The Importance of Fluoride in Dental Care

Fluoride has been a cornerstone of dental care for decades. At Langley Dental, we offer fluoride treatments as part of our preventive care services to help patients maintain strong, cavity-free smiles.

What is Fluoride?

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. It also helps remineralize areas of enamel that have been weakened by acid attacks from bacteria and sugars.

Who Benefits from Fluoride?

Children:

Fluoride supports the development of strong, healthy teeth.

Adults:

Fluoride helps protect teeth from decay, especially for individuals prone to cavities or with a history of gum disease.

How We Use Fluoride

Professional Fluoride Treatments:

During cleanings, we apply fluoride varnish or gel for added protection.

Daily Use:

We recommend fluoride toothpaste and, in some cases, rinses for at-home care.

The Long-Term Benefits

Fluoride treatments are a simple, painless, and cost-effective way to prevent cavities and maintain dental health.

Strengthen your smile with fluoride. Contact Langley Dental to schedule your preventive care appointment today.
