Reported by: Kathryn BarrettTooth decay is the most common chronic illness among preschoolers, and the Norfolk Health Department hopes to help take a bite out of those dental problems. A child is prone to developing cavities long before he or she has eaten a first piece of candy. Two reasons why yound children can develop tooth decay are; firstly, children have much more sugar in their diets and second, children drink more bottled water, which usually does not contain fluoride. ...........................................

So even if the water is fluoridated you still get tooth decay.
