Maintaining a healthy smile starts with preventive dentistry—a proactive approach to keeping your teeth and gums in top condition. At Sutton Place Dental Associates, we emphasize preventive dental care to stop oral health issues before they develop, saving you time, money, and discomfort in the long run.

What Is Preventive Dentistry?

Preventive dentistry focuses on routine oral care to protect against tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental concerns. Regular check-ups, cleanings, and at-home care are essential in preserving your natural smile.

Key Preventive Dental Services

1. Regular Dental Exams & Cleanings

Scheduling biannual dental check-ups allows our team to detect early signs of cavities, gum disease, and other oral issues. Professional cleanings remove plaque buildup that brushing and flossing may miss.

2. Fluoride Treatments & Dental Sealants

• Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel, reducing the risk of cavities.
• Dental sealants protect hard-to-reach molars from decay, making them especially beneficial for children.

3. At-Home Oral Hygiene Education

A strong oral hygiene routine is key to preventing dental problems. Our dentists provide guidance on proper brushing, flossing, and dietary choices to support your oral health.

4. Gum Disease Prevention

Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss. Preventive care, including deep cleanings and periodontal maintenance, helps keep your gums healthy and free from infection.

5. Customized Preventive Care Plans

Every patient has unique dental needs. We offer personalized preventive dentistry plans, ensuring the best care for children, adults, and seniors.
