Cleanings & Prevention
Dentistry over the
years has changed in many ways;
technologically, better procedures, and
increased medical knowledge. This
practice takes pride in the saying "the
best offense is a good defense". By this
we put in place a preventive program.
The program uses cooperation to maintain
excellent oral health for our patients.
The overall goal of the program is to
preserve your current oral condition by
preventing any problems before they
occur, and preventing any chronic dental
diseases from reoccurring.
Preventing dental diseases (both short
and long term) starts at home. It begins
at home proper oral hygiene (brushing
techniques, flossing, mouthwash, and
balanced diet). The prevention then
carries into regular visits to the
dental office with the cooperation of
the dentist to promote, fix any new
conditions and most importantly maintain
your oral health.
Prevention overall includes regular
dental exams which involves cleanings
and x-rays (to detect any new or
upcoming problems). We strive on
practicing preventive (non invasive)
dentistry, so we also recommend sealants
and fluoride treatments to better
protect your teeth for years to come!
Why do we practice and promote
preventive dentistry?
We are making things easier for you in
the long run. By helping you avoid high
costs for something that could have been
avoided. Overall we feel prevention is
the key to maintaining a healthy,
beautiful and confident smile.
