Protecting Your Teeth from the Very Start

Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride treatments are particularly beneficial for children. As adult teeth come in, fluoride helps combat tooth decay through a process called remineralization. Plaque and the acids from food can weaken tooth enamel by stripping away essential minerals. Fluoride treatment prevents and reverses this process, making tooth enamel stronger and more resistant to decay.

Dental Sealants

The biting surfaces of molars have grooves and fissures that can trap food particles and plaque, making them difficult to clean. When children get their new molars, dental sealants can protect these areas by preventing plaque build up and decay. Sealants provide a protective shield for vulnerable spots on teeth.

Why Opt for Sealants and Fluoride?

The Canadian Dental Association (CDA) supports the selective use of sealants for both primary and permanent teeth, based on an assessment and diagnosis by a dentist. Sealants are an important part of a comprehensive preventive program, which includes good nutrition, fluoride exposure, oral hygiene, and regular dental exams.

Reduce Tooth Sensitivity

The enamel protects the tooth’s inner layers, including dentin and pulp. If enamel becomes thin or worn, the dentin underneath is exposed, making teeth more sensitive to hot, cold, and sticky foods. Fluoride and sealants help maintain strong enamel, keeping the dentin protected from external elements.

Prevent and Reverse Decay

Worn enamel can lead to tooth decay, and exposed dentin can increase the risk of infection, which can be very painful and may require a root canal to save the tooth. Fluoride treatments help rebuild enamel, while sealants protect vulnerable areas from plaque build-up, preventing decay and strengthening teeth.

Save Money in the Long Run

Fluoride treatments and sealants are affordable preventive measures that can save you from costly treatments for more serious tooth problems in the future.

The Fluoridation and Sealant Process

Fluoride treatments are often part of your child’s routine cleaning and exam once a year. Sealants are applied as needed, typically after a new molar erupts or if a dentist spots a problem area on a tooth.

Fluoride Treatment

The fluoride we use is stronger than store bought products and is applied by professionals. Typically, fluoride is applied in the form of foam or gel in upper and lower trays, which only takes a few minutes at the end of your cleaning. After the treatment, we recommend avoiding food or drink for 30 minutes to allow the fluoride to fully absorb.

Dental Sealant Application

Applying dental sealants is easy and painless. There is no drilling or freezing involved. First, the tooth is cleaned and dried. A mild acidic gel is applied to roughen the surface, allowing the sealant to bond. The gel is rinsed off, and the sealant is applied to the grooves of the tooth. A special blue light is used to harden the sealant, and your bite will feel natural and comfortable afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend waiting 30 minutes after fluoride treatment before eating or drinking. This allows the fluoride to be absorbed into the enamel and work effectively.

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral found in some water sources. It has been used in dental care for generations due to its proven ability to prevent tooth decay. Fluoride treatments have been safely used worldwide to help protect teeth from decay.

Dental sealant is applied to the biting surfaces of molars to protect the grooves and fissures from decay. It acts as a shield, preventing plaque and food from getting trapped in these vulnerable areas.

Dental sealants can last up to 10 years with regular oral care and routine checkups. To maintain the sealant, make sure to brush and floss regularly and avoid acidic foods and drinks, especially before bed. If a sealant becomes chipped or worn, it can easily be repaired by your dentist or hygienist.

Ray Lawson Family Dental truly sets the standard for what a great patient experience should feel like. From the moment you walk in, the environment is cool, calm, and beautifully maintained, which already makes a big difference for anyone who might feel nervous about a dental visit. Manmohan and Binder are incredibly kind and helpful at the front desk. They are always welcoming, openly communicative on the phone, and genuinely take the time to listen and help find times that will work. You never feel rushed or dismissed when speaking with them. The entire team comes across as highly experienced and confident in what they do. Dr. Navreen and Dr. Gurm are especially wonderful with patients. They consistently check in during procedures to make sure patients are comfortable, ask if anything hurts, and offer reassurance along the way. Their explanations are clear, and they always make sure patients know what to expect next and what to watch for after treatment. It is also really heartwarming to see how patient and encouraging they are with kids, even offering breaks and putting on children’s songs on the TV to help them feel more relaxed. Harbinder and Varinder as the dental assistants also work so seamlessly with the dentists. They are always in sync, anticipating what is needed and keeping everything running smoothly, which makes the whole experience feel very efficient. The hygienist, Haseera, is also fantastic, very gentle, thorough, and kind, which makes cleanings feel comfortable and stress free. Overall, you can tell that everyone in this office genuinely care about the people they treat, and I would absolutely recommend this practice to anyone looking for a dental office that combines expertise with compassion.
