Fluoride & Sealants

Tooth decay and cavities are things no one wants to deal with, no matter how old you are. Del Rio Dental Studio provides effective cavity prevention with fluoride treatment and sealants. Patients of any age can enjoy a reduced risk of tooth decay with these simple treatment options.

How Fluoride Prevents Tooth Decay

Fluoride is widely used to prevent tooth decay. You can find it in mouthwash, toothpaste, and our in-office fluoride treatment. This naturally occurring compound works by enabling remineralization in your teeth. As the earliest stages of tooth decay remove calcium and other minerals from the enamel, fluoride helps restore those lost minerals.

Fluoride Treatment Delivers Results

At Del Rio Dental Studio, we generally recommend fluoride treatment for all patients during a routine exam and teeth cleaning. This fast and comfortable treatment involves the application of fluoride varnish to your teeth. After this application, patients should not eat or drink for 30 minutes.

This simple treatment is over before you know it and can provide lasting protection against tooth decay. But while fluoride treatment offers excellent protection, you still need to keep up with good oral hygiene habits.

What Are Dental Sealants?

Dental sealants are among the more recent innovations in preventive dentistry. A thin layer of composite resin is applied to the chewing surface of the molars. This layer dramatically reduces the chance of cavities developing in one of the most at-risk areas.

Dental Sealants Provide Protection for the Whole Family

Dental sealants are among the most widely used dental treatments for children. Children are particularly prone to developing cavities in their molars — largely due to difficulty brushing properly and a penchant for sugary sweets. Dental sealants provide several years of protection, preventing decay and wear to the chewing surface.

However, dental sealants aren’t just for kids; patients of any age can enjoy excellent protection from sealants.
