Fluoride strengthens enamel and makes it more resistant to the acids produced by bacteria. In a professional fluoride treatment, a varnish or gel with a higher fluoride concentration than toothpaste is applied to the teeth.
It takes just a few minutes, doesn't hurt and suits both children and adults with a higher risk of decay or sensitive teeth.
Who it's for
- Children prone to decay
- Early white spots on the enamel
- Sensitive teeth and exposed tooth necks
- Patients with braces or a dry mouth
