At-Home Prevention
The primary way to protect your teeth and prevent decay is to be taking care of your teeth at home. It is recommended that people brush their teeth twice a day, for two minutes each session and flossing. Brushing and flossing ensure that plaque and food particles are removed from your teeth at the beginning and end of each day. This will significantly reduce the chances of cavities developing. .
Benefits From Preventative Dentistry
- Preventing decay from starting or progressing will protect you from total tooth replacement or severe tooth restoration expenses. As soon as decay is diagnosed, taking action will save you money and time.
- We only get one set of natural teeth. By keeping your natural teeth clean and protected, they will last longer and stay stronger.
- By keeping your teeth clean, you’re reducing your risk of oral diseases such as periodontal disease, which can severely damage your teeth and tissues.
