To which? These are all pulled from research, just need to know which so I don't waste my time pulling up something you're not questioning
Ideally both.
WHO guidelines for 1.5mg/L fluoride

Upper limit of 10mg/day (considered to be high by some bodies)
https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/nutrient-reference-values/nutrients/fluoride-updated-2017
Basic bath: only considering water intake, consuming 6-7 liters in a day (regular occurance working in Australia) puts you over the upper limit without considering major sources like diet, tea and dental products and treatments.
