The primary concern with fluoride arises from ingestion of large quantities over time: https://biology.stackexchange.com/questions/19032/how-is-the-fluoride-in-toothpaste-absorbed https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-HealthProfessional/ https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/fluoride-toothpaste https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/11195-fluoride
