What is the use of fluoride toothpaste?
Fluoride ions in small amounts strengthen the surface of tooth enamel, hydroxyapatite. In an area where drinking water contains no natural traces of fluoride people get more caries and need more fillings. In some countries fluoride is added to drinking water.
How many forms of fluoride are there?
Well, I don't have a number for you. I can tell you that in Dentistry we use 3 main types of fluoride for therapeutic use. NaF also known as sodium fluoride APF also know is acidulated phosphate fluoride SnF also known as stannous fluoride Fluoride may occur in many other forms that I am not aware of, but these are the forms that are used to produce clinical results. I couldn't tell you how many forms of fluoride there, but if you are concerned that you need fluoride for your teeth, don't worry, If you get your teeth cleaned the recommended twice a year, the dentist should do a fluoride treatment. That is plenty. Also, If you live in the city, you are getting additional fluoride because most cities add a small amaount of fluoride to their drinking water resurves for this purpose, not to mention it helps keep the water you are drinking healthy. i thought there was like 600 and even more

Is arrowhead water distilled?
Arrowhead sells multiple types of water. If you see 100% mountain spring water on their label, then its not distilled. That means it still has naturally occurring fluoride and other minerals in it. If you see Distilled water on label, then the water could be distilled municipal /well water. Do not use distilled water for daily use as it does not have necessary minerals. But distill water is probably better than drinking tap water or spring water as "No Fluoride poison in it!"

What are the two ways fluoride is made available to tooth surfaces?
The two ways fluoride is made available to the tooth's enamel are topically and systemically. Topically is to use fluoridated toothpaste, fluoride treatment or similar agent such as fluoridated mouth wash. Fluoride benefits (if any) via systemic application are described in the "theory" that by ingesting fluoride such as fluoridated drinking water, consuming a beverage or any food or drink that is made with or contains the chemical compound fluoride (or otherwise processed by fluoridated city drinking water) enters the body and is absorbed into the body fluids. Simple water filtration does not remove the fluoride, so anything such as tap water, fruit juice or Gatorade will contain fluoride if the source of the water is fluoridated. The two most successful ways to remove the fluoride is by Reverse Osmosis filtration or Distillation. Most cities in the United States add fluoride to drinking water so that your body can ingest it and the thinking behind this is that the fluoride is made available to the tooth's enamel via the saliva and thus absorbed into the enamel. The Fluoride Myth claims that this absorption of fluoride into the enamel causes the tooth enamel to re-mineralize and thereby strengthen it. The problem is that there have been no sound studies to prove this "re-mineralization process". It has been a lie told to us for decades so we would believe that fluoride is good for us. Fluoride is the byproduct of sulfuric acid reacting with the naturally occurring mineral fluorspar (also known as fluorapatite). Fluoride is also produced by aluminum metal manufacturing, fertilizer manufacturing, as well as atomic bomb making. Fluoride compounds are used for glass etching, electroplating, rust and stain removal, cleaning agents and have also been used in rat poison. More and more researchers and chemists are coming forward to prove that Fluoride is actually a harmful poison and that it does damage to bones, teeth and causes brain damage in infants as well as other psychological disorders in children such as ADHD, etc. All you have to do is spend some time searching Fluoride on your favorite search engine and you will find the truth - good luck.
