Fluoride Varnish

Fluoride varnish is a quick, easy treatment that helps protect teeth and strengthen enamel. The varnish is applied as a thin layer to the teeth, where it hardens and slowly releases fluoride to support strong, healthy smiles.

This preventive treatment is especially helpful for children, who are more likely to develop cavities.
