Prevent Tooth Decay...
Fluoride, in
proper dosage, has been shown to significantly reduce dental decay. When
fluoridated water has less than the ideal amount or is not available,
fluoride supplements are recommended. (A call to your local water
district is all that is necessary to determine whether your water has
fluoride or not.)
When supplements are needed, the administration of fluoride
supplements should begin shortly after birth and continue through the
time of eruption of the second permanent molars (approx. 12 years of
age).
Regular dental check-ups should begin no later than 18 months of age.
If you have any questions or need more information, don't hesitate to
call.
