Abstract
⺠Arsenic in current H2O fluoridating agents causes significant cancer treatment costs. ⺠Arsenic in USP NaF would result in 100-500-fold fewer cancers. ⺠USP NaF costs about 12 times as much as current fluoridating agents. ⺠U.S. savings as a society using USP NaF would be $1-5 billion annually. ⺠Costs and savings are not distributed evenly throughout society.
