Every time except one

I don’t consider them social media.

Virtually nothing on it is about the poster, and that’s mostly how I see social media. Even more baffling is people calling YouTube social media.

Two important caveats though.

1. maybe r/JohnQSmith type things are prevalent just not in my experience. There’s plenty of content I’ve never seen.

2. The descriptivists won the day, so language is about what people do say not what people should say. If people call it that and the dictionary or whatever says something different, the speakers aren’t wrong. The dictionary is wrong.

I don’t have the ppm memorized, but it was like tenth percentile

Not really. Since it isn’t in my well no matter what I do, the effects of fluoride in water aren’t relevant to my question.

But the consensus in the comments is that fluoride in my toothpaste and maybe mouthwash is sufficient, and having fluoride treatments as a child but not as an adult makes sense.

Thanks

Fluoridated water just isn’t an option for me but I can ask my dentist about options beyond fluoridated toothpaste and mouthwash.

Yes I make sure mine does

No I was mostly thinking of oral intake

Wow, that does sound political!

Again, I’m not at all talking about additives to municipal water. That’s clearly good. Just since my houses don’t have it I’m curious if there’s a missed opportunity for better.

Seems like “yes but small” given already using fluoridated toothpaste

I would think so. I use fluoridated toothpaste, and another commenter recommended fluoridated mouthwash.

Seems like the answer is yes and I’ll be discussing it with my dentist.

Yeah, the money isn’t a thing for me. My houses are in parts of NY that just don’t have municipal wells, so there’s no reason to feel one way or the other about it. It just is what it is.

Thanks. I’ll definitely be asking my dentist just a while until my next appointment

Fwiw I like car sourced public music

Makes sense. Even if its a thing I’d probably not keep up on it. My house filters have gotten embarrassingly full in my time

How long did you take fluoride pills, as an adult or only as a child?

This is definitely a thing. I mentioned no cavities, but I have had some “slight decalcification we might want to address before it gets worse” that then got better on their own.

Thanks.

I hadn’t thought of a fluoridated mouthwash but that looks obvious in hindsight.

Thanks. The fluoride in the water itself is not directly relevant because I just don’t have it, but good evidence to raise the topic with my dentist as an adult. I definitely use fluoridated toothpaste.

Yeah, I think that’s why my dentist gave me fluoride treatments as a child. Have you gotten any as an adult?

Stay at home dad

Fuck yes
