Stan-Gard Fluoride gel is a stannous fluoride for use at home by our young orthodontic patients.
IMPORTANT FACTS to consider about fluoride gel and why we recommend Stan-Gard: It is sugar free, saccharin free and alcohol free. Yes, there actually are many products on the market that contain those ingredients. Stan-Gard also inhibits cavities by forming an acid resistant surface layer. Its antimicrobial properties decrease plaque formation and gingivitis, remineralizes early forming cavities (white spots), relieves tooth sensitivity (hot or cold), and reverses the effects of dry mouth (xerostomia).
We are striving for a lifetime of beautiful teeth for all our patients. The benefits of Stan-Gard gel have been proven to lessen and prevent the possible scarring of the enamel
due to poor brushing.
HOW TO USE: We recommend using Stan-Gard gel every other night at bedtime. After regular brushing, apply Stan-Gard gel to your toothbrush. Brush with Stan-Gard for about one minute. Then, swish Stan-Gard around your mouth for another minute. Expectorate excess Stan-Gard. Do not eat, drink, or rinse for 30 minutes.
If you are currently using a fluoride rinse or gel recommended by your dentist,
