Fluoride - Yes or No?
4.50PM Tue Jan 18 2011
Final decision imminent
Plans to add fluoride to water supplies in parts of the South will be debated at a landmark hearing. And health officials are standing firm over their decision to back the scheme. They say adding the chemical will reduce dental decay. The fluoridation plans affect 160,000 homes in Southampton, another 24,000 in Eastleigh and thousands more on the edge of the New Forest. Our social affairs correspondent Christine Alsford talked to
Sarah Peckham, dental therapist; Dr Jeyanthi John, Consultant in Dental Public Health; Royston Smith, Leader of Southampton Council; and Arshad Sharif who is opposed to fluoridation.
