Preventative Dentistry

Preventive dentistry involves education, treatment and the practice of maintaining your teeth and gums. Taking care of your teeth requires more than just daily brushing and flossing. For complete care, it’s important to visit your dentist every six months for a regular checkup and professional cleaning. Practicing effective preventative dentistry helps to reduce the risk and severity of gum disease, gum recession, sensitivity, cavities and other common dental conditions.
