Sorta, Flouride helps strengthen the tooth, most cities have flouride in the water supply, if you are flossing and brushing well, for two full minutes twice a day to remove the bacteria in plaque that harms the teeth effectively, your chances of tooth decay is less. If you are prone to tooth decay, I would use flouride toothpaste though, and maybe even a flouride after to give you teeth the strength they need to resist decay.

Can a child brush her teeth with a flouride toothpaste and drink water with flouride?
If your child is at the age (younger than 6) which she will swallow some of the paste, it is best to brush with just water. The optimal level of fluoride is 1.1 parts per million. If your area is higher (many are) in fluoride than 1.1 ppm, and you are cooking with said water, best to go with either just water on the brush, or a non-fluoride paste. Too much fluoride can cause discoloration of permanent teeth developing in the jaws.
