Fluoride Treatments
Overview

The enamel that protects your teeth is one of the strongest substances known in nature and the toughest in your body. But it is also under constant attack from the ingredients in many of your favorite foods, snacks, and drinks. Our dentist and team offer fluoride treatments in Neenah, Wisconsin, to keep your enamel healthy. If you are concerned about the strength of your smile, call Fox Valley Dental at 920-725-1327 for an appointment with Dr. Joseph Olsen.

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral and can be found in many foods as well as many local water supplies. You receive a certain amount of fluoride from your diet and from using fluoridated toothpaste when brushing your teeth, but sometimes, additional care is needed to help strengthen and protect your teeth. If this is the case for you, our dentist can provide you with a professional fluoride treatment to help protect your teeth from cavities.

As you go about your day, the foods and drinks you consume cause bacteria, sugars and acids to attack and demineralize the enamel of your teeth, gradually wearing your teeth down and eventually leading to the development of cavities. Fluoride works by remineralizing your tooth enamel so that it can more effectively resist decay-causing factors. Fluoride is also important for children, as it helps strengthen teeth as they develop so that they remain strong and healthy in adulthood.
