Tooth Decay Growth has Dentists in Moncton Urging for Return of Fluoride

Dentists are urging Moncton to resume putting fluoride in its water after its five-year moratorium on the practice expires on Dec. 31.

Drapeau-McNally estimates tooth decay in children has increased approximately 50 per cent.
