Frequently asked questions
What does preventative dentistry include?

Preventative dentistry includes regular dental cleanings and exams, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, oral cancer screenings, and patient education on proper brushing and flossing techniques. It also involves nutritional advice and lifestyle counselling to maintain oral health.

How often should I have a professional dental cleaning?

Professional dental cleanings are recommended every six months. Regular cleanings help remove plaque and tartar buildup, prevent gum disease and keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Are dental sealants only for children?

While dental sealants are commonly applied to children's teeth to protect against cavities, adults can also benefit from them, especially if they have deep grooves or pits in their molars that are prone to decay.
