Question: How does this new coating work?
Answer: Prevora is a clear, antibacterial coating that contains chlorhexidine, an antimicrobial compound that, unlike fluoride, readily kills bacteria on your teeth and prevents new bacteria from forming. Studies show chlorhexidine is more effective at the root surface.
Question: Will it hurt?
Answer: No, it is completely painless — it’s applied during a short visit to your dentist, and doesn’t sting, burn or taste bad.
Question: Will it discolour my teeth?
Answer: No, the coating is completely clear, and will not affect the natural colour of your teeth.
Question: Is it safe?
Answer: Yes, its active ingredient, chlorhexidine, has been used worldwide for many years. And this new coating has been tested in years of clinical studies.
Question: Can I apply this coating myself?
Answer: No, this new coating must be applied in your dentist’s office.
Question: Will my insurance cover it?
Answer: Coverage will vary by plan — ask your dentist to check with your plan provider.
