Original Note:
The levels of fluoride used in water fluoridation .7 mg/L are well below any concentration that could cause adverse health effects. In fact, fluoride occurs naturally in many water sources, and fluoridation simply adjusts this level to optimize dental health benefits. https://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/about/statement-on-the-evidence-supporting-the-safety-and-effectiveness-of-community-water-fluoridation.html https://ilikemyteeth.org/debate-fluoridation/does-fluoride-cause-cancer/ https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/health/fluoride-controversy https://www.cancer.org/cancer/risk-prevention/chemicals/water-fluoridation-and-cancer-risk.html
