| Category | Fluoride Fillings |
Fluoride fillings are one of the most effective treatments available for preventing and limiting the occurrence and spread of tooth decay. It is a naturally occurring mineral found in foods and drinks, such as fish and tea, but it can also be synthesized. Fluoride filling ensures that the tooth is protected from acid attack thereby keeping the tooth at bay from tooth decay. It reduces the ability of plaque bacteria to produce acid and enhances the repair of enamel. In this way, the patient’s teeth are protected for an extended period if the fluoride fillings are done at the right point in time.
