Do you think fluoride should be added to public water sources?

Asked at Massachusetts Street on August 11, 2007

“Absolutely, because it's very important for the enamel on your teeth. It helps lower the long-term costs of health care.”

“I always thought it was good for your teeth. But if there are enough people out there saying that it's not, then I think the government needs to allocate some resources to determine if they should or not.”

“I guess it depends on how bad the potential negative side effects are and whether they outweigh the positive effects.”

“I don't know why it shouldn't. I've never known anyone who has been negatively affected by it.”
