A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist,
and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting
structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental
diseases and conditions.
Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and
a balanced diet. It is continued in the dental office by the efforts
of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain
your oral health.
Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays.
Sealants and fluoride are also great preventive treatments that help
protect the teeth.
Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the
key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
"I had a great time with you and your staff during my appointment. You are the first dentist I’ve had who followed through with the saying, “You won’t feel a thing!"
