Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatment helps in preventing tooth decay by making it resistant to acid attacks from plaque bacterias and sugar present inside the mouth. A dentist would apply fluoride on the teeth that come in the form of gel, varnish, or foam. You would also find fluoride supplements in the market that are available as liquids and tablets.
Fluoride sources
Optimal fluoride intake comes from food and water. Some of the most common fluoride sources would include:
- Tea
- Food cooked in water
- Fish with bones
You can also use fluoride toothpaste which would be really beneficial for the state of your teeth.
Benefits of fluoride
- Restores minerals to the tooth surface
- Reduce the growth of bacteria on teeth and prevent it from decays
- When children are exposed to fluoride, then they get better oral health and reduce the chances of acquiring cavities
- Taking fluoride is good for maintaining adult oral conditions
However, it should be kept in mind that, fluoride alone would not be able to keep your teeth in a good shape. You would have to follow the regular dental care regime properly and eat healthy in order to keep your teeth away from decay.
