The tooth is therefore less susceptible to decay by acid attack. (Tooth decay is largely caused by acid dissolution of enamel. Acid is a byproduct of food decay...
...Paul F. Depaola, head of the department of Clinical Trials and Experiments at the Forsythe Dental Research Center, says that his studies have convincingly demonstrated a definite inverse correspondence between levels of water fluorides and tooth decay. Cavity incidence drops well over 60 per cent with increasing fluoride concentrations, he found...
