What Are Fluoride Treatments?

Fluoride treatments involve the application of a concentrated form of fluoride to the teeth. This mineral helps to strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. Fluoride is particularly beneficial for children as their teeth are still developing.

Benefits of Fluoride Treatments

  1. Strengthens Tooth Enamel
    Fluoride treatments help to harden tooth enamel, making it more resistant to the acids produced by bacteria in the mouth. This significantly reduces the risk of cavities and tooth decay.
  2. Prevents Tooth Decay
    Regular fluoride treatments can help prevent the development of cavities. By reinforcing the enamel, fluoride creates a barrier against harmful bacteria and acids.
  3. Safe and Quick Application
    The application of fluoride is a quick and painless process. Our skilled pediatric dentists in Kerrville, Culebra, and other locations ensure that the treatment is comfortable for your child.

Our Fluoride Treatment Process

At Tots to Teens Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we follow a comprehensive approach to fluoride treatments:

  1. Comprehensive Dental Exam and X-Rays
    Before applying fluoride, our dentists perform a thorough dental exam and take x-rays to assess your child's overall oral health. Visit our preventive dentistry page for more details.
  2. Professional Teeth Cleaning
    A professional cleaning removes plaque and debris from the teeth, ensuring that the fluoride can penetrate the enamel effectively. Learn more about our teeth cleaning services.
  3. Fluoride Application
    The fluoride is carefully applied to the teeth and left for a few minutes to allow absorption. This creates a strong, protective barrier against cavities.
