  • For use on non-cavitated interproximal lesions, buccal/facial, lingual and occlusal lesions, and white spot lesions
  • Effective treatment while braces are on or after they are removed

How Early Decay Becomes a Cavity

Cavities occur when the bacteria found in plaque produce acid. This acid eats away at the minerals in your enamel in a process called demineralization.

HEALTHY TOOTH ANATOMY

Enamel: the outermost layer of the tooth crown and hardest tissue in the body

Dentin: Supports the enamel and protects the pulp

Pulp: Innermost vital part containing blood vessels and nerves

Cementum: This layer is attached to the jaw by ligaments

Image
Cavities initially develop below the tooth surface and may be visible on the surface. At this point they are reversible if treated with Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus.
Image
If left untreated, the cavities progress through the enamel, invading the dentin and causing pain. A deep cavity results, which can only be treated by drilling and filling the tooth.

How it Works

Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus is applied directly onto the cleaned surface of he early carious lesion and allowed to dry for five minutes.

After one application, Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus acts where it is needed. It’s that simple. Over the course of weeks, the unique CUROLUX® formulation and the application procedure help minerals, like calcium and phosphate found in saliva, to penetrate the enamel surface. Lost enamel is remineralized and re-hardened.

Initial results are visible in about 90 days. Although one application is typically enough, Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus can be reapplied at 3-6 month intervals.

Treat White Spot Lesions While Braces are On

While you are wearing braces, bacteria can build up around brackets and at the gumline, often resulting in white spot lesions. These lesions are called early caries and can be treated before they become large enough to require a filling. Using a patented formula, enamel is remineralized without any pain or loss of tooth structure. By remineralizing early carious lesions, patients can avoid potentially painful and costly restorative work later.
