Fluoride Education
We created this dedicated page for members to help them explain the safety and importance of fluoridation to their patients. While fluoride has been one of public health's greatest success stories, reducing cavities by up to 25% in children and adults, we've seen a rise in misconceptions about this vital mineral. This resource gives our members the tools to have informed, science-based conversations with patients who may have questions or concerns about fluoridation, ensuring Illinois residents can make confident decisions about their oral health.
