Fluoride Treatment

Home » Dental Library » General Dentistry » Fluoride Treatment

Pensacola, FL Endodontist

Your dentist may offer fluoride treatment to prevent tooth decay for patients. Fluoride helps by making the tooth more resistant to the buildup of plaque and sugars. It can also speed re-mineralization as well as disrupt acid erosion in teeth.

Fluoride can be applied to the teeth as a gel, foam or varnish. According to the ADA, fluoride intake is often recommended for infants and children between the ages of 6 months and 16 years. During this time, primary and permanent teeth are developing. Fluoride becomes incorporated into the development of permanent teeth, making it difficult for acids to demineralize the teeth.

Adults can benefit from fluoride as well to fight tooth decay and strengthen teeth. People with the following oral health conditions are more susceptible to decay and may especially benefit from fluoride treatment:

▪ Dry mouth
▪ Gum disease
▪ History of frequent cavities
▪ Presence of crowns and/or bridges
▪ Undergoing orthodontic treatment

In addition to receiving fluoride treatment at your dental office, it can be directly applied to the teeth through fluoridated toothpastes and mouth rinses. Mouth rinses containing fluoride in lower strengths are available over-the-counter. However, stronger mouth rinses can be provided by a doctor’s prescription. Fluoride can also be found in public water supplies.

Jesse L.
Had a root canal on a problem tooth, referred through VA community care. Didn't feel a thing, doc did a fantastic job. Friendly staff.
Kim D.
Dr Todd and his team did a great job on my root canal!
They were considerate and made sure I was comfortable and pain free throughout the process.
Much better procedure for root canals than what I have had in the past.
Leesa Y.
Hands down one of the best dental experiences that I have ever had. Dr Webb and his assistant were extremely thorough and had the most amazing bedside manners. I had to have two root canal’s that were not covered under my insurance, I would pay out of pocket again just to be able to go there if I had to again. Their technology was also top notch. I was very impressed.
RW M
Dr. Todd and his exceptional team truly deserve a standing ovation! From the warm welcome at the front office to the outstanding care provided by the doctor himself, my experience was nothing short of phenomenal. I was completely at ease throughout my visit, thanks to their gentle approach and pain-free procedures. Dr. Todd's expertise shines through in his meticulous attention to detail and dedication to delivering remarkable results. He is, without a doubt, one of the best in his field.
N L.
Professional, great bedside manor, excellent Endodonic knowledge! Friendly staff! Thank you Dr Beam!
-Also My wife saw Dr Todd today He is another outstanding Orthodontist. He was given a really difficult root canal x 2, the teeth were extremely difficult to deaden but he persevered & made the long procedure easy for my wife. He is knowledgeable, professional and a kind Gentleman! His staff are all outstanding & friendly! This is North Florida's Best, no need to look further!
David W.
Excellent customer service. Dr Webb clearly explained the procedure and what to expect during and after everything was completed. Elite’s dental assistants and administrative support staff are very professional and pleasant. I highly recommend Elite Endodontics services.
BOB R.
Had a Root Canal with Dr Josh Todd, he is very good at what he does. He uses the “Gentle Wave”
Method which is more efficient and
a painless method of cleaning out
All the bad material within the tooth. He and staff were great!
Rebecca L.
Aleah & Dr. Webb treated me wonderfully from my consult to the procedure being completed. They understood my anxiety, were patient, made me laugh, and earned my trust. If I need their assistance in the future, I will return and refer others to them.
Andrew C.
Dr Todd has one of the best "bedside manners" of any dentist/endodontist I've encountered. There was virtually no wait time on both visits. And the procedures/tools used are state-of-the-art. Most employees were friendly and efficient. However, the woman at the front desk with an earing through her nostril was a turnoff.
Andy H.
Dr Todd and his entire staff are excellent. Completely professional and friendly as well. I recommend them most highly to any potential patients.

Benefits of Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride treatment can help prevent tooth decay by strengthening the enamel of your teeth, making it more resistant to acids that can cause cavities. This can be especially beneficial for individuals who are more prone to decay due to certain oral health conditions or treatments like orthodontic work.

By incorporating fluoride into your oral care routine, whether through treatments at the dentist or with fluoridated toothpaste and mouth rinses, you can help protect your teeth and maintain a healthy smile for years to come. Consult with your dentist to see if fluoride treatment is right for you.

What to Expect During Fluoride Treatment

During a fluoride treatment at the dentist, a gel, foam, or varnish containing fluoride will be applied to your teeth. This process is quick and painless, with the fluoride working to strengthen the enamel and protect against decay. Your dentist may also recommend at-home fluoride products to continue the benefits of the treatment between visits.

If you have any concerns or questions about fluoride treatment, don't hesitate to ask your dentist. They can provide you with all the information you need to feel comfortable and confident in taking care of your oral health through fluoride treatments.
