    Fluoride is effective topically, a side effect of too much fluoride is what you describe. Like eating too many carrots turns your skin orange. Your skin turning orange is not proof that it is working rather a side effect of too much beta carotene.

    Fluoride works by disrupting the the bacteria and strengthening the enamel of your teeth. I mean the only silliness here is you at this point. There is a reason you are not supposed to swallow fluoride toothpaste and that there is a poison control number on the box.

    In fact, I would say at this point, since you are so uniformed, you are just being rude.
