Council members should be careful about what voices they elevate.City councils and city managers come and go at Dallas City Hall, but some things never change. For years, a parade of conspiracy theorists who blast adding fluoride to the water supply have shown up to speak at council meetings.
As Huang noted, federal public health experts in 2015 lowered their recommendation for water fluoridation to 0.7 parts per million to reflect the wider availability of fluoride from other sources. That is a tiny fraction compared to the fluoride that comes in our toothpaste, but it can still decrease tooth decay by 25%, according to established science.
“There are some questions that I’d like to hear answered from an unbiased standpoint,” Bazaldua said, prompting Huang and the others to remind him they’re not lobbyists.There isn’t any credible “other side” to the fluoride question. Yet Bazaldua’s committee on Tuesday will hear from two people representing fringe groups.A third panelist is one of the authors of a 2019 study that was manna to the conspiracy crowd and that supposedly linked lower-IQ in boys to fluoride exposure in the womb.
