How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Fluoride). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Sodium Fluoride acts systemically (before tooth eruption) and topically (post-eruption) by increasing tooth resistance to acid dissolution, by promoting remineralization, and by inhibiting the cariogenic microbial process.
