Fluoride and dental health:

Fluoride is a mineral that can help to protect teeth from decay, especially in children. Fluoride is found in toothpastes, mouthwashes and even in the public water supply. Sometimes, teeth need extra protection from decay. If this happens, the dentist can apply a highly concentrated fluoride varnish to the surface of the tooth. This is a quick and easy treatment that does not require the use of anaesthetic.
