USA - Fluoride vote stirs debate

North Baldwin is not the only utility finding itself thrust into a fluoride debate. Richard Peterson, superintendent of Riviera Utilities in Foley, said he has fielded customer questions for a while, including from a local dentist who strongly opposes fluoridation.
Peterson has contacted the American Dental Association on several occasions with a list of questions on fluoride and received detailed responses supporting fluoridation.
His board's position remains that as long as the ADA recommends fluoridation, Riviera Utilities will continue its program, Peterson said.

In Bay Minette, Padgett said he and his board are open to a public debate on the issue. So far, no groups have requested to speak to the board, he said.
