Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps to rebuild tooth enamel and also reverses the early signs of tooth decay. At Apollo Dental we provide fluoride treatment to that patient who lacks in getting enough fluoride. This can help to repair weaker tooth enamel by replenishing lost calcium and phosphate minerals that naturally present in saliva. This process can be best for people with a higher risk of tooth decay and erosion. The fluoride is applied with the help of a brush and held in the mouth for few minutes, after the treatment is done we recommend you not to eat or drink for 30 minutes approximately. Then allow your teeth to absorb the fluoride and help in the repair of the decay. After this process, you also need to maintain a good oral health routine as well.
