A member asked:
Can i apply fluoride varnish myself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course, you can: According to the FDA administration, fluoride varnish is under the category of “drugs” that presents minimal risk and is subject to the lowest level of regulation. Is safe and well tolerated by infants, young children, and adults. Ask your dentist for more information.
