Who benefits from fluoride treatments?
Children, especially those with developing teeth, often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen their teeth and prevent cavities.
However, adults can benefit, too! The ADA recommends patients over 18 and adults with root caries should receive 2.26% fluoride varnish every 6 months. Fluoride helps remineralization and prevents caries.
The Process
Getting a fluoride treatment is a pain-free process. Your dental hygienist “paints” the varnish right on your teeth after your cleaning. You can even choose your flavor!
