Preventive Care

Preventive dental care consists of practices aimed at preventing any dental issues from ever starting. It is concerned with maintaining oral health by scheduled checkups, professional cleaning, fluoride treatments, and usage of sealants. Moreover, proper brushing, flossing, and good diets are essential parts. To avoid cavities, gum diseases, and other dental conditions at OHM Dental, we talk about preventive care.

For preventive care, a person is usually advised to visit the dentist every six months for routine checkups and cleanings. This helps catch potential issues early, maintains oral health, and prevents problems such as cavities and gum disease. Your dentist may recommend more frequent visits depending on your specific dental needs.

Sealants are thin, protective coatings that are applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth. They are especially good for children and teenagers since their molars are particularly vulnerable to decay. Even adults with deep grooves on their teeth can benefit from this since they protect against decay. They are quick, painless, and highly effective at preventing cavities.

Signs of gum disease are red, swollen gums; bleeding during brushing or flossing; bad breath; and receding gums. Gum disease can be prevented through good oral hygiene: brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing daily, eating a balanced diet, and visiting your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings. Healthy gums depend on early detection and treatment.

Results from teeth whitening can last from a few months to some years, depending on how the patient takes care of the oral cavity, diet, and lifestyle.

Dental fillings are used to restore damaged or decayed teeth. These help in the restoration of the shape, strength, and function of the tooth. Fillings are required when cavities are found, which require the removal of the rotten part of the tooth. Fillings materials include composite resins, porcelain, or metal, depending on where the cavity is located or its size. To learn more about fillings and their options, visit OHM Dental for the best advice and treatment plans.

A dental crown is a cap placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance.

Crowns are put to protect the tooth from any more damage and improve the functionality of the tooth. Here at OHM Dental, we have customized crowns that are the best fit for you in terms of durability.
