Fluoride Varnish

Fluoride treatments have been an essential part of oral health care for quite a while because it has many benefits for our teeth. Fluoride is a natural mineral that builds strong teeth and prevents cavities.

​

Having a fluoride varnish will not only support healthy tooth enamel but it will fight off bacteria that harm your teeth and gums.

​

This treatment will be especially helpful if you are prone to developing dental cavities.

What to expect during a fluoride varnish treatment

​

The fluoride treatment will either be applied with a swab, brush, tray, or mouthwash, and it will only take a few minutes. These treatments contain much more fluoride than is in your toothpaste at home.

​

Your oral hygienist will ask you to avoid eating or drinking for about 30 minutes after the treatment has been applied so that it can be fully absorbed.
