Fluoride Makes Your Teeth Yellow - Dentists Know

[gnarleydude]

Dentists know that adding fluoride to public water yellows people's teeth.

This is probably a major reason why they continue to support its inclusion against humanitarian laws - it sells more teeth whitening products and services. (Not to mention the sensitive teeth toothpaste that is increasing in popularity primarily due to the effects on enamel of bleaching teeth)

When are they going to be taken to task?

I did a natural whitening once...it worked pretty well, but it took a few months before the tooth sensitivity went away. Hydrogen peroxide does wonders.

Baking soda and salt is another option use this one or twice a week.

So why don't dentists recommend it?

Semi rhetorical question.

Same reason that any 'cancer' organization would not likely release a 'cure' if they found one.

Profits.

If there was some 'wonder substance' - like Flour, Baking Soda, and Salt - or something that worked the VERY best on teeth - if they sold it or touted it, they would have less work to do.

My wife recently took our kids to a new dentist. After seeing all of them, the dentist asked my wife what toothpaste we use and if she would mind bringing in a sample so that he could recommend it to his other clients. We use Tom's of Maine - Non-Flouride. He had no idea that use of a non-flouride toothpaste could result in such healthy teeth.

They make a good organic type of deodorant also. Thanks for the info - I'll look for that also.

Tom's mouthwash is the best, too.

Good to know -- every single one of the sticks gives me a severe rash and all I can use (until now) is regular Right Guard spray which is quite annoying and ineffective after a few hours. Thanks!
