– Topical fluoride strengthens the teeth making them more resistant to decay. Topical fluoride comes from using fluoride-containing dental products such as toothpaste, mouth rinses, and gels.
– Systemic fluoride strengthens teeth that have erupted as well as those that have not. This is ideal for children who are still developing their teeth. We get this type of fluoride form the foods we eat and drink. Ask your The Dentists at Town & Country Village dentist for fluoride recommendations based on age and diet.
Sometimes patients are not getting enough fluoride exposure to ensure their teeth are protected. The dentist or dental hygienist may recommend the use of home and/or professional fluoride treatments for the following reasons:
– Poor oral hygiene
– Sensitive tooth and root surfaces
– High sugar and carbohydrate diet
– Low exposure to fluoride
– History of decay
– Low saliva flow as a result of medication or medical conditions
Remember, good home oral hygiene is vital to maintaining your overall oral health. Visiting your The Dentists at Town & Country Village dentist at least twice a year will help keep your mouth and teeth in optimal health and may reduce the need for more advanced procedures.
