Fluoride Treatment in San Ramon, CA
What Are Fluoride Treatments?
Generally an element in most standard dental care regimens, fluoride is a natural mineral found in some foods and liquids. As a bonus, it may also be painted onto the tooth enamel to produce many oral benefits. Fluoride may ward off decay by making the teeth less susceptible to tartar. Fluoride can additionally strengthen the tooth's structure to help reduce the first stages of dental decay. Towns that add fluoride to their water reserves generally see decreased cases of cavities among their residents. These advantages of fluoride are acknowledged by the ADA (American Dental Association) and other reputable associations. At San Ramon Family Dental, we are excited to provide professional fluoride treatments for patients of all ages. To learn more about how fluoride can enhance your oral wellness, schedule a visit with Dr. Rupam Khanna in San Ramon, CA today.
How Are Fluoride Treatments Performed?
San Ramon Family Dental provides various fluoride options and flavors to ensure that these treatments are comfortable for everyone. Fluoride services are commonly performed twice yearly, immediately after a professional cleaning and exam. Once your fluoride flavor is selected, our team will prep the application as a varnish, foam, gel, or liquid. The treatment will be kept on the enamel for under five minutes, based on the type, to allow the minerals enough time to absorb into your enamel. To receive optimal benefits from your fluoride treatment, you may need to wait at least 30 minutes before consuming food or drinking water.
