Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride

Fluoride is a mineral that occurs naturally in all water sources, including the oceans. Research has shown that fluoride not only reduces cavities in children and adults, but it also helps repair the early stages of tooth decay, even before the decay is visible. Fluoride is the best cavity fighter to help keep the whole family's teeth strong — no matter their ages.
 

How Does Fluoride Strengthen Your Teeth?

When it reaches your teeth, fluoride is absorbed into the enamel. It helps to repair the enamel by replenishing the lost calcium and phosphorous to keep your teeth hard. This process is caused remineralization. When fluoride is present during remineralization, the minerals deposited into the tooth enamel help strengthen your teeth and prevent dissolution during the next demineralization phase. Thus, fluoride helps stop the decay process and prevent tooth decay.

I had a crown replaced. The experince was prompt, pain free and as close to fun that I can remember in a dentist's office. Thumbs up for Dr. Britt and Shelly.

I’ve just had my first appointment with Dr Britt and team and they were fantastic. They squeezed me in last minute for a broken tooth and Dr Britt thoroughly explained my options and associated costs. Things were transparent and efficient and I appreciated the humor to lighten my concerns. It was truly a great experience. They even took the time to introduce several team members to me. I’m happy I’ve chosen Britt Dental Center for my new dentist. Thank you all!

Dr. Britt and his team are the best. Everything was like clockwork from check in to check out. I'm very confident in my care and know they take my concerns seriously. Great practice. I've recommended to many and they now trust Dr. Britt and his team with their dental care.

When I started going to Ben Britt after moving to Raleigh a dozen years ago, the typical Dentist racket collapsed: no constant cavities being identified, no "while we're in there" timeshare pitch, and no man standing there staring into my head like he found the leak and gets to price the remodel. It's a smooth, comfortable ride through their nicely designed visit process of cleaning, x-rays, scanning, data comparisons, and any feedback I may have on new issues. When the Doctor arrives (DDS - real doctor energy, smaller jurisdiction. If I have a heart attack in the chair, he's still the best guy for my teeth) we sit there trading sarcastic stories and whatever bourbon we had last week, which admittedly is a bit challenging considering his hands are in my mouth. Added bonus: the hygienists and front office staff are funny and friendly people who are actually happy to be at work, not like some other offices where they resentfully find you on their clipboard list while checking you in to Hell. If your smile looks like a grenade went off in your mouth, or your teeth were painted in a vibrant shade of brown or yellow, switch to Britt. For everybody else, switch anyway - they're the best.

As always, my visit, for a cleaning, at Dr. Britt’s practice was quick and pleasant.

Great experience! Ashleigh the hygienist was thorough but very gentle cleaning my teeth. I’d skipped some cleanings prior to this appointment but she was kind, nonjudgmental, and didn’t hurt me while getting rid of the excess plaque buildup on my teeth. Thanks to everyone- especially Ashleigh.

Appointments always start on time, and staff is always highly efficient. Imaging, cleaning, and final doc examination all happened in less than 35-40 minutes. Several staff members recognized me by name. 😁
