Preventive Dentistry
The real goal of preventive dentistry is to maintain oral health.
The preventive dentistry program that we
offer consists of education for homecare practices, thorough examination and
early interception of oral disease and structural compromises with predictable
treatment modalities.
We aim to prevent the effects of dental
disease from becoming cosmetic or comfort problems.
Preventing periodontal disease, bad
breath and tooth decay means spending time with the hygienist and following her
recommendations for oral homecare.
Preventing broken, worn, or sore teeth
means making a plan with Dr. Hansford. He certainly does not have a
crystal ball to tell the future, but he can easily provide a maintenance
schedule to fix any teeth that are more than likely going to be a future
problem.
