Dental Fluorosis Treatments In Tamworth

Fluoride is a natural mineral which is found in many things, such as toothpaste, water, fish and teas. However the amount of fluoride that is in your water depends on where you live, as some water companies add more to their water than others. They do this because fluoride helps to reduce the risk of tooth decay.

Dental Fluorosis takes place when the enamel, the protective part of your teeth, is exposed to high doses of fluoride during the tooth development process. This can result in uneven or discoloured teeth, that looks badly stained.

It is quite hard to prevent dental fluorosis from happening, but not impossible. The reason dental fluorosis occurs is because, children are exposed to very high levels of fluoride, in their everyday lives. Parents will just need to monitor the amount of fluoride their children are getting, by reading labels very carefully on toothpaste packaging and on food and drinks packaging.
