Fluoride

Fluoride

Fluoride works by strengthening the enamel, making it more resistant to tooth decay. It can also help to reverse early signs of tooth decay. Fluoride treatment is usually recommended for children and adults at a higher risk of tooth decay, such as those who have dry mouth, a history of cavities or for patients who have undergone orthodontic treatment.
The process of fluoride treatment in dentistry typically involves the following steps:

Consultation

A dentist will examine your mouth and take x-rays to determine the overall health of your teeth and gums. They will discuss with you any areas of concern and the recommended treatment plan.

Cleaning

The dentist or dental hygienist will use specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) from the teeth and gums.

Application Of Fluoride

Fluoride can be applied in several forms, such as gels, foams, varnishes, or in a tray. The dentist or dental hygienist will apply the fluoride to the teeth, usually in the form of a gel or foam, which is then left on the teeth for several minutes.

Rinse

After the fluoride has been applied, the patient will be asked to rinse their mouth thoroughly to remove any excess fluoride.

Follow-Up

The patient will need to have regular follow-up appointments, usually every six months, to maintain good oral health and to monitor the progress of the treatment.

It’s important to note that fluoride should be used in moderation, as excessive fluoride intake can lead to fluorosis, which is a condition that causes discoloration and mottling of the teeth. It is always best to consult with your dentist or dental hygienist to determine if fluoride treatment is appropriate for you, and how often it should be administered.
