Fluoride Accumulation in Arterial Calcified Plaques

Yes, fluoride does accumulate in arterial calcified plaques.
Research indicates that fluoride ions have a high affinity for calcium and actively bind to areas of calcification within the cardiovascular system.
When fluoride is ingested through water, dental products, or supplements, a portion of it deposits wherever hydroxyapatite crystals are forming, including the arterial walls.
This accumulation is particularly pronounced in advanced atherosclerotic plaques that are undergoing calcification.
The presence of fluoride in these plaques can accelerate the hardening of the arteries, as it alters the crystalline structure of the calcium deposits, making them less soluble and more stable.
Chronic exposure to excessive fluoride thus contributes to vascular pathology, exacerbating arterial stiffness and cardiovascular risk over time.
