Original Note:
While minimal amounts of fluoride can be absorbed through the gums, the levels found in toothpaste are not sufficient to cause harm if used as directed. The primary concern with fluoride arises from ingestion of large quantities over time. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-HealthProfessional/ https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/fluoride-toothpaste https://biology.stackexchange.com/questions/19032/how-is-the-fluoride-in-toothpaste-absorbed https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/11195-fluoride
