Preventive Dentistry Los Angeles

Preventive dentistry is all about keeping your smile healthy. You brush and floss your teeth regularly, but that may not be enough to protect your teeth from the oral bacteria lurking deep inside your mouth. Our Los Angeles preventive dentistry expert offers preventive dental care that can help you keep your smile looking and feeling its best.

Your at-home care is critical to a healthy mouth. The right tools are the first step. You need a soft-bristled toothbrush, fluoride toothpaste with the ADA seal, dental floss, and mouthwash. For the cleanest mouth, you need to brush at least twice a day or after meals. Try not to brush more than three times a day: This could damage the enamel on your teeth. Brush for about two minutes at a time holding your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle. Floss before or after brushing to remove plaque between your teeth, and after you are finished brushing, rinse your mouth with your preferred mouthwash or a prescription mouthwash as recommended by our Los Angeles preventive dentist.

No matter how well you take care of your teeth at home, you will still need a regular dental exam at least two times a year. These checkups give us an opportunity to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy, and that there is no sign of dental disease. We will examine your mouth for any abnormalities or symptoms. We may ask about your at-home routine or make recommendations to help you get better results from it. We may also ask about your diet, lifestyle habits, or medications. This is to help us better tailor your dental care to your needs. After a thorough cleaning and polishing of your teeth to remove plaque, tartar, and superficial stains, we will then make specific recommendations to help you get more out of your smile.

Our expert in preventive dentistry in Los Angeles may recommend dental sealants, fluoride treatments, more frequent cleanings, or other preventive treatments designed to reduce your risk of dental disease and keep your smile healthier longer.
