Fluoride and Fissure
It is crucial to attend your scaling and polishing at least twice a year to maintain optimal oral health.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatments are typically applied after teeth cleanings, such as scaling. These treatments can also help remineralize minor imperfections in tooth enamel and reduce root hypersensitivity.
Fissure Sealants
Fissure sealants offer long-lasting protection for teeth. This process involves applying a clear plastic resin to the pits and surfaces of teeth, creating a barrier against decay and bacteria. Sealants help prevent plaque buildup, particularly in the back teeth, which are harder to clean. By safeguarding these areas, fissure sealants significantly reduce the risk of cavities.
