My mother was a Hydrologist and worked on the water quality reports for many of them back in the 90's.

Making Dentists Richer
So what do they care?
You’all know what to do💪🏼
MAGA KNOWS BEST

They’ll be very busy in Utah.
Zion rules... for now.

According to the WHO, Europe has the highest rate of tooth decay among all its regions globally, with over 50% of the European population experiencing some form of oral disease like tooth decay (caries) or periodontitis.
but has yet to be listed as the major cause of death for people who still had their teeth
And when you die (if you’ve been a good enough Mormon) you (the men) get to have your very own planet where your whole family will live with you. I kid you not.🙄
more death,
less liberty,
and more GOP crime with no consequences.
After more than a half century of positive experience, THIS SHIT IS INSANE!
When I was a kid we had well water and I had lots of cavities because I had soft tooth enamel.
When we got city water, the cavities stopped.
There is an argument that suggests this benefits dentists, but that would be like breaking a person's legs and then offering to sell them crutches.
With a righteous Hrumph!
Gov. Caillou/Cox is to the far right (literally)
POE
On a separate note:
Utah to change state motto from "Industry" to "Gums"
In truth tho, the overwhelming majority of municipalities have never added fluoride.
It’s been studied over and over since then. The evidence shows that fluoride in water helps people, not just with their teeth, but also physically because there’s a connection between healthy teeth and good overall health.
As long as the levels are safe, that's plain stupid, gonna be very costly, and also very "big gov"
Not me …
But someone with less of a gag reflex for poor dental hygiene…
However they elected Tuberville.
That’s the real problem.
No tourism dollars for you!!

Will you be dining with us this afternoon?
No, it’s 2pm, I’m here to watch the game and I already ate lunch.
Sorry no alcohol without food.
So, I order chips & salsa and my beer, and give the chips & salsa to those dudes over at that table. Utah sucks.
A physical barrier in Utah restaurants that prevents children from seeing alcohol drinks poured (evil, right?)
It doesn’t prevent kids seeing people drink liquor…but prevent kids from seeing liquor being POURED!
The fringe played the long game and won. So I guess when you see a kid with no teeth they're from Utah.
Utah: The Toothless State
The facts:
"community water fluoridation can reduce tooth decay by about 25% in children and adults." though according to some studies, the benefit is seen more in children.

Dentist: "Woah, that's a HUGE cavity - Woah, that’s a HUGE cavity!"
Patient: "Enough, Doc, I heard you the first time."
Dentist: "Sorry, that was an echo."
