Tooth decay is caused by acid-producing bacteria called plaque, which will collect around your teeth and gums. Brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are helpful to get rid of a lot of this plaque, but fluoride treatments help prevent plaque and can repair teeth in the earliest stages of tooth decay. Below are some factors that increase your risk of tooth decay and increase the need for fluoride treatment: -Poor oral hygiene -Lack of regular professional dental care -Active orthodontic treatments -Exposed root surfaces of teeth -Poor diet Existing restorations
"I have had a LOT of dentists in my life (I've moved a zillion times) but the folks at Erskine Family are THE BEST I've EVER had by far. I just had two fillings redone in spots that have previously been very painful and problematic for other dentists to deal with. At Erskine, it could not have been a better experience, and the resin fillings look beautiful. They are so skilled, nice, helpful, and organized. Thank you all,"
