Preventive
Dentistry deals with the prevention of
dental disease. Each patient receives
a customized prevention plan based on
a thorough evaluation of his or her mouth
at the time of the initial oral examination.
This is a dynamic plan that is revised
during subsequent periodic examinations.
Our
most common Preventive Procedures are:
Individualized
oral hygiene instruction -
to help the patient learn how to take
care of his or her own mouth.
Fluoride
treatments - to strengthen
tooth enamel and help prevent decay.
Sealants -
to protect cavity prone areas in childrens
teeth.
Athletic
Mouthguards - to help prevent
sports injuries to the teeth.
