West Virginia University. (2020, February 6). Chemical found in drinking water linked to tooth decay in children. ScienceDaily Citat: "...Researchers found that higher concentrations of PFAS were associated with greater tooth decay in children...Scientists have linked them to a range of health problems -- from heart disease to high cholesterol -- but now R. Constance Wiener and Christopher Waters are exploring how they affect dental health...But how does that influence happen? Wiener and Waters have a hypothesis. According to other research, perfluorodecanoic acid may disrupt the healthy development of enamel, which is what makes teeth hard. That disruption can leave teeth susceptible to decay...R. Constance Wiener, Christopher Waters. Perfluoroalkyls/polyfluoroalkyl substances and dental caries experience in children, ages 3–11 years, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2013–2014.
