Fluoride Treatment for Patients in the Wilmington, NC, Community
If you’re looking for a way to strengthen your teeth and prevent cavities, you should consider fluoride treatment from the expert dental team at Stephanie G. Hackney DDS PA. Fluoride is a mineral that can help prevent cavities by repairing damaged tooth enamel when the damage is still in its very early stages. Patients in the Wilmington, North Carolina, area can benefit from this great preventive option by visiting our office.
Fluoride Treatment: How Does it Work?
When tooth decay is still at the microscopic stages, fluoride can help reverse the damage by strengthening tooth enamel by replenishing lost phosphate and calcium. Restoring these minerals makes your teeth more resistant to future decay.
Our Treatments
Our fluoride treatments applied in our dental office are a good option if you have a higher risk for tooth decay or erosion. You may benefit from fluoride treatments if you have:
- Chronic dry mouth
- Existing crowns
- Poor oral health
- Weak enamel
The fluoride paste we use is a much higher concentration than what you will find in your toothpaste or mouth rinse, and our professional supervision ensures that this higher level of fluoride won’t cause any undue side effects.
