Daniella Levine Cava: “Ending fluoridation will have long-lasting health consequences, especially for our most vulnerable families.”

We continue to have significant concerns about the scope and scale of the state’s effort, particularly regarding the environmental safeguards in place given the potentially devastating impact to the Everglades.

I was deeply disappointed by the Legislature's decision to ban fluoride, which disregards the overwhelming consensus of dentists, doctors, and medical experts.

Fluoridation is a proven, safe, cost-effective way to prevent tooth decay and protect oral health for children and adults, particularly for families with limited access to dental care.

No studies have shown that fluoridation at low levels is unsafe for our communities, including babies and pregnant women.
