Tooth decay is caused by acid-producing bacteria called plaque, which will collect around your teeth and gums. Brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are helpful to get rid of a lot of this plaque, but fluoride treatments help prevent plaque and can repair teeth in the earliest stages of tooth decay. Below are some factors that increase your risk of tooth decay and increase the need for fluoride treatment: -Poor oral hygiene -Lack of regular professional dental care -Active orthodontic treatments -Exposed root surfaces of teeth -Poor diet Existing restorations
"Welcoming, professional and respectful of patients levels of anxiety/ and distress regarding dental procedures. The staff takes excellent care in the comfort of patients. Questions are answered respectfully. Warmth and concern are expressed approximately. This is a practice that builds relationships between professional staff and their patients- who are not just “passing through” but are part of the practice- which is not so large that one feels like a number- not an individual."
