What Is Preventative Dentistry?
Preventative dentistry is the key to maintaining your oral health. This type of dentistry includes dental services that protect your teeth and help prevent them from cavities and gum disease. Regular annual cleanings and check-ups are necessary preventative measures to protect your oral health. Our professionals create personalized treatment plans for each patient that assess your risk of gum disease and cavity development. When you visit us, we will perform a full oral exam which includes a screening for oral cancer, x-rays, and a gum chart evaluation. Based on the results of the oral exam, we will recommend the frequency of cleanings you should have and discuss what preventative measures you can take at home. Maintaining a specific dental hygiene routine at home can significantly help boost your oral health.

Sealants prevent food from getting stuck in the deep grooves of teeth. Our team can expertly place sealants as a preventative measure to deter cavities.

When cavities are very deep or just starting, we can use silver diamine fluoride to arrest and harden cavities. It allows us to preserve tooth structure and harden tooth surfaces that are near the dental pulp/nerve. It is safe to use on children and can be a great interim and even definite treatment.
