Preventive Dental Care and Oral Hygiene
Good oral hygiene involves keeping your smile healthy through regular dental visits and consistent care at home. Routine checkups help ensure your teeth and gums remain strong and healthy for years to come.
Our team will partner with you to provide comprehensive preventive care and guide you on how to maintain your smile at home using the dental products best suited for you and your family.
Professional Dental Cleanings and Checkups
Regular dental checkups play a vital role in maintaining your oral health. During a routine visit, your dental hygienist will:
- Examine your mouth for potential issues that may not be visible or noticeable
- Check for cavities and early signs of tooth decay
- Evaluate your teeth and gums for gingivitis and indications of periodontal disease
- Provide a complete professional cleaning, including scaling, rinsing, and polishing
Visiting our office every six months allows you to ask any questions about your oral health and get personalized guidance. Regular checkups also give you the opportunity to learn about new treatments that can help enhance and protect your smile.
Selecting the Right Toothbrush and Toothpaste
From toothpaste and mouthwash to toothbrushes and dental floss, using the right products is key to keeping your smile healthy. When selecting a new toothpaste or toothbrush, look for the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval. Dr. Lodhi or Dr. Bally can also provide personalized recommendations for dental products to use at home.
