Fluoride is a naturally occurring element that has some interesting and powerful effects on teeth. Applying fluoride to teeth reduces gum disease and cavities by preventing bacteria from sticking to teeth. In addition, it may relieve tooth sensitivity, and it reduces tooth staining. Fluoride treatment is NOT just for children. We recommend fluoride treatment for all of our patients.
