Fluoride Application

About the service

Fluoride application is a simple, yet highly effective, preventive treatment that helps protect children’s teeth from decay. Fluoride, a naturally occurring mineral, strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to the acids that cause cavities. For growing children, who may not always maintain perfect brushing habits, fluoride treatments offer an extra layer of protection against tooth decay.

 
Why is Fluoride Important for Children?

Children’s teeth are more susceptible to cavities as they develop, especially when consuming sugary snacks and drinks. Fluoride helps by remineralizing the enamel, reversing early signs of tooth decay, and preventing new cavities from forming. This treatment is particularly important for children who are still developing good oral hygiene habits.

How the Treatment Works

At Vega Medical Center, we apply fluoride in the form of a gel, foam, or varnish that is quickly absorbed by the tooth enamel. The procedure is fast, safe, and painless, making it an ideal choice for children. Regular fluoride treatments, combined with good home care, can help ensure that your child’s teeth stay healthy and strong as they grow.
