Fluoride Varnish
Preventing, slowing down, or stopping tooth decay is a dream come true for parents who want their children to grow up with strong, healthy teeth. This is made possible with the Fluoride varnish dental treatment method.
What Are Fluoride Varnish Treatments?
Fluoride varnish treatments help keep your child’s teeth cavity-free between visits to the dentist. This is possible because of fluoride, a mineral that naturally strengths tooth enamel (the white outer portion of the teeth). Depending on your child’s age, the fluoride may be brushed onto your child’s teeth or put into a foam tray and allowed to sit on their teeth. For younger children, a fluoride varnish is brushed onto the teeth.
Fluoride varnish hardens when it comes in contact with saliva, forming a hard film that is brushed off later that evening.
