It does. But I don’t know if there’s a reason we fluoridate water and not something else, like iodine in salt and all the stuff they put in enriched flour.
Perhaps has to do with the medium and the tendency of things to decay away. Maybe fluoride is stable in water, but something like Vitamin D would break down. Sunlight for example breaks down some things like that. I imagine water is probably a difficult medium to survive in for a lot of things.
