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.
