Fluorides In all domestic and drinking water there are very small amounts of fluoride dissolved. Daily fluoride supplementation is therefore extremely important in caries prophylaxis.
Cleaning methods The teeth should be brushed with a conscious systematic method, preferably after every meal. The interdental spaces should be cleaned once a day. Regular systematic cleaning will prevent plaque from forming on the teeth in the first place.
Nutrition A healthy balanced diet is also part of caries prophylaxis. A nourishing, low sugar diet is the first prerequisite for healthy teeth.
