The Fluoride test checks for the levels of fluoride in your water. Fluoride can occur naturally in groundwater, and it's commonly added to municipal water supplies (city water) to aid in the prevention of tooth decay. However, exposure to excessive levels of fluoride can lead to health effects, especially in children. Excessive consumption of fluoride over a lifetime may lead to increased likelihood of bone fractures in adults, and may result in effects on bone leading to pain and tenderness. Children aged 8 years and younger exposed to excessive amounts of fluoride have an increased chance of developing pits in the tooth enamel, along with a range of cosmetic effects to teeth and perhaps other health effects.
