I searched fluoride in the forums and I just found this post from it looks like a month ago. I searched for it here because I am kinda torn on this fluoride thing. My 2 year old pediatric dentist says she doesn't need fluoride because her teeth are perfect.. the dentist also told me he didn't supplement his children with it either.. but today my daughter saw her Dr for her 2 year checkup and without asking me, she said " I am going to go ahead and prescribe her a multivitamin with fluoride in it. I told her that her dentist said that she didn't need it.. she was kinda floored because she also asked if he was pediatric, I said yeah, he is in the same building as you.. she just couldn't believe it. I guess I just didn't like the was she told me she was gonna prescribe it without asking.. but at the end of the check up she said that if we don't supplement it in the vitamin that she recommends that my daughter drink some tap water daily to get the fluoride. Just seems so odd to me that we can get the prescription she wanted to prescribe straight from the Tap... but maybe my daughter will have horrible teeth when she is older because of not supplementing now.
