Should I Use Fluoride Products?

  • Should I Use Fluoride Products?

When it comes to maintaining good health, one of the best things you can do is to check the ingredients of the products you use. Is your facial cleanser using harsh chemicals or gentle Botanicals? Does your shampoo include sulfates or natural ingredients?

In regards to your oral health, the main ingredient that you may have heard about is fluoride — and you may be wondering if you should use products that contain this ingredient. Simply put, the answer is yes. Here’s why.

Using Flouride to Improve Oral Health

What is Flouride?

Fluoride is a mineral that is found in the planet’s crust and is present all throughout nature. While some people are under the impression that this ingredient is synthetic we made, that’s simply not the case.

What Does Flouride Do?

Using products or drinking water that contains fluoride can help strengthen your teeth reduce tooth decay, allowing for better overall oral health. It does this by protecting your teeth against bacteria that feed on carbohydrates and sugars left by the foods you eat.

Fluoride also can help replenish calcium that makes your teeth harder and more resilient against decay.

What Products Contain Flouride?

If you’re looking to make sure that this ingredient is present in your oral care routine, you have plenty of ways to incorporate it. Fluoride is available in toothpaste, oral rinses, supplements, and even water.

You can also ask your dentist about fluoride treatments if you believe that you or your child are not getting enough fluoride to keep their teeth safe.

Loved my experience with Dr. Speaks and their team. All the the staff were super friendly and made me feel like they actually cared when I would go in. Had braces and got them off sooner than I expected and very happy with my results!! Highly recommend Speaks Orthodontics!

Mijn dochter heeft hier haar beugel gekregen. Wat een geweldige orthodontist en team! Iedereen is zo professioneel en vriendelijk. M’n dochter ging altijd met heel veel zin naar de orthodontist. Ze stellen je helemaal gerust en vertellen je precies wat ze gaan doen.
Ook een groot compliment voor de Front Office. Erg professioneel en vriendelijk en zo behulpzaam en geïnteresseerd.
Dank allemaal voor de fijne samenwerking en het fantastische resultaat!
Response from the owner:Hartelijk dank voor uw positieve feedback, Wendy! Het is geweldig om te horen dat uw dochter zo'n goede ervaring heeft gehad met ons team. We waarderen uw complimenten en zijn blij dat wij hebben bijgedragen aan een geweldige samenwerking en resultaat.

Amazing doctor and team! Great overall experience! Dr Speaks led my 2 year plus Invisalign treatment (following a jaw surgery and stints in braces and aligners with east coast orthos) and gave me the best result possible! Affordable, flexible scheduling, and a friendly environment! Shout out to Elliot at the front desk!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review, Noah! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Dr. Speaks and our team. Your satisfaction means a lot to us, and we appreciate your shout out to Elliot as well. We're here to provide the best care and support for our patients!😁
