About the service
4th Floor Dental believes that prevention is key to avoiding dental issues and achieving a healthy, beautiful smile for life. Here's how we focus on preventive care to keep your teeth and gums in top condition:
Regular Dental Check-ups:
We recommend scheduling regular dental check-ups every six months or as advised by our dental team. During these visits, our dentists will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. We check for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and other oral health concerns. Early detection allows for timely intervention and prevents problems from worsening.
Professional Dental Cleanings:
Professional dental cleanings are an essential part of preventive care. Our skilled dental hygienists use specialized tools to remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth. Even with diligent at-home oral hygiene, some areas can be difficult to clean thoroughly without professional assistance. Regular cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.
Digital X-rays and Diagnostic Imaging:
We use advanced digital X-rays and other diagnostic imaging techniques to obtain detailed images of your teeth, jawbone, and oral structures. These images help us detect issues such as cavities, infections, impacted teeth, and bone abnormalities that may not be visible during a visual examination alone. Early detection enables us to address problems promptly and effectively.
Oral Health Education:
Our team believes in empowering patients with knowledge about proper oral hygiene practices. During your visits, we provide personalized oral health education, including guidance on brushing techniques, flossing, dietary recommendations for dental health, and lifestyle habits that promote a healthy mouth. We address any concerns you may have and answer your questions to help you maintain good oral hygiene habits at home.
Dental Sealants and Fluoride Treatments:
For added protection against cavities, especially in molars and premolars, we offer dental sealants. Sealants are thin coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of teeth to seal off grooves and pits where bacteria and food particles can accumulate. Additionally, fluoride treatments strengthen tooth enamel and help prevent tooth decay. We may recommend these preventive measures based on your individual needs.
Customized Preventive Plans:
Our dental team creates personalized preventive care plans tailored to your unique oral health needs and goals. Whether you're at a higher risk of developing certain dental conditions or have specific concerns, we develop a plan that includes regular check-ups, cleanings, and additional preventive treatments as necessary.
