Good questions.
Clearer answers.
Is Gel 1100 prescription-strength toothpaste?
Gel 1100 contains 1,100 ppm fluoride. It is different from 5,000 ppm prescription-strength toothpaste. Ask your dentist which product is appropriate for your care.
Can fluoride repair a hole in a tooth?
Fluoride can help reverse early mineral loss, but a formed cavity may require dental treatment. An examination determines what your tooth needs.
Should I combine several fluoride products?
Tell your dentist what you already use. Follow product directions rather than adding stronger or additional products on your own.
