A dental preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to help ensure good oral health and prevent serious problems from forming. Prevention of 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. Comprehensive dental exams, professional cleanings, x-rays, sealants and fluoride are preventive treatments used regularly.
A preventive approach to dentistry saves money and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
