Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride varnish is a concentrated, protective coating painted onto teeth by dental professionals to strengthen enamel, prevent cavities, and slow decay by releasing fluoride slowly. It's a quick, safe, and effective treatment, especially for children, hardening on contact with saliva and releasing fluoride over hours to help remineralize weakened spots. Regular application (often twice yearly) is a key part of preventing early childhood tooth decay.
How It Works & Its Benefits
- Strengthens enamel: Makes teeth more resistant to acid attacks that cause decay.
- Remineralization: Helps repair demineralized (weakened) areas of the tooth.
- Slows decay: Can stop or reverse early decay.
- Quick & easy: Applied with a small brush in minutes, hardening quickly.
