Healthy teeth and gums are the foundation of oral health. We help you look after them with :
- Regular half-yearly check ups for teeth and gums
- Professional cleaning / prophylaxis
A periodic tooth cleaning is important for several reasons. It lets us remove the tartar and plaque that build up around your teeth, helping prevent periodontal disease. Also, when you come into our office on a regular basis, we can monitor the health of your teeth and gums and look for any signs of changes or problems.
Consistent, rather than occasional preventive maintenance is our goal for each patient. We always take extra time to show our patients the correct way to floss and brush (there is a right and a wrong way!). We explain why consistent care is so important and make patients fully aware of the consequences of neglecting their teeth. We explain how our preventive care treatments work and why they are so important.
