That is your right. No one will come to your home and make you drink the
water. There is no doubt that putting fluoride in water is one of the most
successful and cost effective public health measure ever undertaken. By the
way, have you noticed that most insurance companies will not pay for
fluoride treatment for adults? They are only marginally effective for
adults.

Maybe for teeth, but drinking fluoridated water has been shown to
reduce hip fractures in the elderly.

I would be very surprised if your dentist advocated removing
fluoride from the public water supply.

Me, too.
