What is Considered Preventative Dental Care?

Preventative dentistry is the dental practice of caring for your oral health to maintain a healthy smile for a lifetime – and therefore improve your overall general health, too! Preventative oral care and good habits help you avoid dental problems later on, such as cavities, gingivitis, enamel loss, and periodontitis. It is recommended to visit a dental hygienist twice a year for cleaning and a checkup to best prevent any dental health issues. 

Types of Preventative Dentistry We Provide

Our dental team will use a combination of techniques and tools to ensure your mouth is staying happy and healthy. Our preventative dental care services include: 

• Professional cleanings
• Fluoride treatments
• Sealant applied to permanent molars
• Diagnostics tools such as oral evaluations and x-rays used to catch any signs of oral problems early
• Educational instruction on best oral care practices such as proper brushing technique, the best toothpaste to use, how to floss correctly, etc.
• And more to help prevent any and all oral problems.

Does Dental Insurance Cover Preventative Care?

Most dental insurances prioritize providing quality dental care as part of their plans because of the crucial role it plays in overall oral and general health. As a result, preventative dental services are often fully covered with only minimal or no deductibles or copays, meaning little out-of-pocket costs. In some cases, too, preventative dental care is not counted against your annual maximum for your plan.
