Often a component in most general dental health programs, fluoride is a beneficial substance present in select foods and liquids. However, it may also be painted topically onto the enamel to offer several oral advantages. Fluoride can safeguard from cavities by allowing the teeth to be less vulnerable to buildup. It can also reinforce the tooth's framework to help reverse the initial stages of cavities. At Maison BE, we happily perform professional fluoride services for children and adults of all ages. To learn more about how fluoride could enhance your dental wellness, schedule an appointment with Dr. Ellen Katz or Dr. Bridget Glazarov in New York, NY.
What to Expect with Fluoride Treatments
At Maison BE, fluoride treatments are usually recommended twice-yearly soon after a professional cleaning and annual dental exam. When your flavor is selected, we will apply the fluoride as a liquid, gel, foam, or varnish. It is usually kept on the enamel for 1 – 4 minutes in order to give the fluoride enough time to penetrate your teeth. To attain the best possible advantages from your fluoride session, you may need to wait at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking beverages. Though these treatments help to fight tooth decay, it is still worthwhile to brush using fluoridated pastes and rinses every day. We also advise that you attend biannual dental exams and thorough cleanings so Dr. Ellen or Dr. Bridget can check your complete dental health.
Maison BE Dental Studio Reviews
An exceptional dental experience like none other. From the moment I walked in the door until I left, I was treated like gold. The staff is warm and inviting. My hygienist, Jade was personable and put me at ease during my new patient experience. Dr. Ellen helped me create a plan of care based on my goals and what's best best for my oral health. The office is fabulous and it's a boutique experience I cannot recommend enough. This dental studio is like none other and I am so pleased to be a new patient at such a wonderful and caring dental studio. They have added touches and options that set them apart from all others and they have raised the bar on what an amazing patient experience is supposed to feel like. I speak confidently and with experience writing this review as I'm a nurse and they know what it means to make it all about the patient. They have thought of everything and then things that make sense that no other dental office has offered during an office visit. My under eye patches were soothing and my favorite part! I truly feel that everyone has my best interest at heart and insures I feel like a VIP while at Maison Be. They sent me home with a beautiful bag of goodies which made my day. I cannot wait to wear my new sweatshirt and feel apart of the Maison Be family as I am proud to represent such an exceptional dental studio. This women owned business has knocked it out of the park!!!!! I am pleased to support these women as they build a brand unlike none other. Thank you everyone who made my first experience one that I will not forget. I can't wait to go back and who says that about the dentist?! Fabulous and fun!!
Have been looking for a new dentist since i moved to the city and after some research and a TikTok post(haha) i decided to try out Maison Be. To start off the appointment making process was so smooth for a new patient, didn't have to call just made an appointment online; the front desk staff is very very organized, so welcoming and kind, very short wait and even offered me a beverage while i waited. The hygienist(completely forgot her name but i believe it starts with a J) and Dr (Ellen Katz) were both so sweet and personable. They both made me feel so comfortable with the amenities provided AND checked in with me while they were checking and cleaning my teeth. I really appreciate the service and visit I received because as a person of color I feel a lot of offices aren't as welcoming and genuine about the care they give me. So glad I found my new dentist! Thank you so much!!!
The doctor has the most personable approach, remembering me every time. Had my first ever filling (I was nervous) and they made me so comfortable. It also was super quick and efficient. As a former dentist hater/avoider, they have truly turned my views on the dentist around.
Dr. Ellen is the best. She had a comprehensive understanding of what I needed to get taken care of and she provided a plan that would work effectively to ensure I get the results I want. She was extremely attentive and performed every procedure smoothly with great results and zero pain! I recommend her for all dental needs and trust her to do what’s best for the patient because of her vast experience and academic knowledge. The experience at the office was 5 stars, it’s a beautiful place and felt like I was at a luxury spa!
Absolutely amazing. A trip to the dentist that feels like a relaxing day on vacation.

About UsFluoride Treatment FAQs
Can fluoride treatments help with teeth sensitivity?
Yes, fluoride treatments can be particularly effective in reducing tooth sensitivity. Fluoride strengthens the enamel, which can wear down due to various factors, exposing the dentin and leading to sensitivity. By enhancing the enamel's strength, fluoride helps to block the pathways to the nerves in your teeth that cause sensitivity. Over time, regular fluoride treatments may significantly reduce the discomfort associated with sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet stimuli.
How long does the protective effect of a fluoride treatment last?
The effects of fluoride treatment can last several months, depending on your oral hygiene habits and diet. For children, the protection tends to last longer, as their teeth are still developing and more receptive to fluoride absorption. Adults may benefit from more frequent applications, especially if they are at higher risk for cavities. Your dentist may recommend treatments every 3, 6, or 12 months based on your specific needs to maintain optimal enamel strength and protection.
Is fluoride treatment necessary if I use a fluoride toothpaste?
While fluoride toothpaste is beneficial, it often does not provide the concentrated level of fluoride that professional treatments can offer. Fluoride treatments at the dental office contain a higher concentration, which allows for deeper penetration and more significant benefits, especially for individuals prone to cavities. Fluoride in toothpaste also tends to rinse away quickly, whereas the fluoride applied by a dentist stays on the teeth longer, offering extended protection.
