A member asked:
Can ingestion one tube of toothpaste cause skeletal fluorosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No. Have you ever heard of this occurring, except in perhaps sources such as the Globe or the Enquirer? HAS NOT been reported in well referred journals. You keep asking questions about self-poisoning. Why? Fluoride, like Chloride, is only dangerous if ingested in massive amounts, therapeutic in normal consumption. Please see someone about your fixation.
