ASK YOU DENTIST ABOUT FLUORIDE TREATMENT FOR YOU CHILD


During a fluoride application, a concentrated fluoride solution is “painted” on the teeth in the form of a gel or varnish. This quick and painless procedure can be done during your child’s regular dental check-ups and cleanings, to provide an extra layer of defense against tooth decay.

Fluoride applications are particularly beneficial for children who are at high risk of developing dental caries, as the fluoride helps to remineralize tooth enamel and halt the progress of early decay. It’s a proactive measure that supports the long-term health of your child’s teeth by strengthening enamel against the acids produced by bacteria in the mouth.

WASTING DISEASES

WASTING DISEASES


Attrition

Attrition refers to the natural wear and tear of teeth caused by grinding or clenching over time. This condition typically affects the biting surfaces of teeth and is commonly seen in individuals with bruxism.

Erosion

Erosion occurs due to the chemical breakdown of enamel caused by acidic foods, beverages, or gastric reflux. Unlike attrition, this type of damage is not related to mechanical forces like chewing.

Abrasion

Abrasion is the result of mechanical wear on teeth, often caused by aggressive brushing or using a hard-bristled toothbrush. It usually affects the tooth at the gumline, leading to sensitivity and enamel loss.

Abfraction

Abfraction is the loss of tooth structure at the cervical areas due to excessive stress or pressure on the teeth. This stress creates small fractures, resulting in wedge-shaped defects near the gumline.
