Fluoridation Woodforth was quoted by the Courier Mail as being in support of ceasing fluoridation of the Queensland water supply. This was at odds with Woodforth's maiden speech, where he was concerned by rising health care costs in Australia. He has been disciplined by prominent Queensland LNP member and former dentist John-Paul Langbroek for these comments, as well as receiving a critical editorial from the Courier Mail. Andrew Wong of the Australian Dental Association agreed with ABC AM interviewer Annie Guest that the LNP was possibly appeasing an "uninformed minority". In this interview, Woodforth avoided answering questions regarding his lack of formal education he had in health care, by stating "What I say to people is you actually don't need letters after your name to work out what's right and what's wrong".
