    I am also thinking about better filtration. PFOS is an issue here and I really don’t want to keep ingesting it.

    Any concerns about removing the fluoride? Is that an issue for people who brush daily?

      I use the filter for drinking water that also takes out flouride and brush my teeth with flouridated water. Ingesting flouride to me, seems like overkill and potentially bad for you.

      Studies show that cities with unfluoridated water have more cavities. I’d look if a fluoride rinse exists.

        I do understand why they do it. My ? is if I brush daily with a sonicare does it matter. My teeth are a lot better cared for that the general population’s teeth.

          I mean people in the studies brush their teeth once or twice a day and still have more cavities.
