Preventive Care

Preventive Care

Preventive dental care is the best way to keep your smile beautiful and maintain good oral health. One way to keep your beautiful smile healthy is routine cleanings and checkups. Preventive dental care will help to protect their teeth and minimize dental treatment costs.  The American Dental Association recommends that you visit your dentist have your teeth cleaned at least twice a year.  This will reduce the likelihood of gingivitis and periodontal disease progressing.  Most dental insurance covers cleanings and checkups, making these necessary visits affordable.

Professional teeth cleanings aim to remove plaque, tartar and stains that have accumulated on the teeth. Even with routine brushing and flossing of your teeth and gums, tartar can develop. The professional cleaning of teeth is a crucial part of good oral hygiene and is needed periodically to maintain the health of your teeth and gums.  Good oral hygiene at home is vital to prevent buildup and gum disease.

 

Comprehensive Dental Exams

Routine checkups once a year can catch dental issues in the early stages. Our dental team uses advanced technology to identify decay, cracks and other oral health issues during annual exams including:  digital x-rays and intraoral cameras for advanced imaging when screening for decay, tooth damage, oral cancer and other dental issues. Catching oral health issues early can minimize serious complications and improve treatment options.

Checkups are needed to identify any dental issues and create a treatment plan to protect your oral health. This is also a great opportunity for you to ask about cosmetic or restorative dentistry options to improve your smile.  Our dental team are here to answer any questions you have about your oral health and provide options to improve the beauty of your smile.

To protect your smile and oral health, make sure to adhere to annual or bi-annual cleanings and checkups. Sometimes, we recommend cleanings 3-4 times a year.  We accept most types of dental insurance, so call us today.
