What Is Teeth Fluoridation?
Teeth Fluoridation is a professional treatment where a high-concentration fluoride product – such as a varnish, gel, or foam – is applied directly to the teeth. This helps strengthen enamel, prevent cavities, and remineralize early signs of tooth decay more effectively than everyday fluoride products. It is quick, painless, and typically recommended during routine dental visits, especially for children, people with high cavity risk, or those with weakened enamel.
How It Works
Teeth Fluoridation begins as the dentist at our affiliated clinic uses tools like a brush, tray, or swab to apply a fluoride varnish, gel, or foam to clean, dry teeth. The fluoride is left on for a few minutes and then forms a protective layer that absorbs into the enamel. Patients are advised to avoid eating or drinking for a short time afterward to allow the fluoride to fully absorb.
Teeth Fluoridation Procedure
1. Consultation and assessment will be conducted.
2. Teeth will be cleaned and dried.
3. A fluoride varnish, gel, or foam will be selected.
4. The fluoride product will be applied to the teeth and remain for a few minutes.
5. Post-care instructions will be provided by the dentist.

FAQ
Q1: How often should I get Teeth Fluoridation?
A1: Most patients benefit from fluoride treatment every 3 to 6 months, depending on their cavity risk and enamel condition. The dentist at our affiliated clinic will recommend the best frequency for you.
Q2: Can Teeth Fluoridation reverse tooth decay?
A2: Fluoride can remineralize early-stage decay (white spots) and stop it from progressing. However, it cannot reverse or repair advanced cavities that require fillings.
Q3: How long after Teeth Fluoridation can I eat or drink?
A3: You should wait at least 30 minutes to 1 hour before eating or drinking to allow the fluoride to fully absorb into your enamel.
Q4: Does Teeth Fluoridation whiten teeth?
A4: No, Teeth Fluoridation does not whiten teeth. It protects against decay and strengthens enamel, but it does not change tooth colour like whitening treatments do.
Q5: What is the difference between fluoride varnish and fluoride gel?
A5: Fluoride varnish is painted onto the teeth and sets quickly, making it ideal for children and sensitive patients. Fluoride gel is applied using a tray and requires a few minutes to sit on the teeth. Both are effective but differ in application method and contact time.
