Saw an article earlier today about fluoride varnish treatments at the dentist. Apparently, it seriously cuts down on cavities and decay. I'm kinda skeptical tho... anyone tried it or know more about this stuff?
I've seen fluoride varnish do wonders for some patients, especially kids prone to cavities. But honestly, it's not a magic bullet—good brushing habits and diet still matter way more. Think of it as extra protection, not a cure-all.
Yeah, I was actually wondering about this myself since my dentist just recommended it for the first time. Glad to hear it's helpful for kids, but you're right—probably not gonna magically fix everything. I've always been pretty good about brushing, but cavities still pop up sometimes... maybe it's diet-related? Guess I'll try the varnish and see if it helps, but definitely won't slack off on brushing or skip flossing anytime soon.
