Fluoride Treatments in Modesto, CA
Fluoride is a natural mineral, and can be found in many foods as well as many water supplies. While you will receive a certain amount of fluoride from your diet and from using fluoridated toothpaste, Dr. Surjit Chahal may recommend a professional fluoride treatment to supplement this and help prevent cavities.
Why Receive Fluoride Treatment?
Fluoride treatment is a powerful preventive measure to protect your teeth, offering an added layer of protection to your smile. Fluoride treatment helps to remineralize tooth enamel, combating the effects of bacteria, sugars and acids that attack your teeth throughout the day. This treatment is particularly beneficial for children, whose developing teeth often need extra strength to resist cavities.
The Fluoride Treatment Process
Receiving fluoride treatment at Allure Dental Care & Orthodontics is a quick and painless process. During your regular dental checkup, our dentists and team may recommend this treatment based on your oral health needs. Fluoride can be applied in various forms, including gel, varnish or foam. The application process usually takes just a few minutes. The fluoride is applied to your teeth and allowed to sit for a short period to maximize its effectiveness – a completely noninvasive and comfortable process. After the treatment, we will provide you with instructions on how to care for your teeth, such as avoiding eating or drinking for a specified time to allow the fluoride to fully absorb.
How Fluoride Benefits Your Smile
Fluoride offers significant benefits for your smile, including:
- By strengthening tooth enamel, fluoride helps to prevent tooth decay and cavities, which are common dental issues. Stronger enamel means your teeth are better equipped to withstand the daily wear and tear from eating and drinking.
- For children, fluoride is especially crucial as it aids in the development of robust, healthy teeth.
- Additionally, fluoride treatments can help reverse early signs of tooth decay, preventing the need for more extensive dental procedures in the future.
