Tooth enamel is constantly breaking down and rebuilding due to acids from bacteria and food. Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. Research shows fluoride helps prevent cavities in two key ways:
While many public water systems in the U.S. are fluoridated, some bottled water, private wells, and home filtration systems remove fluoride, increasing the risk of cavities. If you're unsure whether you're getting enough fluoride, our professional fluoride treatments can help protect your teeth.
