People neglect professional dental care for many reasons. A busy schedule, dental anxiety, and costly treatments can keep people away from the dental chair. However, professional dental care is key to keeping your smile in good health in the long term. There’s no better place than Humber Valley Dental for quality dental services at affordable costs. Dr. Geeta Gautham, your local dentist in the Caledon, Ontario, area, answers your questions about professional dental care here.
Professional dental care complements home oral care by providing extra protection against dental problems like decay and gum disease. Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing may miss, protecting your tooth and gum health. Dr. Gautham offers preventive and restorative dental treatments that can keep your smile going strong over the years to prevent premature tooth loss. Your Caledon dentist plays a key role in preventing dental issues, detecting problems quicker, and providing the best treatment to maintain or restore your oral health.Â
Dr. Gautham and our team offer preventive services like routine exams, dental X-rays, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants. If problems arise, we can correct them with treatments like dental crowns to repair damaged teeth, implants and bridges to replace missing teeth, root canals to stop oral infections and periodontal therapy to curtail gum disease. We also offer cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, dental bonding and orthodontics to improve your smile’s esthetics. Â
Generally, we recommend that you visit our office twice annually for routine checkups and dental cleanings. That way, we can monitor your oral health, catch problems early, and prevent small problems from escalating into major issues that require long, costly treatments. Children can start seeing Dr. Gautham and the team at the appearance of their first teeth or around the age of 12 months so we can start monitoring their oral health early.Â
Working closely with Dr. Gautham and our team can help keep dental issues to a minimum. Maintaining a good oral hygiene routine at home is also important by brushing twice daily and flossing before bedtime to remove food particles stuck between your teeth. A healthy diet will contribute to good oral health, as will reducing your intake of sugary and acidic foods and drinks. Other habits that can help are drinking plenty of water daily, using an anti-bacterial rinse, and quitting smoking.Â
If you experience pain, gum bleeding, shifting teeth, or other problems between dental visits, contact us right away so we can offer prompt and effective treatment to prevent your condition from worsening.
