Original Note:
While it’s true that fluoride is not required for any biological processes, it has a few beneficial effects when present in small amounts. Fluoride is added to the water supply to reduce the prevalence of tooth decay. Furthermore, fluoride promotes new bone formation. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/154164 https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-HealthProfessional/ https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/2156587211428076
