Sir, – It is hard to believe that fluoride is still being discussed. In 1960 the average 16-year-old had 16 teeth that were decayed, missing or filled. Today if a 16-year-old has one filling it is a matter of regret. For that reason alone those involved with dentistry should be justifiably proud. It’s time to move on. – Yours,e tc,
