Florida is poised to become the second state to ban fluoride in public drinking water under legislation that received final approval from lawmakers on April 29, ending a decades-old practice that has divided dentists and health officials.

The ban on fluoride is part of the Florida Farm Bill SB700, which passed the House in an 88–27 vote. It passed the state Senate on April 16.
