What is Fluoride Treatment?
Fluoride therapy is a quick and painless procedure that can be completed in a few minutes. Our pediatric dentists in Mooresville, NC, Dr. Tucker, Dr. Zimmer, Dr. Kalaskey, and Dr. Parikh, typically recommend this treatment for children more susceptible to tooth decay. This includes children with poor oral hygiene habits, a diet high in simple sugar, orthodontic treatment that raises their risk for tooth decay, or a history of cavities.
Our kid-friendly team will educate your child on the benefits of fluoride, making it a positive experience while guiding them through their treatment process. After treatment, we may ask your child to refrain from eating or drinking for 30 minutes to allow the full penetration of the fluoride into their enamel. In some cases, we may also prescribe fluoride supplements in tablet or liquid form. However, regular treatments in combination with a balanced diet and proper oral hygiene are required to reduce your child’s risk of cavities and promote their dental health.
