Did you know that minor tooth decay can sometimes be reversed? Instead of waiting for a cavity to develop to the point where it needs to be drilled and filled, our team can apply Curodont to the affected area and reverse the decay, saving patients time and money and keeping their smiles as healthy as possible.

What does Curodont do?
Curodont is a non-invasive treatment designed to help rebuild and strengthen weakened tooth enamel in the early stages of decay. It works by guiding minerals back into the tooth structure, helping stop cavities before they progress. Curodont supports natural remineralization without drilling or anesthesia, making it a gentle option for preserving healthy tooth structure.
Who is a good candidate for Curodont?
Curodont is ideal for patients with early enamel damage or very small cavities. Good candidates often include:
- Patients with early-stage tooth decay
- Children or adults who want non-invasive treatment
- Patients with white spot lesions
- Individuals looking to avoid fillings
What is the process of getting Curodont at the dentist?
The Curodont process is quick and comfortable. We begin by cleaning and preparing the tooth surface, then carefully apply the Curodont solution to the affected area. The material penetrates the enamel and begins the remineralization process. No drilling or numbing is required, and patients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
How is Curodont different from fluoride?
Fluoride strengthens enamel by making it more resistant to acid, while Curodont actively helps rebuild enamel structure from within. Fluoride is preventive and surface-focused, whereas Curodont targets early decay at a deeper level. In many cases, the two can work together, offering enhanced protection and support for long-term tooth health.
Is Curodont expensive?
Curodont is generally affordable, especially when compared to the cost of traditional fillings or restorative treatment. Pricing varies based on the number of teeth treated, and some insurance plans may offer coverage. Even when not covered, many patients find Curodont to be a cost-effective way to prevent more extensive dental work in the future.
