      This is not that hard, scientists... Let the dentist apply topical fluoride. Don't take fluoride during pregnancy until new data make it look safer. That will be a while. @gorskon And stop ridiculing people who very reasonably and scientifically disagree with you.https://twitter.com/SkepticalDDS/status/1195057663190732800 …

      At excessively high doses. In mice. Nice try, but not applicable here.

      Because everyone has easy access to a dentist for topical fluoride treatments, right Jay? https://www.ada.org/en/press-room/news-releases/2015-archive/may/new-cdc-data-on-adult-cavities …

      It's disingenuous PR theater. Clear formulaic tactic: 1. He can tweet/speak in public abt any claim and say "Hmm public... Something to ponder") 2. Critics call him out w/valid evid 3. Calls his critics condescending/inconsiderate of his concerned patients

      That sums it up. Then when he actually deigns to respond to criticism, he NEVER just responds. He ALWAYS subtweets, so that he can sic his followers on the person he’s responding to. It’s really blatant and why I almost always return the favor and subtweet my responses to him.

          Yes. For example, when I engaged with him last weekend, he sat back as an anti-fluoride activism group joined the fray and @'d me with their followers (Anti-fluoride twitter is a thing.) Basically tactics that wld never fly in debate in any sci research colloq, grand rounds, etc.

          It took me a while to realize that anti-fluoride twitter was a thing and not a Parks & Rec parody. I thought I was talking to a bot at first….
