Fluoride Facts and FAQ’s
An important component to any dental prevention is the use of supplemental fluoride. I’m often asked about the saftey of fluoride and the history of its use. The following is a link to a great document that will answer the majority of one’s questions. http://www.ada.org/public/topics/fluoride/facts/fluoridation_facts.pdf If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to give our office a call.
Fluoridex- A Prescription for Healther Teeth
When I see a new member of my Patient Family, I spend a lot of time talking about not only my findings, but also the CAUSE of the problem. I’m often asked, “What can I do to keep this from happening again?” The story is longer than what I would put on a simple blog, but one tool that I use to give my patients a leg up is Fluoridex prescription tooth paste. I use this product in many situations ranging from rampant decay with dietary counseling to treating temperature sensitive teeth. Here is a link to the product website: http://www.discusdental.com/store/product/PV1611/
