Re: How old were you when you got your first dental cavity?

[(Anonymous)]

Fluoride may have some effect as a topical solution, but I haven't seen concrete evidence that it does.

However, fluoride has zero benefit from being ingested.

I agree diet is important as hell. Don't go crazy on the whole wheat though. I learned the hard way. Fermentation, soaking, and sprouting are wonderful things.

This report discusses how ingested fluoride works and cites longitudinal studies comparing oral health (and possible side effects of fluoride) in fluoridated/non-fluoridated areas.

Without a degree in dentistry I am unsure what other hard information could be supplied that might satisfy your.

What? Did you forget some words there?

Anyway, according to that study, having been exposed to fluoridated water in my youth, I should never have had a single cavity. So how is it I have several molars full of amalgams?

Sorry, but dentists don't know everything. They just look at cavities, call you an asshole for not brushing and flossing (ignoring the fact that you do so regularly), and then recommend murdering your teeth at your expense because all tooth decay must be treated the same. Why is it, with all the advances in modern science, that the only way to "heal" a tooth is to destroy either bits by bits, or by destroying it entirely? We literally do not do that to any other parts of our bodies, except in extreme cases.

Autocorrect botched my last word. Bless you.


Get adequate levels of fluoride and calcium, avoid sugar, and brush regularly, and be at less risk of debilitating cavities.

Like, put on sunblock and wear a long-sleeved shirt and you are less likely to get skin cancer.

Or, eat healthy and you are at less risk of type 2 diabetes.

None of these are foolproof preventatives. But the statistics tell us they help. The statistics say they work for whole communities. You throw everything away that isn't perfect?

"Why is it, with all the advances in modern science, that the only way to "heal" a tooth is to destroy either bits by bits, or by destroying it entirely?"

So doing what you can to take care of them is a good idea, yeah?
