> As a Swede I always found it interesting we were one of the few countries which do not flouridate tap water.

How much fluoride is naturally present in your water? Maybe that's why.

Or maybe you have good dental care so people get their enamel fluoridated at the office to the point that it doesn't pay to add it to the water.




Where I live it's 0.5mg/L from natural sources. Lower range of the recommended span given by WHO (0.5-1.5mg/L).
