The case to keep fluoride out of Tauranga’s water supplies has been strengthened by the Bay of Plenty District Health Board’s latest statistics on tooth decay in children, a leading city anti-fluoride campaigner says.
Ken Evans has obtained information from the board that compared 5-year-olds from fluoridated and non-fluoridated communities. It showed children living in non-fluoridated areas had better teeth in eight out of 10 years.
