Option B. In the growth of bones, the enamel of the teeth, and thyroid glands, fluorine helps. The way it fights against cavities that contain bacteria or acidity is by mixing the tooth enamel with phosphorus and calcium ions. This will result in fluorapatite, a phosphate compound in the form of a strong crystalline solid, being formed. But this only works in moderation. Natural fluoride bioavailability is found to be about ninety percent. This implies that almost all of the fluoride injected naturally gives the body ample fluorine production. This is where contamination from fluorine comes in.
