The inability of the science community to move when presented with evidence is pretty remarkable. fluoride is great for protecting teeth, so put it in toothpaste and encourage people to spit it out when done. Don't poison the drinking water-supply.
When I have had this discussion with regular folks, they always say that dentists agree the evidence for fluoride protecting teeth is overwhelming. Pointing out that toothpaste already has that shit in it, allows them to accept that posioning town drinking water may not actually be necessary. baby steps.
