Louisiana is one vote away from banning fluoride in public water. Dentists warn it could lead to more cavities, especially in kids.

Lawmakers in Florida approved a bill to prohibit certain additives in drinking water, effectively banning fluoride, and the measure now goes to Gov. Ron DeSantis for a signature. If it’s finalized, Florida will become the second state to ban fluoride in municipal drinking water.

Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo became the nation's first top state health official to publicly oppose fluoride in water. Since then, more than a dozen other Florida communities have ended fluoridation. Supporters of the ban say it should be about personal choice, The Post reported.
