The application of fluoride varnish is an effective method against tooth decay that can appear in the primary or permanent dentition. It is also effective in treatments against tooth sensitivity.
Fluoride varnish is easy to apply, offers greater absorption of minerals on the teeth, and is very safe, unlike other topical fluoride treatments (gels and rinses).
