Do adults benefit from flouride? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Makes sense. Even if its a thing I'd probably not keep up on it. My house filters have gotten embarrassingly full in my time

Thanks. The fluoride in the water itself is not directly relevant because I just don't have it, but good evidence to raise the topic with my dentist as an adult. I definitely use fluoridated toothpaste.

Do adults benefit from flouride? (lemmy.world)
 

First let me be clear: I'm not a crazy conspiracy person (...on this) I just don't rely on a municipal well. As far as I know adding fluoride to the private well at my houses is not a thing, good or bad. I did drink municipal water for two years when I lived on campus in college.

That said, is fluoride a benefit to adults or just children?

When I was a kid I got fluoride treatments at the dentist, but then aged out. I've never had a cavity in forty years, but I'd like to keep it that way. Should I still be doing it?

Also no, I'm not using the internet as a substitute for a dentist, just my next dental appointment is in four months. TIA
