How Fluoride Works
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and sugary foods. It also helps repair early signs of tooth decay by remineralizing weakened enamel.
Sources of Fluoride
Toothpaste and Mouthwash:
These products contain fluoride to reinforce daily oral care.
Drinking Water:
Many communities add fluoride to their water supply to protect public dental health.
Professional Treatments:
Dentists offer fluoride varnishes or gels for added protection.
Who Benefits from Fluoride?
Fluoride is safe and beneficial for people of all ages. Children, in particular, benefit from fluoride during tooth development, while adults can use it to prevent decay and strengthen their enamel.
Fluoride is a simple and effective way to maintain strong teeth and prevent cavities. Schedule your fluoride treatment at Langley Dental today!
