Do people who live in the UK have bad teeth?

Question

My granddaughter is living in London and a friend told me she will probably have bad teeth because there's no flouride in the water. She's five years old and moved there one year ago.

Answer 1

not all the people in UK have bad teeth. It all depends on how they take care of their teeth. It is also make sense that fluoride can reduce tooth decay and UK seems like they do not have fluoride in the water.

Answer 2

That is the stereo type, yes. It does seem that Brits have rather bad teeth in general. I would not take it lightly though. Get your little girl on some flouride pills and seek out a good dentist there asap. The last thing she needs is bad teeth, yuk!
