Tooth decay and cavities are one of the most common dental problems that people, young and old, face. Tooth decay is the result of bacteria in the mouth breaking down sugars and carbohydrates in food and drink, which produces harmful acids that damage your teeth over time. These acids can eat away at tooth enamel, causing cavities.
We believe that oral hygiene and preventative dental care are the foundation of a healthy mouth and improved overall well-being. As a leading local dentist, we are proud to provide dental fluoride treatments as an effective and popular dental solution to our patients prone to tooth decay.
What Is A Dental Fluoride Treatment?
Dental Hygiene Solutions
Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps to rebuild tooth enamel and reverse the early signs of tooth decay by making it resistant to acid attacks from plaque and bacteria build-up. It is especially important for young children as this provides them with a positive foundation for strong teeth and overall dental health.
Dental fluoride and cavity treatments contain a high-concentration form of fluoride rinse to strengthen the enamel. This dental treatment contains more fluoride than your traditional toothpaste or drinking water, making them a highly effective dental treatment. Here, the enamel of your teeth is repaired and the lost calcium and phosphorus is replenished.

Protecting tooth enamel
Over time, the enamel of your teeth will begin to wear down and form small cracks, leaving it vulnerable to damage and is the primary reason that cavities appear. Fluoride treatments protect against these acids and prevent them from corroding through your enamel and exposing the inner sections of your tooth.
Restoring lost minerals in your teeth
Not only does acid break down the enamel in your teeth but destroy the minerals that keep your teeth strong. By brushing your teeth with and scheduling regular fluoride treatments, you can rebuild the inner sections of your teeth and ensure they remain healthy and strong.
Works to prevent cavities and tooth decay
While it may not seem like a huge problem to start with, if left untreated, cavities can lead to extensive tooth decay, discomfort and infection. By protecting and strengthening the teeth with dental fluoride treatments, you can help prevent this from happening.
Save on expensive dental treatments
Long-untreated cavities and tooth decay can be expensive to treat, often requiring root canals, fillings or even tooth implants in serious cases. With fluoride treatments, you can help prevent these more serious problems, saving you time, money and stress!

Frequently Asked Questions
Fluoride is a natural mineral that is often found in a variety of food, drinks and toothpastes.
Our bodies take in fluoride in two ways, Systematically and topically. Topical fluoride works to strengthen already-developed teeth and enamel, making them more resistant to decay. This is done through caring for our teeth with toothpaste, mouth rinses and dental treatments.
Systematic fluoride strengthens both developing and already developed teeth. We gain this through the food we eat and the water we drink. It can also be taken in the form of supplement drops and gels that are prescribed by a dentist or physician.
Over time different liquids and food will begin to break down the enamel on your teeth. Once this enamel is broken through, it can begin to break down the inner sections of your teeth, leading to decay and, eventually, painful infections. This will require restorative dentistry procedures to effectively treat and manage.
The best way to prevent cavities and decay is to practice a healthy oral hygiene routine. This means brushing your teeth at least twice a day, flossing once a day, and rinsing with an antibacterial mouthwash. You should also visit your dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings.
Similarly, eating less sugar and carbohydrates will also help to reduce the number of cavities and decay you will experience.
