Preventative Dentistry
In the absence of a good dental care routine, an invisible layer of bacteria will form on your teeth and gums. This is called plaque.
When you consume sugar, the plaque within your mouth turns the sugar into acid, which results in tooth decay. You can help to prevent dental decay by reducing the frequency and amount of sugary foods and drinks and by brushing your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste.
The presence of plaque also leads to gingivitis and gum disease. You can help prevent gingivitis and gum disease by cleaning all surfaces of your teeth thoroughly and effectively by brushing twice a day as well as cleaning in-between your teeth with interdental aids such as floss or interdental brushes.
Your dentist will be able to give you more detailed advice based on your own specific dental needs.You need to ensure that you make regular visits to your dentist or hygienist, so that they can recommend ways of maintaining a healthy mouth, such as using fluoride rinses, high fluoride toothpaste or flossing, and help maintain good oral health.
Regular check-ups can help prevent problems before they happen:

Benefits of Preventative Dentistry in Stanmore
Regular dental visits for children help in the early detection of dental problems such as cavities, misaligned teeth, and gum disease, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.
Routine cleanings and fluoride treatments remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Preventative dentistry includes education on effective brushing, flossing, and dietary habits, empowering patients to take control of their oral health.
Good oral health is linked to overall health, as dental problems can contribute to or exacerbate conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory issues. Preventative care helps protect your overall health.
Consistent preventative care lays the foundation for long-term oral health, reducing the likelihood of dental problems as you age.
