What is fluoridation of children’s teeth?

Deficiency of fluoride and calcium is the main cause of weak enamel and low tooth resistance to bacteria. The reasons for demineralization are very different – from genetic characteristics to a lack of minerals in a child’s diet. Consequences – weak enamel, sensitive teeth reaction to high / low temperatures, vulnerability to caries.

Deep fluoridation of teeth for children is, in fact, remineralization, that is, replenishment of the fluoride deficiency. The result of the procedure is to strengthen the enamel and increase its resistance to carious infection. It is prescribed if the first signs of caries appear on the baby’s or permanent teeth, or when the baby’s teeth begin to react to hot / cold. In addition, the doctor performs fluoridation before installing the bracket system and after removing it to protect the tooth enamel. As a preventive measure, children are recommended to undergo fluoridation procedure 2 times a year.

How is the procedure for fluoridation of teeth performed at Amel Dental Clinic

The pediatric dentist uses several remineralization techniques.

The choice of a treatment program depends on the condition and individual characteristics of the little patient’s teeth:

• the simplest and fastest procedure is the application of a material containing fluoride (varnish, gel) with a brush to the surface of the teeth;
• treatment using mouth guards – after application, the product is fixed on the enamel (the session for all teeth lasts about 5 minutes, is carried out in one stage);
• deep fluoridation of teeth for children is the most effective method with a long lasting effect (fluoride molecules penetrate into the tooth tissues and make the enamel invulnerable to bacteria).

If a child has foci of caries on his teeth, then the doctor first conducts treatment, and only then prescribes remineralization.

Take your baby for a consultation with a pediatric dentist at Amel Dental Clinic. The doctor will conduct an examination, modern diagnostics, and prescribe the most appropriate method for prophylaxis against caries for the child.
