Definition
British spelling of fluoridate; to add fluoride to water supplies or dental products to improve dental health and prevent decay.
Etymology
From 'fluoride' plus the British English suffix '-ise' (equivalent to American '-ize'), following Commonwealth spelling conventions.
Kelly Says
The British prefer '-ise' endings while Americans use '-ize', which is why the same chemical process is spelled 'fluoridate' in the USA and 'fluoridise' in the UK, Australia, and Canada.
