While many people associate fluoride with children, adults can also greatly benefit from its protective properties.
One of the common issues adults face is reduced saliva flow, leading to a dry mouth. This condition increases the risk of tooth decay. Additionally, gum recession is prevalent among adults, exposing parts of the root surface, which are softer than enamel and more susceptible to cavities. However, fluoride can help protect these vulnerable areas, preventing decay, and reducing sensitivity that may accompany root exposure.
Adults with a significant number of dental restorations, such as crowns or bridges, can also benefit from fluoride treatments. These treatments not only protect the margins of the restorations but also help maintain their longevity.
By opting for fluoride treatment, our experienced dental team can provide you with an extra layer of protection against tooth decay and sensitivity. Our goal is to help you maintain excellent oral health and preserve your natural teeth for a lifetime.
