Most toothpastes contain fluoride. This is where some people's knowledge ends.
And if anything has “fluorine” in the name, it must be the same stuff that’s in toothpaste. Logical, right? Because chemistry is something that no one really wants to understand anyway. *wink*
This is probably what happens to the gentleman who impressively displays his non-existent knowledge:

The picture shows a bag labeled “Sodium Fluorosilicate,” along with a warning label with a skull and the label “Toxic 6.”
The Lord writes:
“This is the stuff that’s in your toothpaste and what dentists like to brush on their customers’ teeth.
By the way, rat poison consists of 95% of this.
It’s definitely healthy and good for your teeth too!”
Below the text there is also a legal reference to the author of the text. Since this refers to the rights of the “Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin” (which no longer exists since 1918 ), we will not pay any further attention to it.

What is Sodium Fluorosilicate?
The German name for it is sodium hexafluorosilicate , also sodium fluorosilicate, previously called sodium silicofluoride.
The chemical formula is Na 2 SiF 6 .
It is used as an opacifying agent in glass and enamel production and as a pesticide, and in the USA for the fluoridation of drinking water. In larger quantities it is harmful, hence the warning .
What's in toothpaste?
The fluoride in toothpaste is sodium fluoride .
The chemical formula is NaF.
It is used in pharmaceutical products to prevent and treat bone loss (osteoporosis) and in toothpaste to protect tooth enamel from tooth decay and promote dental development in children.
This fluoride is toxic at an average level of 52 milligrams per kilogram in adults; in children the toxic dose is around 5 milligrams per kilogram.
Let's compare again!
Sodium hexafluorosilicate consists of 2 sodium, 1 silicon, 6 fluorine.
Sodium fluoride consists of 1 sodium, 1 fluorine.
Apart from the fact that both sodium and fluorine occur in both substances, there are no similarities; chemically they have completely different effects.

Conclusion
The gentleman read “fluorine” in the name and immediately believes that the substance in the sack and the substance in the toothpaste are the same thing.
The same logic can also dihydrogen monoxide , a substance that is used, among other things, to make bombs and is found in 100% of all vaccinations. 😉
