You may want to do some research on fluoride. After doing some research my husband and I decided to stop using a fluoride toothpaste. I would never give my child fluoride tablets because fluoride is toxic. There's even a warning label on toothpaste because if your child ingests too much toothpaste the dose could either injure or cause death (if I'm remembering correctly). Anything that comes with a warning like that is a red flag to me.

Go to google.com and do a search on "fluoride toxic" and see what you come up with.

...that flouride is not a good thing to give children unless they have a flouride deficiency.......if your child uses toothpaste as well then he may be puting himself at risk, of poisoning.
Talk to a doctor tell them you are a vegan, stops me from having to take pills I don't need because they can never find any that don't have milk in them....

Good LUck :)
