Preventative Dentistry
Preventative
Basic preventive and diagnostic dentistry focus on maintaining oral health and preventing future dental problems through routine care and early detection. Routine cleanings are a foundational part of this, as they remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can’t always address. During these cleanings, dental hygienists polish the teeth and provide personalized advice on maintaining oral hygiene between visits. An annual dental exam, often done in conjunction with the cleaning, allows the dentist to check for signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, or other issues, ensuring any problems are caught early when they’re easiest to treat.
Diagnostic
Diagnostic X-rays, typically taken annually, provide a detailed look at areas beneath the gums and between the teeth that are not visible to the naked eye. These X-rays help detect tooth decay, impacted teeth, bone loss, and other underlying conditions, enabling us to make timely recommendations for treatments if needed. Together, preventive and diagnostic practices form a proactive approach to keeping teeth and gums healthy for the long term.
