What Is a Fluoride Treatment?
A fluoride treatment involves applying a concentrated form of fluoride to the teeth to:
- Strengthen enamel
- Remineralize early decay
- Reduce tooth sensitivity
- Prevent cavity formation
At Dental Arts, we apply fluoride varnish during your cleaning appointment giving your smile long-lasting defense against plaque and sugar.
Types of Fluoride We Use
We offer:
- Fluoride Varnish: A sticky coating that stays on teeth longer than traditional rinses or gels, providing extended protection.
Our standard is 5% Sodium Fluoride varnish, a high-concentration, dental-grade product that’s safe and effective for both children and adults.
How Fluoride Is Applied
We use a brush-on delivery method, applying the varnish directly to clean, dry tooth surfaces. The process is quick, painless, and requires no trays or rinses.
Tooth Filling Cost in Toronto
At Dental Arts, fluoride treatment is included with your cleaning no surprise fees. If you come in for a stand-alone application, we’ll let you know the cost up front (but most patients receive it during hygiene visits at no extra charge).
How Long Does It Take?
Just under 5 minutes. After your cleaning, our hygienist dries your teeth, brushes on the fluoride varnish, and gives you easy post-care instructions. You’ll be back to your day right away!
What’s Included in a Fluoride Appointment?
Even though the process is quick, we take care to include:
- Tooth drying and prep
- Professional application of fluoride varnish
- Post-treatment guidance: Wait at least 30 minutes before drinking and a few hours before brushing.
- Oral hygiene tips to keep your smile strong between visits.
Who Needs Fluoride?
While fluoride treatments are often associated with kids, adults with a high risk of cavities benefit just as much especially those with:
- Frequent snacking or sugar exposure
- Dry mouth (xerostomia)
- Receding gums
- History of dental restorations
We tailor fluoride treatment to your needs and recommend it every 3–6 months, or more often if you’re at higher risk.
