Attorney Nidel says, "We're at the beginning of what looks to be an absolutely enormous wave of new fluoride <br /> litigation. There are so many harmed teenagers with fluorosis. We have the government's own data to prove <br /> that. Potentially millions with fluorosis will want to talk to an attorney, and believe me, plaintiff attorneys and <br /> the plaintiffs'bar are beginning to educate themselves about all this." <br /> "The National Research Council's 2006 fluoride report raised concerns about possible harm that goes well <br /> beyond dental fluorosis," he continues. "It appears that millions of kidney patients and diabetics were not told <br /> about their increased susceptibility to harm from fluorides by their water providers or healthcare professionals," <br /> he says. <br /> 111111 <br /> Reference Links/ Sources: <br /> * Full text of filedc n laint and client teeth photo: see two links at: http://www.nidellaw.com/blog/?p=6 <br /> * Example of dental journal discussing potential litigation related to fluorosis: "It is only a matter of time until a <br /> case is brought that gets public attention.
