Three Things To Expect During Your Child’s Fluoride Treatment
Posted on January 13th, 2025
At Bayside Kids Dental in Odenton, we understand the importance of maintaining your child’s dental health from a young age. That is why we recommend fluoride treatment for your children as an essential aspect of their oral health journey. Fluoride treatment is a preventive dental procedure designed to strengthen your child’s tooth enamel and protect their teeth from decay. It involves the application of a concentrated fluoride solution to the teeth, which helps remineralize the enamel, making it more resistant to acids and bacteria that cause cavities.
Your child’s teeth will be thoroughly cleaned to remove any debris or plaque on the surface.
Application
A caring member of our team will apply the fluoride solution to your child’s teeth using a tray, brush, or varnish. This process typically takes just a few minutes.
Rinse and Evaluation
After the fluoride application, your child might be asked to avoid eating or drinking for a short period. Drs. Kenny and Sarrah Zamora will then evaluate the treatment’s effectiveness.
The best part? The fluoride treatment is quick and non-invasive, making it ideal for your children. No reason for you not to schedule an appointment to help protect your child’s smile and ensure a lifetime of healthy overall well-being.
