A Note from Dr. John Johnson:

This paper examines how community water fluoridation became public health policy. To be perfectly clear, I am not a pro-fluoride dentist. As a biological dentist, I oppose the routine use of systemic fluoride, which I consider unnecessary, potentially harmful, and incompatible with whole-body health. I do not recommend water fluoridation or routine ingested fluoride in my practice. The following is an honest historical review that explains why biological dentistry now critically questions the foundations of this policy.
