Why Preventative Dentistry is Important?

 

Good oral health is important for overall health. Preventive dental care aims to lower your oral health risks so you can avoid developing tooth decay and gum disease and related health problems.

 

MAINTAINING YOUR ORAL HYGIENE

 

Preventative dentistry focuses on practices and procedures that help prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Some key aspects of preventative dentistry include:

1. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings.
2. Brushing and flossing teeth regularly.
3. Using fluoride toothpaste and mouthwash.
4. Limiting sugary and acidic foods and drinks.
5. Avoiding tobacco products.
6. Using a mouth guard during sports.
7. Sealing teeth with dental sealants (especially for children).
8. Monitoring for signs of oral cancer.

By following above practices, you can help prevent oral health problems and maintain a healthy, beautiful smile for years to come!

The Australian Dental Association recommends seeing a dentist every six to nine months for your routine check-up and clean.
