Welcome to our latest video on fluoride and oral health! In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore everything you need to know about fluoride and its impact on your dental health.

What is Fluoride?
Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral known for its ability to strengthen teeth and prevent decay. It's widely used in dental care products and community water supplies.

How Fluoride Works on Enamel:
Fluoride helps protect and repair tooth enamel, the hard, outer layer of your teeth. By enhancing the enamel's resistance to acid attacks from bacteria and food, fluoride plays a crucial role in preventing cavities.

The Structure of Enamel:
Enamel is the hardest substance in the human body, composed primarily of mineralized calcium phosphate. Its role is to shield the softer underlying dentin and protect against decay.

Sources of Fluoride:
You can find fluoride in various sources including fluoridated drinking water, toothpaste, mouth rinses, and some foods.

Benefits of Fluoride:
Fluoride helps to remineralize enamel, making it stronger and more resistant to acid attacks. It also helps to reduce tooth sensitivity and can even reverse early signs of tooth decay.

Fluorosis:
Fluorosis is a condition caused by excessive fluoride exposure during the early years of life, leading to changes in the appearance of enamel. It typically manifests as white spots or streaks on the teeth and is usually mild and cosmetic.

Risks of Fluoride:
While fluoride is beneficial in appropriate amounts, overexposure can lead to dental fluorosis or, in rare cases, more severe health issues. It's important to use fluoride products as directed and consult with a dental professional.
