You know that preventive care will help you keep your smile safe and healthy. However, do you know what prevention actually includes for your oral health? Or, is it something that sounds good but of which you have very little knowledge? If you’re not entirely sure what to expect, run through our quick review of your options.
We’ll Check In On Your Smile
One part of your two-part preventive care visit that you should schedule two times per year is your dental checkup. We’ll check in on your smile by physically looking at and examining your teeth and oral tissues. We will then take a closer review of your smile with dental imaging, so we’ve got a thorough idea of your oral health.
We’ll Clean Your Smile
The second part of your two-part preventive care visit is going to include a dental cleaning. In addition to checking on your smile, we will also remove tartar and plaque, so your hygiene at home is consistently worth the effort, and so you may avoid problems like decay.
We Can Assist With Perio Problems
Having issues with your gums? We offer deep cleanings, too, so you may address periodontal disease concerns immediately, while protecting and saving the long-term health of your smile.
Functional Issues? No Sweat!
Have we informed you that you’re experiencing bruxism, which is a functional disorder that leaves you headed toward serious damage if you don’t get your grinding and clenching under control? If so, it’s time to come in for the care you require with bruxism treatment. What makes it preventive care if the problem already exists, you wonder? Simple: The fact that we can stop the issue and prevent damage.
