How Fluoride Helps

  • Rebuilds Weak Enamel: Drives minerals back into early demineralized areas.
  • Blocks Acid Attack: Makes enamel more resistant to acids from foods and bacteria.
  • Protects Around Restorations & Orthodontics: Shields hard-to-clean spots and margins.
  • Eases Sensitivity: Seals exposed dentin tubules to reduce zingers.

Who Benefits Most

  • Kids & teens with newly erupted molars
  • Adults with frequent snacking/sugary drinks
  • Patients with dry mouth (medications, CPAP, Sjögren’s)
  • Orthodontic patients with brackets or aligners
  • High-risk patients with recent cavities or multiple restorations
  • Sensitive teeth from gum recession or whitening
