Tooth decay is caused by acid-producing bacteria called plaque, which will collect around your teeth and gums. Brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are helpful to get rid of a lot of this plaque, but fluoride treatments help prevent plaque and can repair teeth in the earliest stages of tooth decay. Below are some factors that increase your risk of tooth decay and increase the need for fluoride treatment: -Poor oral hygiene -Lack of regular professional dental care -Active orthodontic treatments -Exposed root surfaces of teeth -Poor diet Existing restorations
"From my 1st call I knew this was the place for me. The coordinators found me an appointment that work for my schedule and explained everything I needed to know. The dental assistant walked me thru everything she was gonna do and what to expect once the doctor came in. The doctor got me to an endodontist to save my tooth. I look forward to seeing how Dr. Sartor can improve my smile. Thanks again Lugoff Smiles"
