The foods you eat (i.e., salty or sweet snacks) create bacteria that live on your teeth. This bacteria produces an acid that causes the enamel, calcium, and phosphate to be stripped away from your teeth. This is why your saliva is so important. If you have questions about fluoride treatment, call us at (346) 701-5339 to speak to one of our team members. We’d be happy to answer all your questions!
