| I know some Spring Water does have natural flouride in it, but I don't know much about the stuff that's added. |

I wouldn't trust Wiki for information  . What do you mean it isn't used in the US anymore?
But if you have city water, you don't GET a CHOICE. |

 I dunno - I did the flouride swish all through school and now I have perfect teeth and no cavities and I'm 23 - it seems to have done well by me, and I don't brush any more or less than everyone else |
