Strengthening Your Teeth with Fluoride Treatments

Dentist 20613

Fluoride treatments are an excellent way to prevent dental decay. This simple, non-invasive procedure helps to strengthen your enamel. After your cleaning, we apply a fluoride-rich varnish or gel, and you may need to avoid eating or drinking for about 30 minutes afterward. Fluoride initiates a process called remineralization, restoring essential minerals like calcium and phosphates to your teeth, making your enamel hard and resistant to acids that cause tooth decay.
