What’s in Your Prevention Toolkit? Must-Have Products for 2026

A strong prevention program is more than a philosophy—it’s a system. The most successful clinicians follow a simple, consistent workflow: detect concerns early, intervene in a minimally invasive way, and protect the results long-term. As we move into 2026, it’s the perfect time to reassess your toolkit and make sure you’re equipped with products that support this streamlined approach.

Here are three essentials from Centrix that help you do exactly that: Exposé Disposable Caries Indicator, SilverSense SDF 38% Silver Diamine Fluoride, and FluoroDose Fluoride Varnish. Let’s dive deeper into how these tools will help elevate your prevention protocols.

1. Detect the Problem with Exposé

Every effective prevention strategy begins with accurate and reliable problem detection. Exposé caries-identifying solution, gives you visual confirmation that you must take action to prevent further progression of disease. 

By visibly revealing trouble spots, Exposé also gives you the opportunity to show your patients why they need the treatment you recommend. It is like getting a second opinion in one appointment. Though your patients already trust your recommendations, it can be an additional motivating factor for them to see the caries. Afterall “a picture is worth a thousand words” so don’t miss the opportunity for maximum impact at each appointment.

Why Exposé belongs in your 2026 toolkit:

• Enhances diagnostic accuracy
• Strengthens patient understanding and motivation
• Provides a clear starting point for individualized care

2. Stop the Progression with SilverSense SDF

SilverSense SDF is a fast, efficient way to halt the progression of challenging spots and support stronger, healthier tooth surfaces moving forward.

This product gives clinicians an easy, chairside tool to manage a variety of clinical scenarios, especially when traditional treatment may be delayed or when a minimally invasive approach is preferred. With a controlled application and predictable results, SilverSense SDF empowers you to intervene early and provide your patients with more comfort and flexibility.

Why clinicians will rely on SilverSense SDF in 2026:

• Fast and easy application
• Proven way to eliminate patients’ oral pain
• Helps prepare the tooth for aesthetic restoration

3. Protect What You’ve Saved with FluoroDose

As the final step in your prevention workflow, long-lasting protection is essential. FluoroDose fluoride varnish helps ensure patients get the preventive treatment necessary to keep a healthy smile for a lifetime.

FluoroDose goes on clear and smooth and tastes delicious to ensure maximum patient satisfaction. It sticks to enamel for 4 to 6 hours to ensure optimal fluoride uptake. 

What makes FluoroDose a must-have:

• Convenient unit-dose delivery 
• Stays on the teeth for hours to ensure proper fluoride uptake
• Patient-friendly experience that supports treatment acceptance
