Preventative Dentistry

As with any other kind of health issues, prevention is better than cure. Pedro offers a preventative dentistry programme that emphasises the importance of preventing future dental problems via a combination of daily oral hygiene practises and ongoing hygiene visits.

Effective preventative dentistry will help avert tooth decay, oral disease, and other avoidable dental issues.

Not only is prevention better for your teeth, but it’s also better for your pocket. It’s always more cost-effective to prevent an issue or treat it in its early stages than it is to have restorative treatment. A preventative plan includes:

• Regular oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing and gum care
• Fluoride treatments to strengthen teeth and prevent decay
• A diet to maximise nutrition and calcium and minimise sugar intake
• Regular dentist visits
• Deep cleaning to remove plaque and stains
• X-rays to detect problems below the surface of the tooth and gums
• Protective mouthguards for patients who play sports
• Correcting misalignment with orthodontic aids like braces

Pedro can help you design a preventative dentistry plan to help you protect your smile, your overall oral health and your overall well-being.
