How important is fluoride to the health of my childs teeth?
The addition of fluoride to your child’s diet largely depends on his/her home care, how regular his/her dental recare appointments are and what his/her diet is like. Some of the food and drinks children consume contain fluoride and therefore if a child does not appear to be prone to cavities, a fluoride application at his/her dental office once every six months is all that is required.
