On January 25, 1945, sodium fluoride was slowly poured into Grand Rapids , Michigan ’s public water supply to prove that fluoridation reduces children’s tooth decay. Five years into the experiment, things weren’t going as expected. Cavities declined equally in the non-fluoridated control city of Muskegon , too.
n the letter, Evins demands retraction of eight "false or misleading statements" about fluoridation made as fact, and not opinion, in Mouden's position as a dentist and public servant. It demands he either state they are his opinion, or if fact, support them with scientific proof, or retract them. He had five working days to respond or the citizens would take further action.
