- Finished wikifying, but this article needs serious cleanup from someone with experience in the field. --Draicone (talk) 01:25, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
This page will confuse people because it deals mostly with topical fluoride but then throws in water fluoridation without justification. Could you please add the following sentence as the second sentence in the page:
Fluoride is often use as a topical dental treatment but fluoride is not safe to randomly consume.

There are those who believe that fluoride is detrimental to human health and should not be used at all. I am not an expert in this field, but I think that, although it is a "minority opinion," it should be adequately addressed in this article.--Dlgwiki 18:36, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- Since anti-fluoridation views are a minority opinion, it is better to address those particular points of view adequately in water fluoridation controversy, which is what that article accomplishes. Very frequently, these anti-fluoride arguments are made in the context of water fluoridation, and therefore those views fit nicely into that article. I do not see any reason to cover that opinion in this article, especially since it disagrees with the majority of health and research organizations. - Dozenist talk 22:28, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
