Preventative Dentistry
Plaque is the bacterial film which accumulates on and around teeth and causes gum disease and tooth decay. The removal of plaque through effective home care will help prevent dental problems.
Unfortunately, some people have accepted the idea that they will inevitably lose their teeth as they grow older and consequently they fail to make efforts to save them. The child who only sees a dentist when he has a toothache will lose eight times more permanent teeth that a child who has regular dental care.
Periodic examinations, dental cleanings and fluoride application and proper home care are the foundation upon which good dental health is built.
