Public H2O Systems in the U.S.

While browsing around on the Nathe website I was very interested to find statistics for people on public water systems that are receiving fluoridated water. Sadly enough, Utah had the lowest numbers BY FAR. Some of the ones I looked into were Idaho: 47.5%, Texas: 65.7%, California: 27.6%, Nevada: 69.4%, and Arizona: 55%. Maryland is at 93.7% and Utah in last place at 2.2%. The differences between states, especially compared to Utah are pretty drastic. My question is what can we do in our community to promote fluoridation more? Anyone have any great ideas?...
