Did you know that 60-90% of children worldwide, and nearly 100% of adults have dental cavities? It's true! But don't worry - your risk of tooth decay is significantly lowered with proper oral care. At the office of Stunning Smiles, we offer a comprehensive selection of preventive and dental services to help patients of all ages maintain optimal oral health.
Tooth decay happens when dental plaque isn't removed regularly from around your teeth and gums. Your risk for cavities also increases if you have a diet high in sugary sweets, acidic foods, and drinks. Other factors that can increase your risk of tooth decay include dry mouth, teeth grinding, receding gums, and deeply grooved dental enamel.
As experienced dental care providers, we emphasize the importance of preventive measures in maintaining optimal oral health. Regular checkups are crucial for early detection and treatment of dental disease. While cavities can be almost entirely prevented, it's essential to treat any developing tooth decay as soon as possible to avoid further damage and more severe consequences to your oral health and overall well-being.
When you visit our office for a checkup, you can rest assured that your teeth are in the best of hands. We use advanced dental technology and techniques to carefully evaluate your oral health, including an examination of your teeth, gums, and jaw for any signs of dental disease or developing problems. Every exam performed by our dentist also includes a thorough, professional teeth cleaning to remove any accumulations of plaque or tartar that you may have missed while brushing or flossing. We'll also review your home care routine and offer guidance on how you can clean and care for your teeth more effectively between checkups.
Although tooth decay is a common concern, it's possible to prevent cavities with regular dental visits. At the office of Stunning Smiles, we provide personalized, state-of-the-art solutions for all your dental healthcare needs. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, call today.
