Fluoride

With all that we eat and drink on a daily basis, it’s only natural for harmful bacteria and decay to creep their way into the dark, far remote corners of your mouth. From children to seniors, everyone can benefit from the extra protection that fluoride can give you. It’s like a coat of armor for your enamel! Fluoride has been proven to naturally fight decay and can protect you from a number of common dental ailments. Fluoride has many benefits.

Prevents tooth decay
Strengthens tooth enamel
Fights acid
Targets pits and fissures

It is a natural mineral found in tea that is brewed, as well as many everyday foods, like apples, skim milk, and cooked spinach and kale. Depending on where you live, you may also have natural fluoride in your local water. Not all neighborhoods have access to a fluoride-infused water supply, so that’s where we can supply you with this benefit.

Fluoride treatments can provide long-lasting protection for your teeth in a quick, non-invasive procedure that can be done right here in the comfort of the office. With a caring hand, Bacsa Family Dental and Implant Center is entrusted with the dental care of Indiana’s growing families, no matter their age.

Frequently Asked Questions

I am an adult. Why do I need fluoride?

Fluoride is not just for kids. Through the aging process, adult teeth need all the additional defense that they can get. Many medications and poor diets can weaken our enamel over time. Fluoride can help provide extra resistance to cavities and provide strength with professional applications.

My insurance only covers it up to the age of 18. I don’t want to pay for it.

Unfortunately, insurances rarely cover 100% of any procedure. At Bacsa Family Dental and Implant Center we do not allow insurance to dictate what is best for the needs of patients. The skilled Hygiene team will discuss the benefits and options of fluoride with you at your appointment. We believe in trying to take every ounce of prevention to save you money in the long run in costly procedures. Fluoride is actually a low-cost way to keep your teeth as healthy and strong as possible.
