Fluoride Treatments to Prevent Cavities

Tooth decay is caused by acid-producing bacteria called plaque, which will collect around your teeth and gums.

Brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are helpful to get rid of a lot of this plaque, but fluoride treatments help prevent plaque and can repair teeth in the earliest stages of tooth decay.

Below are some factors that increase your risk of tooth decay and increase the need for fluoride treatment:

Poor oral hygiene
Lack of regular professional dental care
Active orthodontic treatments
Exposed root surfaces of teeth
Poor diet
Existing restorations
