Fluoride treatments at London Dental Specialists are designed to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay through a structured four-step process. Beginning with a comprehensive consultation and assessment, we evaluate your oral health to determine the necessity and suitability of fluoride application. Based on this evaluation, we develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. The fluoride treatment itself involves the careful application of a fluoride varnish, gel, or foam to your teeth, a procedure that is both quick and painless. Following the application, we provide detailed post-treatment care instructions to ensure optimal absorption and effectiveness of the fluoride, enhancing your dental health and protecting against cavities.

A fluoride treatment is a professional dental procedure that applies concentrated fluoride to the teeth to help prevent tooth decay. At London Dental Specialists, we offer fluoride treatments in several forms, including varnish that's painted directly onto the teeth and foam that's dispensed into custom trays placed over your teeth. Fluoride works by strengthening tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from plaque bacteria and sugars in the mouth. It can also reverse early signs of tooth decay by remineralising areas where acid has begun to damage the enamel.
The frequency of fluoride treatments depends on your individual oral health needs. For most patients at London Dental Specialists, we recommend professional fluoride treatments every 6-12 months during regular check-ups. However, if you have a high risk of developing tooth decay due to conditions like dry mouth, gum disease, or a history of frequent cavities, our dentists may recommend more frequent applications, possibly every 3-4 months. Your personalised treatment plan will be determined after a thorough assessment of your oral health.
The protective effects of a professional fluoride treatment typically last between three to six months. The fluoride varnish itself adheres to the teeth and leaves a thin, temporary coating that will naturally disappear when you brush your teeth. For optimal protection, we recommend maintaining regular dental check-ups at London Dental Specialists and following a consistent at-home oral hygiene routine that includes brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and daily flossing.
No, fluoride treatments at London Dental Specialists are completely painless. When applying fluoride varnish, our dentists simply paint the solution onto your teeth using a small brush. For foam or gel applications, we place a comfortable tray filled with the fluoride solution over your teeth for just 1-2 minutes. The procedure is non-invasive, quick, and causes no discomfort. Many patients describe the taste as slightly minty or neutral, and there's no recovery time needed after treatment.
Professional fluoride treatments at London Dental Specialists are safe and have minimal risk of side effects when applied correctly. Some patients may experience a temporary change in taste sensation after the treatment. In rare cases, excessive fluoride exposure over time can lead to dental fluorosis, which appears as white spots on teeth, but this is extremely unlikely with professional applications. Our dentists carefully control the amount of fluoride used in treatments to ensure safety while maximising benefits.
Fluoride treatments can benefit patients of all ages at London Dental Specialists. They are particularly beneficial for:

At London Dental Specialists, fluoride treatments are often included as part of routine dental check-ups and cleanings. For standalone treatments, the cost typically ranges based on the type of application and individual needs.

We also offer various payment plans and work with several dental insurance providers who may cover part or all of the treatment cost.
No, fluoride treatments at London Dental Specialists are designed to complement, not replace, your daily oral hygiene routine. While these treatments provide valuable protection against tooth decay, they work best when combined with proper brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, daily flossing, a balanced diet low in sugary foods and drinks, and regular dental check-ups. Professional fluoride applications provide a higher concentration of fluoride than what's available in over-the-counter products, offering additional protection alongside your home care routine.
