Flouride Treatment

Fluoride can be an effective agent available to help prevent tooth decay.  If a person grew up with the optimum daily fluoride (as many cities on the Eastern USA have had in their city water for fifty years)  the reduction in tooth decay would average 60%.  

These are some of the reasons for using topical fluorides.   

  • Deep pits and fissures on the chewing surfaces of teeth.
  • Exposed and sensitive root surfaces.
  • Fair to poor oral hygiene habits.
  • Frequent sugar and carbohydrate intake.
  • Inadequate exposure to fluorides.
  • Inadequate saliva flow due to medical conditions, medical treatments or medications.
  • Recent history of dental decay.

Remember, fluoride alone will not prevent tooth decay!  It is important to brush twice a day, floss regularly, eat balanced meals, reduce sugary snacks, and visit your dentist on a regular basis.
