Enhance Your Smile With Professional Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride treatments are designed to enhance the protection of your teeth, making them stronger and more resistant to cavities. While fluoride is commonly found in toothpaste and mouthwashes, professional fluoride treatments offer an extra layer of defense. These treatments are beneficial for both adults and children, providing added protection for your smile, regardless of your daily fluoride routine.
Why Consider Fluoride Treatments?
Fluoride treatments can be especially beneficial if you're more prone to tooth decay. Children and teens, who may struggle with proper brushing and flossing, are often at higher risk. For others, fluoride treatments serve as an additional measure to strengthen teeth in conjunction with at-home oral care practices.
Who is a Good Candidate for Fluoride Treatments?
Determining if fluoride treatments are right for you is simple and can be assessed during an exam. For children, we often recommend fluoride treatments to maintain healthy, strong teeth. However, most patients, regardless of age, can benefit from these treatments. They can be performed as frequently as necessary to ensure optimal dental health.
What to Expect During Fluoride Treatments?
Fluoride treatments are quick and straightforward. First, you'll relax in one of our comfortable dental chairs while we clean your teeth. Next, a liquid fluoride is gently applied to your teeth. Afterward, we'll give you instructions on how to care for your teeth post-treatment. To allow the fluoride to fully absorb, you'll need to avoid eating or drinking for about an hour.
Many of our patients choose to have fluoride treatments during each visit, whether it's for a cleaning or checkup, to provide extra protection for their smile.
