Fluoride treatments are a reliable way to prevent cavities and strengthen teeth. It is an optional service you can add to your teeth cleaning. Patients choose it to add more protection, especially for children or those with a higher tooth decay risk. It is quick, easy, and is applied without discomfort.
Key Fluoride Benefits
Fluoride helps rebuild weakened enamel, making teeth more decay resistant.
The process is gentle, quick, and comfortable. We don’t use drills or injections to do it.
Regular fluoride treatments can significantly reduce the cavity risk and help fight tooth decay.
A dentist or hygienist applies a concentrated fluoride gel, foam, or varnish to your teeth using a brush, sponge, or another applicator. The fluoride is left on your teeth as you leave the office and penetrates into the enamel to strength it with minerals. You can eat an hour or so after treatment.
Anyone can benefit from fluoride treatments. They are not limited to age as children, teens, and adults can undergo the process. Those who have enamel erosion and are prone to cavities benefit the most. A fluoride treatment adds another level of protection to your routine oral health care.
