Preventing Tooth Decay with Fluoride

Dentist

Adequate fluoride supplementation has proven to reduce the risk of tooth decay significantly. To find out how much fluoride your water supply has in Greenville, call your local water district. Dr. William Brown can help determine whether you and your family need fluoride supplementation.

Regular preventative dental visits for your children should begin by 18 months of age. Dr. Brown can help determine your child’s individual needs for additional fluoride supplementation. As a general rule, fluoride supplementation should start shortly after birth and continue until 12 years of age or when the second permanent molars erupt.

For more information on preventing tooth decay or determining your fluoride needs, call William W. Brown Jr, DDS in Greenville, SC, phone (888) 255-7196.

Don't Forget to Floss!

Clean between teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner. Decay-causing bacteria can hid between teeth where toothbrush bristles can't reach. Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line.

Visit Our Office Regularly!

Take good care of your smile. Remember to visit the dentist regularly for professional cleanings and oral exams.

Mouthwash Is Important, Too!

Brushing and flossing may not be enough. The ADA now recommends using an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce plaque and prevent gingivitis.
