Cavity Prevention Measures
Dental programs that apply plastic material to the chewing surfaces of molars to prevent the accumulation of plaque in the pits and fissures on these teeth and the subsequent development of cavities. Sealants are usually applied on the teeth of children shortly after the molars emerge. Older people may also benefit from the use of sealants.
Fluoride Treatments/Supplements
Dental programs that provide self and professionally applied topical fluoride treatments and/or dietary fluoride supplements for people who use well water or live in an area where the community water supply has not been fluoridated. Fluoride supplements are available on a prescription basis, generally as a cavity prevention measure for children age six months to 16 years.
