Want to throw open the doors of all these scientific institutions?
We sure do!
This is just a taste of what science organizations have to say about the question of whether fluoride prevents cavities. There is much more to explore on what science organizations have to say about fluoride and fluoridation, but we need your help to do it.
These organizations are some of the most fascinating and important medical, dental, and scientific institutions in our country. Looking more at who they are, what they say about fluoride, and what they do for science and health would be a trip.
Can you get behind an expedition to our nation's leading science and health organizations? A virtual expedition that you'll get to come along on?
Can you help us build this feature on science organizations and delve more into the question, does fluoride prevent cavities?
Notes:
As of 2017, every organization in this list has materials online showing that they agree: fluoride prevents cavities. And while they don't all literally use the word "fight" in their materials, we think it's fair to say that dentists, doctors, public health folks, and scientists view prevention as fighting the good fight :)
See links to each organization's materials about fluoride - whether in toothpaste, varnish, water, supplements, or another mode - here:
