What Preventive Dental Care Includes
Preventive care is the ongoing, everyday work of keeping your smile healthy — both at home and in our office. It generally combines the habits you practice between visits with the professional care our team provides during routine appointments. At-Home Care: Good home care is the foundation of prevention. Brushing and flossing consistently, eating a tooth-friendly diet, and paying attention to changes in your mouth all help protect your teeth and gums between professional visits. Professional Care in Our Office: Routine visits to our office let our dentist and team provide the professional care that complements your home routine. If it has been a while since your last visit, we welcome you to call and schedule an appointment.
