At what age can kids begin receiving fluoride treatments?
Children can begin receiving fluoride treatments as soon as their first teeth erupt, usually around age one. Family dentists often recommend professional fluoride applications during routine dental visits, especially for children at higher risk of cavities. Early fluoride exposure helps strengthen developing enamel and provides added protection during the years when children are learning proper brushing and oral hygiene habits.
Are fluoride treatments safe?
Fluoride treatments are safe when applied by dental professionals. The amount of fluoride used in these treatments is carefully controlled and tailored to the patient’s age and risk for cavities. Professional fluoride applications have been widely studied and are supported by major dental organizations. When used appropriately, fluoride helps protect teeth without causing harm to overall health.
What is the difference between fluoride treatments and fluoride toothpaste?
Fluoride treatments contain a higher concentration of fluoride than over-the-counter toothpaste and are applied directly to the teeth by a dental professional. They provide a stronger, longer-lasting protective effect. Fluoride toothpaste is designed for daily use and helps maintain enamel strength between visits, while professional treatments offer an extra layer of protection against decay.
