Why Preventive Care Matters for Your Oral Health

Preventive dentistry isn’t just about clean teeth—it’s about protecting your long-term health. By keeping up with regular visits and early intervention, we can prevent common dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, and even oral cancer. 

At Dentistry@1881, we offer preventive care for the whole family so that every smile is supported by our experienced team.

Dental Checkups & Professional Cleanings

Routine dental visits are the cornerstone of effective preventive care. These checkups help us keep an eye on your oral health and identify any early signs of problems before they become serious issues. During each visit, you’ll receive:

Preventive Oral Examinations

At Dentistry@1881, we recommend visiting the dentist every six months for a dental checkup. These routine appointments play a vital role in maintaining not just your oral health, but your overall well-being, too.
During your checkup, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, jaw, and bite for any signs of issues such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. Taking X-rays might be included if needed to detect problems that aren’t visible to the naked eye. This thorough exam helps catch potential problems early, when they’re easier and less costly to treat.

Oral Cancer Screening

Your health is our top priority, including the early detection of serious conditions like oral cancer. That’s why every routine dental checkup and cleaning appointment includes an oral cancer screening, performed by both your dentist and dental hygienist. During the screening, we carefully examine your mouth, lips, tongue, throat, gums, and the surrounding tissues for any abnormalities or signs of concern. Early detection is key, and regular screenings help ensure that any issues are identified and addressed as early as possible.
Oral cancer screenings are quick, painless, and an essential part of protecting your overall health.

Preventative Dental Hygiene Cleaning

Your dental hygienist focuses on the preventive side of care by removing plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing can’t reach, and polishing your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile fresh and clean. Your gum health will be checked and pocket depths will be measured to detect early signs of gum disease. Your hygienist will offer you tips and personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and home care.

This deep cleaning helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath, and contributes to a healthier smile.

These visits are essential for keeping your smile bright and healthy.

Fluoride Treatments: The Key to Cavity-Resistant Teeth

Fluoride treatment is a safe, effective way to help prevent tooth decay and strengthen your enamel and reduces tooth sensitivity. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps rebuild weakened tooth enamel and makes teeth more resistant to decay.

At our office, we offer professional fluoride applications as part of our preventive dental care, especially for children, teens, and adults who may be more prone to cavities, including individuals with dry mouth or reduced saliva flow, patients wearing braces or other orthodontic appliances.

Nightguards for Teeth Grinding

Do you wake up with jaw pain or headaches? You could be grinding your teeth at night, a condition known as bruxism. Teeth grinding can lead to tooth damage, jaw pain, and even broken teeth.

At Dentistry@1881, we offer custom-fit nightguards that protect your teeth while you sleep. These appliances act as a cushion between your teeth, preventing harmful grinding and helping preserve your smile for years to come.

At-Home Oral Hygiene Products

At Dentistry@1881, we know that oral hygiene doesn’t stop when you leave our office. To level up your home care routine, we provide personalized recommendations for oral hygiene products

Whether you need toothpaste, toothbrushes, floss, or mouthwash, we can help you choose the products that best suit your specific needs.
