It’s always better to prevent cavities in the first place than treat them after the fact—and ignoring them altogether should never be an option. But what if there were an effective and non-invasive treatment capable of resolving minor cavities before they have the chance to worsen? Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus offers just that. Continue reading to learn more about this exciting dental treatment and how it can easily help you enjoy a cavity-free and thriving smile.
What Exactly Is Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus Treatment?
Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus is a professional dental treatment designed to strengthen tooth enamel before more serious damage occurs. Unlike traditional cavity fillings, which remove decayed portions of a tooth and replace them with artificial material, Curodont™ works by encouraging the tooth to heal itself naturally using a combination of fluoride and peptides, as well as the calcium and phosphate that are found in your saliva.
Why Use Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus?
The truth is, cavities don’t occur overnight; they take some time to develop, and in their earliest stages, they often appear as white spots or lines on the enamel. This means that minerals are being lost from the tooth’s surface layer, leading to the teeth being more vulnerable to decay.
However, the right kind of intervention can often stop or even reverse this problem. For children and teens with early signs of decay or adults who want to avoid fillings, Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus treatment stands out. It’s also ideal for those who’d simply prefer less-invasive care in general.
How Does the Treatment Work?
The treatment is capable of delivering fluoride where it’s needed most—directly to the “problem areas” found on select teeth with early signs of decay. Your dentist will apply the solution to early cavities, and the peptides in the solution can penetrate the enamel and essentially create a scaffolding for new minerals to form.
The added fluoride enhances this remineralization process, making the surface of the tooth stronger and more resistant to future decay. Over the course of the next couple of weeks, your body will naturally complete the process by depositing calcium and phosphate into the area, which will be absorbed by the enamel.
With Curodont™, there’s no pain, no need for drilling, and remarkable improvement is seen in the teeth that are treated. If it’s a gentler approach to cavities that you’re searching for, don’t hesitate to speak with your dentist about this one.
