What is Preventative Dentistry?
Preventative dentistry focuses on maintaining optimal oral health through regular care, education, and early intervention. By taking proactive steps, we can help you avoid common dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, and enamel wear. Preventative care not only saves you time and money but also protects your overall health.
Routine checkups and professional cleanings are the foundation of preventative care. During these visits, we remove plaque and tartar buildup, assess your oral health, and identify any issues early to provide timely treatment.
We use advanced digital X-rays to get a clear view of your teeth and jaw while minimizing radiation exposure. These detailed images allow us to detect cavities, infections, and other dental concerns that may not be visible during a standard exam.
Fluoride strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities, especially for children and patients prone to tooth decay. We offer fluoride treatments as a quick and painless way to protect your teeth.
Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to prevent cavities. This simple treatment is especially effective for children but can benefit adults as well.
Early detection is key when it comes to oral cancer. During your regular exams, we perform thorough screenings to identify any signs of abnormalities, ensuring you get the care you need as soon as possible.
Our team is passionate about teaching proper oral hygiene techniques. We provide personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and diet to help you maintain a healthy smile at home.
Whether you’re a new patient or a returning one, our friendly team is eager to help you achieve your best smile.
