Fluoride Supplements
Nature’s Gift to Your Smile
Most tap water in the United States contains fluoride today. However, most bottled water doesn't. As a result, many people have fluoride deficiency, which puts teeth at a greater risk for getting cavities. In some cases, parents think that they are protecting their babies by using bottled water to mix formula, but tap water is actually better in this case. Many children pack bottled water in school lunches, and adults tend to toss bottled water in the car instead of filling up a reusable water bottle with tap water. Thankfully, East Islip Dental Care can provide the fluoride exposure your family needs.

Facts About Fluoride
Fluoride is an interesting mineral because it attracts other minerals and strengthens tooth enamel. At your checkup, we can determine whether your teeth would benefit from a fluoride supplement. If we find that your teeth could use a boost, we'll recommend a simple solution.
Fluoride mouth rinse is available at our office in many different flavors. One quick rinse, and your teeth will have a better chance of staying healthy.
