In this post, the team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capronparkdental.com\/\">Capron Park Dental<\/a>, your premier dentist in Attleboro, explains who their preventive care options can benefit you.<\/p>\n<h2><!--more-->How Can Fluoride Treatments Improve My Smile?<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Andrew Luccio and Dr. William Herr know that adults, as well as children can be helped with the use of topical fluoride treatments. This naturally occurring mineral can be applied to your teeth after a professional cleaning in the form of a fluoride paste, and is left on the teeth for a short amount of time, giving it the ability to remineralize your enamel. We can also help prevent cavities and strengthen the outer layer of your teeth by using prescription-strength fluoridated or antibacterial mouthrinses.<\/p>\n<p>You might be a good candidate for fluoride treatments if the situations in the list below sound familiar to you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You are a child or adolescent.<\/li>\n<li>You have sub-par oral hygiene<\/li>\n<li>You have cavities presently.<\/li>\n<li>You have high levels of oral bacteria in your mouth.<\/li>\n<li>Your tooth roots are exposed.<\/li>\n<li>You suffer from dry mouth or lack of saliva.<\/li>\n<li>You have existing fillings.<\/li>\n<li>You have defects of the tooth enamel.<\/li>\n<li>You battle with an eating disorder.<\/li>\n<li>You have or had a drug or alcohol problem.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019re currently undergoing radiation therapy for your head or neck.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Can Dental Sealants Improve My Smile?<\/h2>\n<p>Dental sealants are plastic coatings that are placed over the chewing surface of the back molars to give an extra layer of protection in preventing tooth decay and cavities. Sealants are basically painted on and take a few short moments to dry. You\u2019ll be able to resume your daily activities \u2013 speaking, eating, brushing, and flossing \u2013 like normal, but will have an increased resistance to tooth problems because of this quick, safe procedure. You\u2019re a good candidate for sealants if you meet the following conditions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You are a child who is learning to brush correctly.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019re an adult with no tooth decay, cavities, or fillings in your molars.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Since an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure when it comes to your smile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capronparkdental.com\/request-an-appointment.html\">schedule your appointment<\/a> to get the preventive care you need with Capron Park Dental!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know that the majority of Americans think your smile is your most important physical feature?
