Epiflur is used to prevent dental caries (cavities), strengthen weakened tooth enamel, and protect against tooth sensitivity. It may be recommended for patients with a history of cavities, those with enamel erosion, or individuals with dry mouth conditions that increase decay risk.

The exact mechanism is not fully specified, but topical fluoride products like Epiflur work by depositing fluoride ions into tooth enamel, creating a stronger, more acid-resistant surface layer. This helps remineralize early decay spots and provides ongoing protection against bacterial acids.

For topical dental use only - do not swallow. Apply as directed by your dentist or healthcare provider. Rinse mouth thoroughly after use and avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes after application. Keep out of reach of children. Inform your dentist of any allergies or sensitivities before use.
