New York State Department of Health dentist J. V. Kumar published national statistics in the July 2009 JADA which show similar cavity rates regardless of water fluoride content, However, dental fluorosis rates increased along with water fluoride levels. See analysis “Fluoridation No Benefit; Definite Harm,” by Kathleen M. Thiessen, Ph.D., SENES Oak Ridge, Inc., Center for Risk Analysis 65 years of water fluoridation (the purposeful addition of low levels of fluoride chemicals into drinking water), the US Centers for Disease Control reports that 49% of 6-11 year-olds have cavities and 40% have dental fluorosis. Science has proven fluoridation to be a complete failure at its stated purpose - reducing tooth decay; but it has increased dental income by sending more children to the dentist to get their fluoride discolored teeth covered up
