Ellen H is awesome. She has great bedside manner, great educator, and so proficient in her care. I felt so calm and comfortable in her capable hands. Walked out with a great smile!
Great care, excellent Dental Hygienist!
5 stars isn’t enough for the experience I had at Gentle Dental South Boston! As someone with severe dental anxiety and past traumatic dental experiences, I was terrified going into my oral surgery procedure — but Dr. Yang and his team completely changed that for me. From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff was kind, patient, and reassuring. Dr. Yang’s bedside manner was incredible and the procedure was far smoother and more comfortable than I ever expected. The surgical assistant/team was also amazing throughout the entire visit. You can truly tell this office cares about people, not just patients. A special thank you to Olivia for referring me and helping coordinate everything from start to finish. The level of care, compassion, and professionalism here is unmatched. I’m actually looking forward to continuing my implant process with this team, which is something I never thought I’d say after past dental experiences. If you have dental anxiety, this is absolutely the place to go.
Fluoride treatment is a simple preventive procedure that can often be completed during a routine dental visit.
Your dentist or dental professional evaluates your teeth and considers your cavity risk to determine whether fluoride treatment is appropriate.
A concentrated fluoride product is applied directly to the teeth. The process is quick and does not require drilling or injections.
Your dental team will provide instructions about eating, drinking, brushing, or flossing after treatment based on the fluoride product used.
Fluoride treatment is commonly associated with children, but adults may also benefit from additional fluoride protection.
Your dentist may recommend fluoride treatment if you:

No. Children and adults may benefit from fluoride treatment. Your dentist will consider factors such as cavity history, enamel health, dry mouth, gum recession, and other dental needs before recommending treatment.
The recommended frequency varies based on your risk of developing cavities and your overall oral health. Your dentist can recommend an appropriate schedule after evaluating your teeth.
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and helps make teeth more resistant to the acids that contribute to tooth decay. It is commonly used as part of a broader cavity-prevention routine.
Fluoride treatment can often be provided during a preventive dental visit. Your Gentle Dental South Boston team can determine whether it should be included based on your dental needs.
Some adults with dry mouth may have a higher risk of tooth decay because reduced saliva provides less natural protection for the teeth. Your dentist can determine whether additional fluoride would be helpful.
