Preventive dental care includes actions taken by a patient on a daily basis to prevent oral diseases and maintain a healthy smile for a lifetime, coupled with periodic professional exams and care. Our goal is to heavily emphasize prevention from early stages of life.
Our professional care to minimize/ stop dental issues before they develop, reducing the need for more extensive, costly treatments later. We encourage practicing at-home hygiene habits as well. These actions include daily brushing with a fluoride-containing toothpaste, flossing, and maintaining a healthy diet – along with scheduling regular oral exams and professional cleanings.
Dental Prophylaxis is a professional cleaning for patients with healthy gums, performed by a dentist or hygienist. It removes plaque, tartar, and stainsfrom hard-to-reach areas that standard brushing and flossing often miss.
