9 Navigating Fluoride Science
10 Facts vs. Myths Opponents of community water fluoridation have made claims that optimally fluoridated water can cause an array of health problems.
11 Myth: Fluoride Must be Bad- Look at the Label Almost anything can be harmful including calcium and Vitamin D if consumed in extraordinary amounts. Slide Source Matt Jacob--Children s Dental Health Project
12 Let s put this in context. Even many vitamin containers have warning labels. Slide Source Mat Jacob--Children s Dental Health Project (Source: Labeling information for NutraBio s Vitamin C supplement, sold in a 500-milligram dosage.)
13 Fact: There is no firm link to cancer. There is currently no firm evidence linking water fluoridation to cancer in general, or to specific cancers. Medical Research Council (U.K.) working group report: Water fluoridation and health The weight of the evidence indicates that fluoridation of water does not increase the risk of developing cancer. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, U.S. Public Health Service Toxicological profile for fluorides, hydrogen fluoride, and fluorine (2003).
14 Osteosarcoma (Bone Cancer) Claims of association with fluoridation have existed for years Biologically plausible Very rare disease; difficult to study Scientists have conducted research NTP Studies I and II Harvard/National Cancer Institute Study Bassin et al (2006), Kim et al (2011) Expert panels have examined evidence Australia, NHMRC, (2007) National Research Council (2006) York Review (2000)
15 Immune System No association has been shown for immunological effects: There are animal studies, however studies use excessively high doses and inappropriate routes of administration No effect at levels used for CWF There is no evidence of any harmful effect on specific immunity following fluoridation nor any confirmed reports of allergic reactions. Challacombe SJ. Does fluoridation harm immune function? Comm Dent Health 1996;13(Suppl 2): National Research Council (1993)Health Effects of Ingested Fluoride
16 Myth: Fluoride lowers kids IQ scores Slide Source Matt Jacob--Children s Dental Health Project
17 Slide Source Matt Jacob--Children s Dental Health Project
18 Fluoride & IQ scores 2014 New Zealand study showed no link between fluoride and IQs. This study is more reliable because: It measured IQs over 30 years Community Water Fluoridation and Intelligence: Prospective Study in New Zealand It used a consistent IQ test It took many other factors into account, such as parents education Slide Source Matt Jacob--Children s Dental Health Project
19 Myth: Fluoride is Mass Medication Claim: Fluoridation is mass medication Fact: Fluoride is not a medicine - it is a nutrient which exists naturally in the environment. Standing Committee on the Scientific Evaluation of Dietary Reference Intakes, Food and Nutrition Board, Institute of Medicine Dietary reference intakes for calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamin D, and fluoride. Washington, DC: National Academy Press, 1999
20 Myth: Fluoridation is Wasteful Myth: Fluoride is wastefulonly for children Fact: Fluoridation is good for people of all ages 15% to 35% reduction in caries in adolescents and adults 27% reduction in adults (Griffin 2007) Older adults retaining more teeth than ever and have an improved quality of life.
21 Myth: Conspiracy Theory Claim: Water fluoridation is a vast conspiracy that grew out of a need to dispose of fluoride used to develop the atomic bomb Fact: This would require collusion on the part of researchers, universities, gov t agencies, private industry, federal, state and local governments.
22 Environmentally Safe
23 "All substances are poisons; there is none which is not a poison. The right dose differentiates a poison." Paracelsus ( ) SALT
24 Myth: Fluoride Is No Longer Effective Fact: It is easy for people take oral health for granted Many of us have not known the ravages of tooth decay Must keep in mind the key role fluoridation plays - not only to oral health but to overall health
