Is there fluoride in the water

In the UK, water fluoridation is implemented in certain regions to help reduce tooth decay. However, it is not uniform across the country. The areas with fluoridated water include parts of the West Midlands, the North East of England, and some areas in Yorkshire. Specifically:

  1. West Midlands: This region has the most extensive water fluoridation coverage in the UK. Most of the population in Birmingham, Coventry, and surrounding areas receive fluoridated water.
  2. North East England: Areas like Newcastle and some parts of County Durham and Northumberland have fluoridated water supplies.
  3. Yorkshire: Some parts of South Yorkshire, particularly in and around the city of Sheffield, also have fluoridated water.

In addition, there are a few smaller schemes in other parts of the UK, but these are less widespread. It’s important to note that not all areas within these regions are covered, and the decision to fluoridate water is typically made at the local level, sometimes in response to public health needs.

In Scotland and Wales, water fluoridation is not widely practiced, with a greater emphasis placed on other forms of fluoride delivery, such as fluoride varnishes and toothpaste.

For up-to-date information on specific areas, you can often check with local water suppliers or public health authorities, as the extent of fluoridation can change over time due to policy decisions.
