I grew up drinking well water, without flouride. I went to the dentist
whenever my parents said I had to for cleaning or whatever, but never had
any cavities. As an adult, I had no interest in going to the dentist, and
had fairly poor oral hygeine for well over a decade. Still no cavities.
Up until I started martial arts training (as an adult), I had never broken
a bone (despite being in plenty of situations where I might have,
including a few car accidents). And at the time I finally broke that one
bone, I was living in Dallas, drinking city water, which is flouridated.
My point is that one person's experience (his or mine) may be interesting,
but it doesn't necessarily mean anything to anyone but him.
