About this talk:
Community water fluoridation continues to be a
controversial in New Zealand. Thames is the latest community to face
this issue in an October referendum. Local bodies are frustrated by the
lobbying the bombarded with on this issue and are asking central
government to take responsibility for it.
Many of the claims made
about fluoridation are misleading and scientific research is often
distorted to support these claims. Dr Ken Perrott will describe what the
science is really saying about community water fluoridation.About the speaker:
Dr Ken Perrott is a
retired research scientist. He is the scientific advisor for Making
sense of Fluoride – a local group working to overcome confusion on the
issue (http://msof.nz/).
