fluoride

fluoride makes the teeth resistant against acid attack!

Fluoride is an essential trace-element in our system and this hardens the dental enamel. The amount of fluoride that we acquire from our daily diet is mostly insufficient.

An additional fluoride application makes the teeth resistant to acid attack and bacteria. We advise the parents what form of fluoride would best suit their child.

 


the following methods can be administered for additional fluoride supply.
local application:

  • Fluoride-containing tooth paste or mouth rinse.
  • Fluoride varnish or fluoride gel
  • Dissolvable fluoride tablet


systemic application:

  • Nourishment (cooking salt with fluoride)
  • Fluoride tablet
