- This is an unscientific decision that will cause harms. While topical fluoride is useful, when adult teeth are growing (in children) ingested fluoride makes more impact than any topical fluoride later can. Everything we ingest “changes our microbiome.” Microbiome composition is not a health outcome!
- 🚩 “Microbiome” is one of those pseudoscience red flags because it is a real thing and can have real implications, but 99% of the time it’s brought up it’s totally unscientific.
