About Our Fluoride Treatments
What are Fluoride Treatments?
What is Fluoride Treatment?
Fluoride treatment is a professional dental procedure that involves the application of fluoride to the teeth in the form of a gel, foam, varnish, or rinse. Fluoride, a naturally occurring mineral, helps to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent cavities by making teeth more resistant to acid attacks from plaque bacteria and sugars in the mouth.
When is Fluoride Treatment Needed?
Fluoride treatments are especially beneficial for:
- Children and Teens: As their teeth are still developing, they are more susceptible to cavities.
- Adults with High Cavity Risk: Those with a history of frequent cavities, poor oral hygiene, or inadequate fluoride exposure.
- Patients with Dry Mouth Conditions: Reduced saliva flow, which can be caused by medications or medical conditions, increases the risk of tooth decay.
- Individuals with Dental Appliances: Braces, bridges, or crowns can trap food and bacteria, leading to a higher risk of cavities.
- People with Gum Disease: Gum disease can expose more of the tooth and roots to bacteria, increasing the risk of decay.
When Can Fluoride Treatments Help?
Fluoride treatments offer numerous benefits:
- Strengthens Tooth Enamel: Fluoride helps rebuild weakened tooth enamel and reverses early signs of tooth decay.
- Reduces Cavity Risk: Regular fluoride treatments can significantly lower the risk of cavities, particularly in children and those with a high risk of dental decay.
- Protects Against Acid Attacks: Fluoride forms a barrier on your teeth, protecting them from acid produced by plaque bacteria and sugars.
- Supports Overall Oral Health: By preventing cavities, fluoride treatments contribute to maintaining healthier teeth and gums, leading to better overall oral health.
