Fluoride Treatments for Stronger Teeth
Fluoride is a natural way to protect your teeth from decay and sensitivity. At AmeriDental, we offer in-office fluoride applications for children and adults in North Brunswick and Hillsborough, NJ.
What Is Fluoride and How Does It Work?
Fluoride is a mineral that helps rebuild enamel, reverse early signs of tooth decay, and make teeth more resistant to acid from plaque and bacteria. It’s especially effective when applied directly during your dental visit.
Benefits of Fluoride Treatments:
- Strengthens tooth enamel
- Prevents tooth decay and cavities
- Reduces sensitivity in exposed root areas
- Safe for both children and adults
- Quick, painless, and affordable
Who Needs Fluoride Treatment?
While fluoride is beneficial for everyone, it’s especially recommended for patients who:
- Have a history of cavities or tooth decay
- Experience frequent sensitivity
- Wear braces or dental appliances
- Have exposed root surfaces
- Struggle with oral hygiene or dry mouth
How Is Fluoride Applied?
At AmeriDental, your fluoride treatment is fast and comfortable. After your cleaning, we apply fluoride as a varnish, gel, or foam using a soft brush or tray. It only takes a few minutes and helps protect your teeth long after your visit.
Post-Treatment Tips:
- Don’t eat or drink for 30 minutes afterward
- Avoid brushing or flossing for 4–6 hours (if varnish applied)
- Follow your dentist’s recommendations for home fluoride products
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Are fluoride treatments safe?
A: Yes! Professional fluoride use is carefully monitored and safe for patients of all ages.
Q: How often should I get fluoride treatments?
A: Most patients benefit from treatments every 6 months. Those with higher cavity risk may need it more often.
