Preventative care starts at home with daily brushing and flossing — and is reinforced by routine professional care at Turnagain Dental. For children, it allows permanent teeth to grow in strong and healthy. For adults, it helps preserve natural teeth and avoid costly restorations.
What Preventative Dentistry Prevents
- Cavities and tooth decay
- Gum disease and tooth loss
- Jawbone deterioration and an aged facial appearance
- Bad breath from food and bacteria
- Expensive, intrusive dental care down the line
- A crooked, unattractive smile
- A dysfunctional, painful bite
- Severe toothache from decay or infection
- Extremely worn teeth
Linked to Whole-Body Health
Experts increasingly link oral health to overall well-being. Poor oral health has been associated with heart disease, respiratory disease, diabetes and cancer. Women with poor oral health are also more likely to give birth prematurely. Good preventative habits protect more than your smile.
