Governor Ron DeSantis signed a law that prohibits local governments in Florida from adding fluoride to water supplies, a practice aimed at combating tooth decay. Dental professionals warn that this could lead to increased dental health issues, particularly within the next two to three years. They emphasize the need for enhanced dental education and community outreach encouraging fluoride use through supplements and better dietary choices. As dentists prepare for the change, regular dental visits will be crucial for monitoring oral health, especially in children reliant on water fluoridation for dental care.
Seeing a dentist regularly is going to be more important than ever.
It may take a few years, but we expect to see more tooth decay.
