MANAGEMENT OF FLUOR DEFENDER USAGE FOR PRESCHOOL CHILDREN. CASE REPORT
Abstract:
Prevention is the most effective and low cost measure to promote oral health. The use of
cariostatic action of fluoride varnishes is one of the main directions of preventing tooth decay.
Prophylactic services provided to preschool children can be difficult to manage due to their young age
and psychological characteristics. The aim of this paper is to describe how flour defender application
can be managed in dental caries prevention to a preschool 3 years old boy. During his first visit to our
dental office, we were able to cooperate with him and to provide a non invasive treatment to all
deciduous teeth, except upper central incisors that were affected by incipient caries. We used a
protective enamel with fluoride for children containing 0,1% fluorosilane.
