| I just want to relate an anecdote as evidence that this article
should be considered valuable and perhaps should be enhanced. When my dentist's assistant offered me fluoride, I asked whether it was sodium fluoride, and was told no, it's "phosphate fluoride". I said "phosphate and fluoride are both anions", so she let me read the label, which is what got me to this article. I'd still like to understand what, chemically, "acidulated" really means. I understand the documented effect (getting the pH into 3..4), but not the chemical mechanism by which it is achieved. 24.18.229.67 (talk) 04:34, 15 July 2009 (UTC) |
