The term Preventive Dentistry includes all of the tools, education, and care that is designed to help you to keep your teeth for life. This includes good oral health habits, regular dental check ups, and oral hygiene education. Preventive dentisty is a proactive approach to care, rather than reactive.

Key preventive services include:

Regualr dental check-ups

3D scans, digital xrays, or other diagnostic tools to catch issues early x-rays and diagnostics to spot hidden issues early
Dental sealants and fluoride treatments to protect and strengthen teeth Fluoride treatments and sealants to protect vulnerable teeth
Oral hygiene instruction and education surrounding brushing and flossing, diet and lifestyle.
