Preventive Dentistry

Preventive Dentistry

Preventive dentistry is routine oral care that includes regular checkups and cleanings, as well as daily brushing and flossing. These practices maintain healthy teeth and gums by preventing cavities and gum disease. It involves professional cleanings, fluoride treatment, dental sealants, and more.

Importance of dental cleaning

By having your teeth cleaned regularly and receiving thorough exams, your dentist can detect decay early on when it’s easier to treat. Your dentist can also identify and treat other oral health problems while they’re still small, preventing them from growing into more serious issues in the future. Additionally, by practicing good oral hygiene at home, you reduce the risks of developing tooth decay or oral infections.

Most patients should have their teeth professionally cleaned at least twice a year, and we may recommend more frequent cleanings based on your individual oral health needs. We will also be able to give you more advanced tips, and recommendations for brushing and flossing that will keep your smile looking its best between visits.

Benefits of preventive dentistry

Preventive dentistry is an important part of your overall dental care regimen that is designed to help you avoid problems in the first place. By coming in to see us regularly, we’ll be able to keep your teeth clean and healthy, catch any potential problems early before they require extensive treatment, and offer tips for prevention that you can use at home. Preventative dentistry is beneficial because it keeps you from suffering from avoidable toothaches and tooth sensitivity, and it saves you from having to undergo extensive treatment later on.

Preventing gum diseases

Your oral health is connected to your general health. Anyone with gum disease is at higher risk for several serious health conditions, like heart disease and diabetes. Preventive care can help you avoid these types of problems and keep your smile healthy for a lifetime.

During your regular appointments, your dentist will look for signs of cavities and gum disease. Early detection can lead to effective treatments before these issues become severe. Deep cleaning is one of the best means to treat gum diseases, as it helps to get rid of most of the harmful bacteria from the gum line which causes gum disease. Sealants and fluoride treatments can protect your teeth from decay, and regular brushing and flossing can keep plaque at bay. If it’s time for your next checkup, contact our office today to schedule your appointment.
