Preventive Care
What is Preventive Care?
Preventive care in dentistry involves a proactive approach to maintaining oral health and preventing dental diseases. This includes regular dental check-ups, professional cleanings, and at-home oral hygiene practices. The goal of preventive care is to identify and address potential dental issues early, minimizing the need for more extensive and costly treatments later. At Delatite Dental, we emphasize the importance of preventive dental care to ensure our patients enjoy healthy, beautiful smiles for life.
Key Components of Preventive Care
Regular Dental Check-Ups
Routine dental exams, typically every six months, allow your dentist to monitor your oral health, identify any early signs of dental issues, and provide timely interventions.
Fluoride treatments
Fluoride treatments strengthen tooth enamel, making teeth more resistant to decay and cavities.
Oral cancer screenings
Regular screenings during dental check-ups help detect early signs of oral cancer, increasing the chances of successful treatment.
Professional Cleanings
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing might miss, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease.
Dental sealants
Sealants are protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities.
Patient education
Educating patients about proper oral hygiene practices and healthy dietary choices to maintain good oral health.
