SIMPLE
One of my previous dentist and I had a conversation about fluoride in water. She said you could see the trend in her kids she saw. lower income family had better teeth than higher income family (you could argue that the diet of higher income families are better or worse I guess most likely better). Said the trend was the kids that drank more bottled water (high income) had more cavities. But there isn't a real study on this that I know of.
