As far as teeth, how about stop eating sugar all day. I am on well water in Massachusetts, no fluoride and I use no-fluoride toothpaste because fluoride causes me burning mouth syndrome. I haven't had a cavity in my adult life.
Fluoride has been added to US water systems for about 75 years. The "explosion" in autism began about 20 years ago. There's not even a correlation!

Chlorine is toxic as well. Would you suggest we also stop adding chlorine to water?
