Your teeth are something that you want to last a lifetime. Preventive Dentistry is the modern way to keep your teeth in optimal condition and minimise the need for dental treatment.

Good dental hygiene is imperative at every age and it is something that will benefit everyone. It is never too early or too late to begin caring for your teeth and gums. The two major causes of tooth loss are: decay and periodontal (gum) disease. Through good dental hygiene we can prevent these conditions or deal with them in a quick and easy manner.

Our top tips for a healthy vibrant smile, include:

Brush your teeth twice a day (after breakfast and dinner)
Use a soft, rounded bristle toothbrush
Floss in between your teeth once a day
Visit the Dentist every six months for a routine examination and clean
Replace your toothbrush every three to four months or after an illness
Use toothpaste with added fluoride
Attend Periodontal check-ups and oral cancer screenings
Avoid tobacco products and excessive alcohol consumption
Reduce the amount of acidity in your diet
Eat a healthy diet, get enough rest and exercise

We generally recommend that you visit the Dentist every six months for a thorough examination and clean. During these appointments, Dr. Parrag will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and gums. She will talk with you about your current dental health and recommend steps to improve dental health and overall well-being.
