Prevent tooth decay with fluoride.
Fluoride is often found in dental products and public water sources, but it is concerning that many people do not get enough fluoride. Those at risk for tooth decay can especially benefit from more fluoride. By preventing tooth decay, fluoride helps decrease cavities and the need for fillings and root canals. These treatments are very helpful for both kids and adults.
