🩺 Clinical
Fluoride is used to prevent tooth decay. It is taken up by teeth and helps to strengthen teeth, resist acid, and block the cavity-forming action of bacteria. Fluoride usually is prescribed for children and adults whose homes have water that is not fluoridated (already has fluoride added). This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Read the full MedlinePlus article ↗This is a fluoride toothpaste gel marketed as an over-the-counter monograph drug product under FDA guidelines for oral care. It contains sodium fluoride, a mineral compound typically used in dental products to help strengthen tooth enamel and reduce cavity formation. Applied by brushing onto the teeth and gums, sodium fluoride functions as a topical agent intended to support oral hygiene when used as directed on the label.
