The NZ Dental Association Response

For the production of Fluoride on the Brain, we approached the New Zealand Dental Association, but unfortunately, no one was able to be interviewed in time for our deadline. However, Dr. Robin Whyman, the NZDA’s Director of Dental Policy has since provided written answers to our questions.
