Wellington - Fluoridation controversy - Which city is next?
From the start of my dental career in 1978, I have stayed focused on Preventive Dental Care. Preventive care starts with fluoride in drinking water at an optimal level of 2 ppm. Like anything, excess is bad, so we trust our Health Department and Ministry responsible for drinking water, NOT to slip the rug out from under our feet as has happened in Wellington.
-
Fluoride in drinking water changes weak and soluble dentine and enamel into acid resistant dentine & enamel. Hydroxyapatite changes to Fluorapatite - at a molecular level, making teeth resistant to decay. Fluoride applications and toothpastes are poor substitutes for fluoride in drinking water - specially in children.
-
As ratepayers, we trust those elected to positions of authority to be transparent and clearly on our side, not running on their own agenda. Even with water fluoridation, excess sugar consumption will damage teeth. Public Health starts with excellent Preventive Dental Care.

I was interviewed a few days ago to discuss the Wellington fluoridation debacle. Some snippets are covered in the News Hub and TV3 article.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
