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.
