Fluoride application in brief

Fluoride is a mineral that makes tooth enamel more resistant. In a professional fluoride application, a fluoride varnish or gel is applied to the tooth surfaces. It is quick, painless and needs no anaesthetic.

Fluoride on its own does not prevent decay; together with regular brushing, limiting sugar and check-ups, it helps lower the risk. The dentist decides whether it is needed and how often, based on the child’s decay risk.

After the teeth are cleaned, fluoride varnish is applied. Fluoride strengthens the enamel and increases resistance to decay.

How often should it be done?

It depends on the risk of decay. At check-ups, the dentist will tell you whether it needs repeating.
