Preventative
Dentistry
We emphasize the fight against
gum disease because it is the silent killer of teeth. Patients
who brush and floss regularly can still have gum disease,
which is why regular check-ups are so important. However,
we make a point of being non-judgmental with our patients
who have not been to the dentist for a while. We understand
sometimes it is not possible to go every six months and we
will treat you with compassion.
The prevention of dental problems
is always a more favorable alternative to actually treating
them when it’s too late. That’s why we place
so much emphasis on our diagnostic and preventative treatments,
including thorough examinations and dental hygiene services.
Clean and healthy teeth and gums
are an important aspect of overall well being. We encourage
you to attend for routine maintenance appointments so we can
ensure that you maintain a fresh and healthy smile at all
times.
Of course,
prevention can’t
take care of existing conditions. That’s where our restorative
services come in. But, even in such cases, we concentrate
on problem solving for the long run, rather than on doing
short-term ‘fix-ups”. We have the experience
to choose the best treatment between various options, knowing
not only what will get the job done, but what will give you
lasting dental health.
