"Fluorosis is poisoning by fluorides"
--Websters Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary
Dental fluorosis is one result of too much fluoride.
It is impossible to control the amount of water people drink; therefore, it is impossible to control how much fluoride adults, children, and infants consume.  In addition, many beverages, baby foods, cereals, and juices, processed with fluoridated water, already contain unsafe levels of fluoride far above the amount suggested for our water.
The American Dental Association's Recommendations for
Daily Fluoride Supplementation:

                Pregnant women -- none

                Infants to six months -- none
