Tap water may be better than bottled for kids
Delta Dental of Tennessee encourages parents to reconsider the value of tap water in this age as the trend to drink bottled water grows. The problem with most bottled water is it does not meet the daily needs of fluoride, an additive that helps prevent tooth decay. "Parents should be aware of the importance of fluoride to children’s health as tooth decay occurs faster in children than in adults," stresses Dr. Phil Wenk, president and CEO of Delta Dental of Tennessee. "Delta Dental believes that tap water may be one of the primary defenses to help children maintain their healthy smiles."
