How does fluoride strengthens teeth?

[Drain Bamage]

Anybody know how that works?

Trust me, it builds great teeth. It will build the most spectacular, greatest smile you've ever had. Nothing builds teeth better than fluoride, believe me. And it builds them very inexpensively.

Colgate will pay for it

Fluoride is a mineral that occurs naturally in many foods and water. Every day, minerals are added to and lost from a tooth's enamel layer through two processes, demineralization and remineralization. Minerals are lost (demineralization) from a tooth's enamel layer when acids -- formed from plaque bacteria and sugars in the mouth -- attack the enamel. Minerals such as fluoride, calcium, and phosphate are redeposited (remineralization) to the enamel layer from the foods and waters consumed. Too much demineralization without enough remineralization to repair the enamel layer leads to tooth decay.

Fluoride helps prevent tooth decay by making the tooth more resistant to acid attacks from plaque bacteria and sugars in the mouth. It also reverses early decay. In children under 6 years of age, fluoride becomes incorporated into the development of permanent teeth, making it difficult for acids to demineralize the teeth. Fluoride also helps speed remineralization as well as disrupts acid production in already erupted teeth of both children and adults.

Same way it helps with cum loads volume and distance.

teeth are overrated. where we are going, we dont need teeth

 

[Higus]

Bacterial waste in your saliva is acidic, and the acid breaks down your teeth. Fluoride changes the chemical composition of your teeth to make it more resistant to said acids.

EDIT: fluoride actually weakens your teeth mechanically, but increases acid resistance. With modern diets, this is a beneficial trade off. You don't need teeth strong enough to, say, gnaw a femur, but you do want teeth that can drink coffee for years without disintegrating.

Is like fossilization with poisonous metal

I'll stick with activated charcoal

First the government controls your mind. Then after that you don't really notice.

Speak for yourself

Fluoride ions as extremely small and thus the protons can get very close to the electrons in a cation the they associate with; generally moreso than the anions they replace.

The reason somehow works out to be seven degrees away from Kevin Bacon

Surprised so many countries don't poison their own water.
