DuraShield® 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish
For over 30 years sodium fluoride varnish has been used in Europe and Canada for caries prevention on both primary and permanent teeth. In the 1990’s fluoride varnish was introduced in the US and approved by the FDA for use as a cavity varnish and desensitizing agent.
5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish
DuraShield fluoride varnish has several advantages over traditional fluoride treatments with speed, ease of use and range of application. With DuraShield there is no need for a prophy before application. It sets on contact with saliva and releases fluoride for 6-8 hours. There is very little ingestion of fluoride, unlike traditional tray applications. DuraShield fluoride varnish can be safely applied to small children (infants/toddlers) disabled patients and patients with active gag reflex with minimal effort. Its light amber color lets you know the tooth surface is completely covered without compromise of esthetics (refer to image below) and will be removed during regular tooth brushing the following morning.
