General Dentistry

Good dental health requires regular, twice daily cleaning and regular dental visits. We recommend visiting a dentist at least once every 6 months. Regular tooth cleaning can make these visits a quick and painless procedure, preventing most dental problems and the discomfort of serious procedures.

Early detection of dental issues can prevent damage and tooth loss. Any pain or signs of change in the mouth should be checked by a dentist immediately. Some dental problems are not initially obvious, only exhibiting pain when they have already undergone serious developments. The importance of regular dental check-ups becomes obvious when the elusive nature of these problems is understood. Early detection prevents problems becoming serious.

Regular dental visits every six months will include tooth cleaning and polishing. These treatments not only clean the teeth but leave them so smooth that bacteria are unable to stick to them. Deposits of tartar, hardened plaque are removed either manually or with ultrasonic methods, and the teeth are then polished with prophylaxis paste. Fluoride is also applied should the tooth enamel require strengthening. These treatments work with your regular cleaning to prevent dental problems.
