You grew up with fluoride. Your teeth show it in the very fact that you still have them. Before 1945, by the time your nest was empty, your mouth was often empty too.
But when cities began adding fluoride to water supplies, tooth decay took a nose dive. Most of us never gave it a second thought, just turned on the tap and downed the cure.
Fluoride reverses the demineralization of your teeth. It strengthens them, prevents plaque and caries, wards off gum disease and protects roots. So it’s not just for kids.
The Medford Water Commission does not add fluoride to its water. What can you do? Ask us about supplements. Take a bite out of decay.
