Cavities are one of the most common health conditions, afflicting more than 90% of people at some point in their lives. Good habits like brushing, flossing, and routine dental cleanings can all reduce the risk of dental decay, but there might be even more you can do. Ask your dentist if they offer Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus! It is a new and exciting way to fight cavities. This blog post explains what you should know about it.
What Is Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus?
In order to understand how Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus works, you need to know a bit about how cavities form. They start in the outermost layer of the teeth, which is called enamel. Dental enamel is 96% minerals, including calcium, phosphate, and more. Unfortunately, those minerals can start to erode when they are exposed to plaque and acidic compounds. That erosion can eventually lead to cavities.
Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus helps to replace lost minerals in the tooth enamel. It is a non-invasive and simple therapy that can fortify the teeth and even reverse early signs of decay.
Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus vs. Regular Fluoride Treatment
Dentists often recommend the application of a fluoride varnish to prevent cavities. That is not a bad thing (fluoride is effective at promoting remineralization), but Curodont is superior. Not only does it have fluoride, but it also contains other minerals as well. It even has a proprietary peptide that plays an important role in enamel repair.
There is evidence to indicate that Curodont is 13 times more likely to successfully repair early tooth decay than fluoride varnish alone!
