The Importance of Preventative Dental Treatment

Preventative dentistry means maintaining your oral health to prevent disease. For children this includes:

• Making sure your child has a Dentist by their first birthday
• Brushing and flossing
• A balanced, healthy diet
• Fluoride treatment
• Monitoring oral growth and development
• Sealants
• Oral health education
• Assessing risk for developing cavities
• Protection against injuries
• Managing oral habits
• Guiding the erupting teeth

There is more and more clinical evidence that oral health affects general health.  Oral problems can interfere with eating, speaking, self-esteem and daily activities.  Extensive decay can affect development and growth.  Children experiencing tooth pain may not be able to focus on their studies at school.  A healthy smile is more attractive, which positively impacts confidence.  Most importantly, preventative dentistry results in less extensive and less expensive dental care in the future.
