Preventive Dentistry Protects Your Smile
Preventive teeth cleans and checks are one of the ways we help our patients protect their smiles and maintain their dental health. When you’re consistent about visiting our dental clinic every six months, we can spot issues like tooth decay and gum disease early before they become more significant concerns. Early detection means you can be proactive about treating concerns with minimally invasive procedures, and it's less strain on your time and budget.
Guard Your Smile Against Gum Disease
Periodontal (gum) disease is a prevalent problem in adults over age 30 and is the leading cause of their tooth loss. It is an infection of your teeth’s primary support system, which are your gums and jawbone. Gum disease can slowly damage and destroy them over time, resulting in tooth loss.
Gum disease also contributes to other non-dental health concerns like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and even dementia. The bacteria that cause gum disease enter the bloodstream and can travel around the body, contributing to the inflammation that causes these other concerns and vice versa.
Routine checks and teeth cleanings in Lower Plenty help us guard your smile against gum disease because we can detect it early before it becomes more problematic.
Tooth-coloured Restorations for A Natural Look
Whether you have old amalgam (silver) fillings that need replacing or a tooth smaller dental issues, such as cavities or minor chips, we can effectively address these with tooth-coloured fillings. These restorations are crafted from a composite resin material that blends seamlessly with the surrounding tooth structure. This ensures that your fillings are virtually undetectable, allowing you to maintain a flawless, natural-looking smile.
