Aug 04, 2025

Fluoride does more than just prevent cavities—it actually strengthens teeth before they even come in. James Bekker, DMD, a pediatric dentist at ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓÆµ of Utah ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓÆµ, explains how fluoride delivered during a ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓÆµâ€™s formative years hardens tooth enamel, reduces decay, and prevents painful dental problems later in life. Learn why timing matters and how parents can ensure their ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓÆµren get the fluoride they need.
