Protect Your Oral Health With Preventive Care

Bacteria that cause tooth decay and gum infections are already in your mouth. They just need an opportunity to eat away at your enamel and irritate your gums. Prevention is the best approach for these and other oral health issues. That’s what dental cleanings and exams are for.

A good guideline is getting two professional dental checkups each year. We will remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. For added protection, you can take advantage of other services during your visits:

• Dental Sealants – Think of this ultra-thin plastic coating applied to your teeth as a shield that fends off attacks from harmful bacteria.
• Fluoride Treatments – Fluoride makes your tooth enamel stronger and more capable of resisting decay.

Routine exams give us the opportunity to find problems early. If you have signs of gum disease, a treatment called scaling and root planing can protect your smile. Periodontitis (advanced gum disease) is the leading cause of tooth loss in the United States, and we want you to keep your teeth as long as possible.

Dry mouth increases your risk of gum infections, while bad breath can be a symptom of periodontal problems. By treating your gums, you can prevent those other issues too.

Good oral health comes from making a consistent effort and getting the support of a good team. At our practice, we offer a wide range of services that go far beyond the basics. With our cosmetic dentistry, you can upgrade your smile. With our restorative services, you can bring back the full function of your teeth.
