Sort of absurd that you think that the process of staining is comparable to a remineralization. For one thing, coffee and its colorants are thicker and they’ll adhere for longer. Fluoride is simply an elemental substance, not a molecular solution.
While we’re on the subject of cosmetic appearance: fluoride itself can gradually discolor bones such as teeth, and leave really unsightly dark spots on them; good luck to y’all’s dentists trying to distinguish where y’all’s staining came from, because they ain’t gonna blame King Fluoride for it! [They also can’t scrape off your fluorosis with their hand tools anyway...]
It may not be ineffective to formulate fluoride into a paste or gel and then a medical professional deliberately paints it onto dental caries and then carefully holds it there whilst the chemical reaction takes place: honestly, the longer the better.
But just randomly rinsing your mouth with it and then swallowing all of it immediately is the dumbest fucKing pseudoscience I’ve ever heard, yet AmeriKans have swallowed it hooK, line, and sinKer: Seig Heil, DoKtor Mengele!
- RamRodification 2y agoThere are explanations that sound reasonable to me as to why, as you put it, "rinsing your mouth with it and then swallowing all of it immediately" still has a positive effect on your teeth. Have you looked into those at all, and if so, do you dismiss them all as lies?
