I was just informed by my daughter's pediatrition that our water does not have fluoride in it. I am shocked!!! I contacted regional utilites and they confirmed it. They didn't really know why though. Does anyone know why we don't have fluoride in our water?

I never thought it was. (lots o' iron though) :D

Our water wasn't flouridated when I was little so we got little tiny fluoride pills from Heath and Human Services.

I think whether it's good or bad depends on how much access to healthcare and dentistry you and your family enjoy.

I hope those of you who do rejoice in the fact that we've managed to keep fluoride out of the water supply here in Walton County are generous in your support of the Children's Volunteer Health Network. They do a lot of good work for children in the less fortunate part so of the community where many children suffer -- truly suffer -- from horrible dental problems.

In my opinion this is a good thing.
