A preventive dentistry regime is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff, to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures, by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.
Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet. It is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health.
Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth.
Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
As a practice, we are true believers that preventive dental care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We strive to provide “dental health care” rather than “disease care”. That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall dental health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary. We also know that routine teeth cleaning, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease. Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health. A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.
Building a foundation of trust by treating our San Jose and surrounding area patients as special individuals is vital to our success. We understand how uneasy some patients may feel about their dental visits, and how we can make a difference in providing a relaxing, positive, and gentle dental experience. Dr. Madaan and their entire dental team are dedicated to providing you with excellent, personalized, care and service, to make your visits to Santa Teresa Family Dental as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
