A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.  Our office has an aggressive program for preventing tooth decay, there is a science behind it.  Let us show you how to take control of your dental future.

Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.  It is continued in the dental office with additional preventive measures.

Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth.  Xylitol, a sugar substitute, has been shown to effectively fight dental decay.  We can show you how this works.

Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
