Why Professional Fluoride Treatments Matter

If you're looking for a way to keep your smile healthy and strong, you may want to consider regular professional fluoride treatments. A mineral that helps protect tooth enamel from decay, fluoride can also reverse the early signs of tooth decay!

Who can benefit from professional fluoride treatments?

In a nutshell: Everyone!  But some people are likely to benefit more than others. For instance, those who have a history of cavities or who are at high risk for developing them should consider regular fluoride treatments. The same applies to people who have sensitive teeth or who live in an area with low levels of fluoride in their water supply.

What are the benefits of fluoride?

Fluoride treatments offer myriad benefits, including the fact that they:

• help prevent cavities
• reverse early signs of tooth decay
• make teeth more resistant to acid attacks
• reduce sensitivity
• help prevent bone loss around the teeth.

Are fluoride treatments safe?

Yes! Our dental experts ensure that each patient receives the right amount of fluoride for their needs, based on their age, weight, and level of risk for cavities. We also take care to avoid contact with sensitive oral areas, such as the gums.
