Fluoride Water Filters
A fluoride water filter will help to prevent the onset of dental fluorosis, a
condition that can result in brown teeth. Dental fluorosis occurs as a direct
result of ingesting fluoride through drinking water or other sources. Although
there is a division over the health benefits/risks of fluoride, if you do not
want to ingest it, a fluoride water filter will accomplish this for you.

Water Softeners
Hard water causes scale to build up in pipes and on tiles, and also interferes
with soap’s ability to lather. A water softener is a device that solves this
problem by forcing water through a filter that removes the calcium and magnesium
ions that cause hard water. Water softeners range in price from thirty dollars
to several hundred dollars, depending on their quality and life span.
