PediaWell Fluoride
Preventing tooth decay and aiding in the preservation of the strength and resistance of tooth enamel
Indication:
Fluoride plays a role in the mineralization of bones and teeth, a process essential for keeping them hard and strong. About 99 percent of the fluoride in the body is stored in bones and teeth.
Fluoride drop supplements help strengthen tooth enamel during its formation. In addition, fluoride drops contribute to preventing tooth decay and cavity formation in both primary and permanent teeth throughout the growth of deciduous and permanent teeth.
The Importance of Using PediaWell Fluoride Drops in Children and Infants:
Teething begins around the age of 6 months, and by the age of 7, primary teeth gradually start to fall out, making way for permanent teeth. Without proper dental care, children’s teeth can develop cavities, leading to detrimental effects. One consequence of tooth decay is its impact on a child’s nutrition and reduced intake of essential nutrients for growth.
Parents often visit a pediatric dentist when their child experiences pain, swelling, or advanced stages of tooth decay. Unfortunately, tooth decay in children doesn’t improve on its own like a common cold, nor can it be treated with a single course of medication like other infectious diseases. As a result, maintaining and caring for teeth during childhood requires extra attention.
Since fluoride aids in the stimulation of new bone formation, researchers have proposed the hypothesis that fluoride supplements may reduce the risk of bone fractures
Fluoride deficiency in children:
Fluoride is an essential element in the growth and protection of teeth. A fluoride deficiency can lead to the formation of cavities in teeth. This mineral is crucial for the strength of teeth, both before and after their eruption, as it inhibits microbial processes and consequently prevents decay. Tooth decay, also known as cavities or dental caries, is an oral and dental disease caused by bacteria living in your mouth. These bacteria break down carbohydrates, producing organic acids that can erode minerals from the enamel.
All children are susceptible to tooth decay, but symptoms may be more noticeable in some children, as:
• They have a diet rich in sugars and starches.
• Their drinking water is limited or lacks fluoride.
• Proper tooth brushing and mouthwash usage are not followed.
• Their saliva flow is below normal.
A notable point regarding tooth decay is that identifying the initial points on teeth during the onset of decay can be challenging for pediatric dentists without complete equipment. Therefore, early detection of tooth decay may sometimes be difficult. As decay progresses, coffee-colored or black cavities may form on teeth, or tooth fractures may occur. Initially, early cavities typically have a light coffee color. Over time, as they deepen, their color darkens to a coffee brown and gradually turns black. It’s interesting to note that cavities do not always show symptoms, especially in the case of children’s molar decay.
Common clinical signs of tooth decay in children include:
• Occurrence of pain in the area around the tooth
• Tooth sensitivity to certain foods such as sweets and hot or cold beverages
• If decay leads to infection, you may notice a lump on the gum or swelling around the gum and child’s face.

Ingredients:
Fluoride: Studies have shown that fluoride consumption reduces the risk of tooth decay and premature loss of deciduous teeth by up to 35%. Additionally, the risk of losing permanent teeth in adults is 26% lower for those who received fluoride during childhood. Current research indicates that fluoride stimulates osteoblasts, aiding in bone formation, and also increases the structural stability of bones. The impact of this mineral on bones has garnered enough attention from researchers that it is currently being used as a treatment for bone-related diseases.
