Oral Hygiene & Preventive Dental Care
At Revelstoke Dental Centre in Revelstoke, BC, we believe in preventive care for optimal oral health. This is why we provide a strong preventive oral hygiene program, that incorporates a healthy diet, dental cleanings, fluoride treatments and an at-home oral hygiene routine.
What is Preventive Dental Care?
Preventive dental care is oral health care that involves education, treatment and the practice of maintaining the health of teeth and gums. From daily brushing to annual dental cleanings, these tasks are designed to avoid gum disease, cavities and enamel wear – which often leads to sensitivity and other dental health problems.
A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental team to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures via preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and harmful oral conditions. Preventing dental problems starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.
It is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health. Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are can be great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth.
