Silver Diamine Fluoride in Chandler, AZ

Are you looking for a safe, painless and clinically proven method to help repair cavities before they get worse? Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is an excellent solution that Bellissimo Dentistry offers in Chandler, Arizona. 

It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria which attacks and damages teeth. Being fluoride-based, it helps to keep teeth healthy and strong while also working as an antimicrobial agent, reducing the risk of cavities. SDF has been used medically for over 80 years and boasts an incredibly high success rate in treating dental caries. As such, patients should consider discussing Silver Diamine Fluoride with their dentist in Chandler to ensure they get the most comprehensive treatment available.

How does Silver Diamine Fluoride protect my teeth?

For those looking to prevent dental decay and maintain healthy teeth, Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is a powerful tool. Unlike other forms of fluoride, SDF works in two distinct ways: first, it actively fights the bacteria that produce cavities; and second, it serves as a self-contained protective layer to keep those cavity-causing bacteria away. And because SDF contains antibacterial silver particles, it can ward off even more types of bacteria than just traditional fluoride treatments. Additionally, SDF is incredibly convenient - you can get all the decay-preventing benefits of a fluoride treatment without enduring the taste or need for endless rinsing and swishing that comes with other treatments. Overall, Silver Diamine Fluoride is an excellent way to care for your teeth and protect them from potentially debilitating cavities.

At What Age Should I Receive Fluoride Treatments?

When it comes to choosing the right age for receiving fluoridated treatments, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Most dentists recommend starting fluoride treatments at a young age, around when your child’s permanent teeth start coming in. This timeline should not be restricted to only children though! Adults can benefit from fluoride treatments just as much. There are various forms of treatment available, including concentrated fluoride toothpastes and mouth rinses, as well as professionally applied varnishes and gels. Additionally, many municipal water supplies contain fluoride, so checking with your local water authority is also a great way to supplement your child’s oral care routine. All in all, protecting our teeth from cavities is important at any point in life and certain types of fluoride treatments can create a lasting impact for both adults and children alike.
