Fluorides

Fluorides are salts of the element fluorine and occur naturally in different concentrations in water. Because of their caries-inhibiting effect, fluorides are used in dentistry in toothpastes, dental varnishes, mouth rinses or they are available as tablets. The tablet form is no longer considered useful, the local application in the mouth, however, has remained one of the most important prophylactic measures. Fluorides are safe to use and will only lead to visible enamel stains if they are heavily overdosed, which is above all an essential problem. During orthodontic treatment, increased fluoride use with rinses, varnishes or gels is recommended.
