520 |a“Fluoride is a mineral that exists naturally in virtually all water sources and in trace quantities in food and soil. At low concentrations, fluoride in drinking water prevents dental cavities and improves oral health. Communities adjust the amount of fluoride in their community water supply to optimal levels that protect teeth from decay - this is referred to as community water fluoridation. Water fluoridation can reduce tooth decay in a community by providing frequent and consistent contact with low levels of fluoride. The recommended optimal level of fluoride in drinking water takes into consideration all sources of exposure to fluoride, including foods and dental products. It is well below the maximum acceptable concentration established by the Federal-Provincial-Territorial Committee on Drinking Water"--p. [1].
