Fluoride is an effective and safe way to strengthen your tooth enamel and increase its ability to withstand everyday wear. At Lacamas Dental & Cosmetic Center in Vancouver, WA, we offer fluoride treatments to support your preventive dental care. Fluoride treatments are quick and simple, yet they help protect your teeth against decay, bacteria, and acids, especially between regular cleanings. 

Fluoride treatments are quick, painless, and usually done during a routine visit. However, it is most beneficial for children who still have developing teeth, as well as adults who can easily form cavities, sensitive teeth, or worn enamel. Since it strengthens the enamel of the teeth, fluoride helps protect your teeth between visits and supports long-term oral health.

How Fluoride Helps Prevent Tooth Decay

Fluoride strengthens your enamel and supports your teeth’s early repair process, which helps keep cavities from forming. It promotes natural tooth remineralization while slowing the growth of harmful bacteria inside the mouth.

Benefits of preventive fluoride care include:

  • Strengthening weakened or thinning enamel
  • Preventing cavities and tooth decay
  • Assisting in protecting teeth from acid erosion
  • Helping with overall tooth decay prevention

Who Can Benefit From Fluoride Treatment? 

Fluoride can be helpful at any age, not just for children. Adults who deal with frequent cavities, dry mouth, or ongoing dental concerns often benefit from the extra protection it provides. During your visit, our team will assess your oral health and recommend fluoride only if it is truly necessary for your situation.
