Fluoride is a natural mineral that plays a key role in preventing cavities and maintaining strong teeth. While many people receive fluoride through drinking water or toothpaste, professional fluoride treatments provide an added layer of protection – especially for those at higher risk of tooth decay. Our office offers fluoride treatments in Mountain Brook, Alabama, to help patients of all ages enjoy healthier, more resilient smiles.
What Is Fluoride Treatment?
Fluoride treatment involves applying a highly concentrated form of fluoride to the teeth, usually in the form of a gel, foam or varnish. This treatment:
- Strengthens enamel and helps reverse early signs of decay
- Reduces sensitivity in certain areas of the mouth
- Offers additional protection for patients with higher cavity risk
- Supports children and adults in maintaining strong, healthy teeth
The process is quick, comfortable and typically completed during a routine cleaning and exam.
Who Benefits from Fluoride?
Fluoride treatment can be beneficial for both children and adults, particularly those with:
- A history of frequent cavities
- Exposed root surfaces
- Braces or other orthodontic appliances
- Dry mouth or reduced saliva production
- Poor dietary habits or limited access to fluoridated water
Our dentist will evaluate your oral health and recommend fluoride treatment if it supports your specific needs.
