There has been much debate over the years concerning the safety of fluoride in drinking water, but the overwhelming majority of governing bodies still agree that fluoride is safe and promotes healthy teeth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite all of the controversy that seems to be surrounding the true effects of fluoride in water, the positive impact of having it in drinking water has been positive,\u201d says Dr. Janice Mummery, founder of Princeview Dental. \u201cIt is still deemed safe by organizations such as Health Canada, the Canadian Dental Association, the Canadian Medical Association, and the World Health Organization.\u201d (Source: \u201cCommunity Water Fluoridation - Common Questions,\u201d Government of Saskatchewan Health web site; http:\/\/www.health.gov.sk.ca\/Default.aspx?DN=7d4df43c-3e21-49cf-9ef2-4b1feca2b4fd, last accessed May 21, 2014.)<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Mummery explains that the main benefit of having fluoride in water is that it prevents tooth decay, with people residing in areas that include fluoride in their water having 20\u201340% less tooth decay. And the benefits extend to people of all ages; older people are keeping their teeth longer and younger people are experiencing better overall oral hygiene.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe municipal government in each locality should be able to let residents know if the amount of fluoride is at the recommended levels,\u201d Dr. Mummery concludes. \u201cSafety is not an issue and the health benefits are undeniable.
