Original Note:
Fluoride is not toxic in the amounts found in drinking water, nor is swallowing a small amount of toothpaste harmful. Fluoride is toxic in large amounts (e.g. a toddler consuming 10g of toothpaste). Adding fluoride to drinking water has been shown to reduce dental cavities. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9383753/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation
