Preventative Dentistry at Morton Dental
Preventative oral healthcare aims at avoiding, reversing and addressing dental problems while they’re in the earliest stages. With a great dental team on your side and proven oral hygiene strategies, you and your family can enjoy healthy teeth that last a lifetime.
Preventative Services
- Scale and Cleans — Book a checkup every six months to have your teeth cleaned and screened for early signs of disease. Regular preventative care is one of the most important steps in avoiding costly and extensive dental work.
- Fissure Sealants — How would you like to prevent cavities before they start? Fissure sealants block out decay-causing bacteria in some of your smile’s most susceptible areas. We recommend sealants on your child’s 6- and 12-year molars, which erupt around each of those respective ages.
- Oral Hygiene — Get tips and strategies on how great home care can make all the difference in the health of your smile’s future. Customised advice will help you to lower your risk of gum disease, cavities and tooth loss.
Most Dental Problems Are Preventable
Gum disease and tooth decay are some of the biggest oral health challenges that families face. Fortunately, they’re both preventable. But it’s important to have an excellent family dentist and oral health therapist on your side, screening for symptoms before they’re noticeable.
During your checkups, we’ll evaluate at-risk areas, offer advice on how to reverse early symptoms and more. That way you have the resources necessary to stop cavities and gum problems before they start forming.
How Often Should I See a Dentist?
We recommend checkups every six months if your teeth and gums are healthy. At this frequency, we’re able to step in early enough should buildup start to accumulate or enamel demineralisation begin. For people recovering from gum disease, we advise making an appointment every 3-4 months to prevent relapse and unwanted bone loss.
