Since the long weekend is almost upon us I thought maybe a post today that is quick and easy would be appropriate. The fluoride debate continues to rage and it's sometimes hard to separate fact from fiction.
To help doctors with the current educational situation, the ADA has just posted a great web page that helps doctors to provide necessary information for patients. There are tons of misconceptions out there. People need reliable scientific information. I love technology, but everything has pluses and minuses. The great thing about the Internet is that anyone can have a voice. The bad thing about the Internet is that anyone can have a voice. Because of that it's really hard for curious people to find actually reliable science on a given subject.
Most people count on their dental professionals to trust when it comes to this. Along those lines, the ADA has put together this info for doctors to use. This is yet another reason to be an ADA member. As I frequently say, the profession needs a unified voice that has the ability to talk to lawmakers while also having the resources to provide reliable scientific information.
Follow this link to access this important info. And remember that the ADA speaks for the profession. We need this kind of leadership to help us in ways that you may not even be aware of.
