When temperatures drop, sugary treats rise—and so does the risk of tooth decay. That’s why winter is the perfect time to give your child’s smile a little extra protection with a fluoride varnish treatment.
What is Fluoride Varnish?
Fluoride varnish is a quick, painless treatment applied directly to the teeth. It strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities by making teeth more resistant to acids and bacteria.
Why Winter is the Perfect Season
- More Sugar, More Risk
From holiday cookies to hot cocoa, winter is full of sweet temptations. Fluoride adds a shield against sugar-induced cavities. - Cold Weather = Dry Mouth
Heated indoor air and less water intake can dry out the mouth, reducing its natural defense against bacteria. Fluoride helps fill the gap. - Kids Are Home from School
Take advantage of school breaks to schedule a quick and effective fluoride treatment.
Fast, Safe, and Effective
Fluoride varnish is safe for toddlers, kids, and teens. It only takes a few minutes and can last for months with proper care.
