Dentists are the ones who are pro-fluoridation … at least it was a dental trade group that fought the release of this report (maybe they are funded behind the scenes by a different interest group)

The cynical position would be that dentists in areas without fluoridation have more work.
Maybe. At least the Dental academy and association of LDS Dentists thinks so:

It was a weird position against back then similar to the anti-vax position today.
