you know you aren't but are driven by the beliefs you already hold?
