1. Introduction
Fluoride is used in the production of fluoridated dental products as well as it is used in drinking water fluoridation processes [1,2]. The World Health Organization establishes an acceptable level for drinking water, which ranges from 0.7 to 1.0 mg/L-1. However, fluoride concentrations of up to 20 mg have been recorded in some countries [3]. Sodium fluoride NaF was reported to be present in water at a range of 9 mg L-1 to 17 mg L-1 [4] and concentrations between 1.5 mg L-

Water-fluoridation stance
Of the 55 web pages included in the scoring process, 28 (51%) were pro-fluoridation, 16 (29%) were neutral and 11 (20%) were anti-fluoridation. Analysis of the top 10 results returned by the most-used search term (‘fluoridation of water’) showed that of the top 43 results (seven were excluded from scoring), 20 (46.5%) were pro-fluoridation and 13 (30.2%) were neutral. The remaining 10 (23.2%) were anti-fluoridation, with the majority coming from fluoridea
Fluoride is commonly found in the soil and water environment and may act as chronic poison. A large amount of fluoride deposition causes serious harm to the ecological environment and human health. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a shared feature of fluorosis, and numerous studies reported this phenomenon in different model systems. More and more evidence shows that the functions of mitochondria play an extremely influential role in the organs and tissues after fluorosis
