What is Preventive Dental Care?

Why is Preventive Dental Care Important?

Dental treatments are often invasive and expensive. Since you can prevent most oral problems with preventive dental care, it is crucial for you to know and undergo any recommended precautionary options. They will save you money and time in the dental office.

What Are Some Regular Preventive Services?

Cleanings

Regular professional cleanings are essential to your dental health. It offers the best technique to physically remove the disease-causing dental plaque and tartar from your teeth. Cleanings are also helpful in cleaning the hard-to-reach areas near the gum line. 

Dental Sealants

Sealants are discreet plastic coatings that help fill the tiny grooves in back teeth. This is to keep them from becoming a sanctuary for bacteria. They prevent the development of cavities and consequently the need for fillings later on.

Fluoride Treatment

This mineral, present in the teeth's mineral structure, makes them stronger and more decay-resistant. Fluoride can even reverse the formation of minor cavities. If you are not getting sufficient fluoride from your toothpaste and drinking water, it can be applied directly to your teeth's surface at the dental office.

Oral Cancer Screenings

Screenings for oral cancer give you the best chance of surviving the disease. It primarily affects alcohol addicts, chronic smokers, and those prone to excessive sun exposure. Early detection and treatment could help cure the condition effectively. 

Dental X-Rays

Dental X-rays help reveal signs of disease that cannot be seen by the unaided eye. Through X-rays, we can locate cracks and fractures on the teeth; determine the beginning and extent of misalignments, jawbone deterioration, underlying cavities, wear of the biting surfaces, drifting of teeth, etc.
