Fluoride Treatments

Our dental office offers treatment options for both adults and children.
If there is a history of tooth decay or Dr Ideus sees tooth decay during
the initial patient exam, a fluoride treatment plan may be recommended
beyond brushing at home.

Topical Fluoride

Topical fluoride strengthens erupted teeth by infusing the mineral into
the tooth enamel, strengthening the tooth. We will polish and dry your
teeth before treatment.
Topical fluoride treatments can be made of gel or foam and come in a
variety of flavors.

Systemic Fluoride

Systemic fluoride treatments are for teeth that have erupted and for
those teeth still under the gums. We offer tablets and drops for this
type of fluoride treatment. The last word on fluoride is it helps with
protecting the teeth by seeping into the enamel and drawing the
calcium and phosphate that’s naturally present in the saliva.
The minerals in fluoride boost the teeth’s natural healing process
and makes teeth more resistant to future decay.

Preventive Care

Avoid gum disease, cavities and enamel wear Ideus Family Dental Care offers gentle and comprehensive preventive treatments that include a dental exam, x-rays (if needed), floride treatment, sealants and teeth cleaning.
