Do I Need Fluoride Treatment?
Our expert Ashford based dental team will ultimately conclude whether you are a good candidate for fluoride treatment. However, here are some signs you could be a good candidate:
- History of cavities/tooth decay
- A history of cavities or tooth decay indicates a higher susceptibility to dental issues, making these individuals ideal candidates for fluoride treatment, as it strengthens enamel and helps prevent future decay.
- Dry Mouth
- Dry mouth, frequently resulting from specific health conditions or medications, leads to reduced saliva flow, which can increase vulnerability to oral health problems. Fluoride treatment can be helpful in such cases by enhancing the protective properties of saliva.
- Restorative Dental Work
- Crowns, partial dentures, or dental bridges may heighten your susceptibility to cavities, particularly around orthodontic brackets or at the junction where your crown meets your tooth. Fluoride treatment can help strengthen the enamel, providing added protection against decay in these vulnerable areas.
How to Pay For Fluoride Treatment
At Gamble and Kingry Family Dentistry, we pride ourselves on highly competitive fluoride treatment prices in Ashford. The extent of coverage for fluoride treatment depends on your insurance plan, with coverage often provided for children but not adults. If fluoride treatment is not covered under your plan, we can explore financing options to ensure you receive the care you need.

Periodontal Disease
The word periodontal means “around the tooth”. Periodontal disease attacks the gums and the bone that support the teeth. Plaque is a sticky film of food debris, bacteria, and saliva.
Oral Hygiene Aids
Regular dental checkups are essential for maintaining excellent oral hygiene and diagnosing potential problems, but they are not a “fix-all” solution. Thorough oral homecare routines should be practiced on a daily basis to avoid future dental problems.
Home Care
A beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime is our ultimate goal when treating patients. Your personal home care plays an important role in achieving that goal.
How To Properly Brush & Floss
Brushing and flossing are of paramount importance to oral hygiene. Though bi-annual professional dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and debris, excellent homecare methods are equally valuable.
Digital X-Rays
Dental x-rays are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam. Dentists and dental hygienists use this information to safely and accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities and complete an accurate treatment plan.
Oral Cancer Screening
The inside of the mouth is normally lined with a special type of skin (mucosa) that is smooth and coral pink in color. Any alteration in this appearance could be a warning sign of a pathological process. The most serious of these is oral cancer.
Dental Bridges
A safe, low-risk way to replace one or more missing teeth. Natural teeth or dental implants can be used as anchors to support the suspended replacement teeth.
Dental Crowns
Decay or trauma can cause loss of tooth structure and can compromise function as well as esthetics. Extensive loss of tooth structure can best be replaced with a restoration that covers your entire tooth as in a crown. This “full coverage” restoration can strengthen your tooth and in the hands of an expert can provide a long-lasting esthetic and functional result.
Dental Exams And Cleanings
There are two parts to your Gamble & Kingry Family dental visit – examination and cleaning. Your exam will check for cavities, plaque, and tartar on your teeth.
Extractions
While many of us do our best to keep our teeth healthy, sometimes a tooth needs to be taken out to keep you healthy. In these cases, an extraction is necessary.
Fillings
Dental fillings are the most conservative way to restore smaller areas of tooth decay. In a dental experts hand, these types of restorations can be made to conserve as much of your natural tooth as possible while providing a restoration that is almost indistinguishable from the natural tooth. Both resin and porcelain fillings can be adhesively bonded to your natural tooth to add strength.
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal is a minimally invasive, nonsurgical endodontic treatment. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and involves opening the crown of the tooth, exposing the roots and pulp of the tooth. When the pulp and root is exposed the infected areas of the tooth are removed.
