In some cases. It depends on the composition of the local rocks and soil and on what water pollution may be present.
Fluoride is added to drinking water to prevent tooth decay
Sodium fluoride dissolves in water but does not chemically react with water.
Distillation does remove at least some fluoride - this is why a dentist will recommend fluoride treatment at your 6-month dental cleaning if you drink distilled or filtered water. However, to get all the fluoride out the water would have to be deionized.
But merely boiling the water will not eliminate the fluoride and can in fact concentrate it because you have the same amount of fluoride in less water. You can distill the water. Meaning you can boil the water then capture the steam, which will be pure. But the process is expensive. You need special filters to remove the fluoride.
Fluoride is in the water for the same reason it is toothpaste. It makes teeth stronger and less susceptible to forming cavities.
is it fluoride
Fluoride is found in tap water, but in some states it isn't in they're water.
No, it has chlorine in it, and sometimes fluoride, as well.
No information about adding fluoride to the town's water could be found on the town's website. To find out if they add fluoride, you may need to call their water mangement department. To go to their site, see the Related Link.
Normally potting soils don't contain much fluoride at all. Fluoride is normally found in water, normally at about 5-10 parts per million
The primary benefit, and the only one I know, is the reduction in cavities in teeth. The fluoride strengthens the teeth. I only drink my well water which does not have fluoride, so I must take extra care to brush my teeth.
yes
No. Boiling water will not remove fluoride. Distilling it will.
Pure water does not contain fluoride, but much drinking water does contain fluoride that is deliberately added to reduce tooth decay of children who drink the water. Some drinking water supplies also contain fluoride naturally.

Yes hydrogen fluoride can be dissolved in pure water.
