Preventive Dentistry

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Preventative dentistry finds the cause of the problem and treats it, before it advances to a later stage.

Using the latest technologies, we prevent any new dental problems, from gum disease, decay or occlusion. This ensures we avoid ongoing dental diseases and complex work in the future. The following are the preventive dentistry measures we recommend to follow. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Examination

Examination appointments are regular check-ups, involving a thorough examination of all teeth.

Dental X-Rays

Dental X-rays are complementary to every dental check-up, and help the dentist detect hidden problems.

Cleaning and Polishing

Regular cleanings are mandatory in preserving a healthy smile, ideally performed every 9 months.

Preventative Fillings

Preventative fillings, or sealants, are coatings covering the grooves of molar and preventing the accumulation of food and bacteria

Patient Education

Dental maintenance starts as soon as the first tooth appears. Learning the right brushing technique is a life-long skill.
