PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY
REHOBOTH DENTAL CLINIC
Our Preventive Dentistry
Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for your teeth to keep them healthy. This helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear, and more. There are many forms of preventive dentistry, such as daily brushing and dental cleanings.
Comprehensive Examinations
- They can typically damage the structures in the mouth before the patient seeks dental care for them.
- Many dental problems, like tooth decay and gum disease, do not cause any symptoms in their development stage
- Generally speaking, dental problems are easier and cheaper to treat in their early stages.
- Teeth-cleaning treatments are performed to clean teeth and remove tartar deposits.
- A metal scaler is often used to scrape tartar off teeth surfaces during the appointment.
- Dental sealants are thin sheets of composite resin placed on the biting surfaces of teeth.
- Ther sealant forms a barrier that prevents bacteria and the acids that they make from getting to teeth.
Taking good care of your mouth makes you less likely to develop issues like toothaches, bleeding gums, or infected teeth. It helps keep your teeth looking their best and can lead to lower dental bills in the long run.
We Understand that when you Look Better, You feel Better. When you feel Better, You Smile more!
Applying sealant to a tooth can be completed in as little as 30 minutes. The procedure involves cleaning the patient’s tooth and using an etching solution to roughen it for the composite. The liquid composite is then painted onto the tooth before being hardened with ultraviolet light.
Nutritional Counseling
Dentists can provide guidance on maintaining a balanced diet to promote oral health and prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
Teaching Proper Oral Hygiene
Dentists and dental hygienists educate patients on proper brushing and flossing techniques to maintain optimal oral hygiene at home.
Regular Dental Checkups
Routine dental checkups, typically every six months, allow your dentist to monitor your oral health, detect any problems early, and provide necessary treatments.
Dental Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing may miss. This helps prevent gum disease and tooth decay.
