fluoridated water, where?

[Teeth care]

Hi, where can I get fluoridated water for toddler? I used to give him in US but cannot find it here. Anyone? Thanks.

tap water has fluoride right?

[toothy grin]

i am an Aussie of the fluride generation and have great teeth, so do most of the people i know my age. so i think it has bennifits, however i wouldn't drink the tap water here, mine comes out the tap yellow at first and looks kind of "off" the rest of the time.  i have also wondered about fluride... can you take a suplement?

There are fluoride rinses sold in the U.S. (like ACT)--maybe some are available in Singapore.  You swish with these rinses for a minute or so after brushing your teeth.  But make sure the rinse has fluoride--a lot of them don't.

Strongly recommend you get your fluoride from somewhere.  Dentist told my wife that lots of kids drinking bottled water these days are having more than their share of cavities.  I rarely got fluoride as a kid (due to living in non-western countries), and in spite of all of the obsessive care I give my teeth, I have all kinds of problems.
