The professionals at Deering Dental are always prepared to treat advanced dental problems, but we’d rather help you prevent the pain and risk factors associated with gum disease and tooth decay if at all possible. Our personalized plans for preventive care take your particular history and needs into account so that we can deliver the oral hygiene coaching and cutting-edge care options you need to maintain optimal oral health and a brilliant smile.
The best oral care begins with a comprehensive at-home regimen, including frequent brushing, flossing, and rinsing with mouthwash, paired with regular professional visits to your preferred Palmetto family dentistry location for examination, cleaning, x-rays, and more. At Deering Dental, we employ the latest technologies and techniques, including intra-oral cameras, laser cavity detection, and hi-res digital x-rays to detect gum disease and tooth decay early so that we can treat before minor issues become major snafus.
Even with a strict oral hygiene regimen, you can’t hope to get at all of the leftover food and bacteria that stick to your teeth and migrate below the gum line. In time, the buildup of biofilm will harden into plaque and tartar deposits that eat away at your tooth enamel, irritate soft tissues to create pockets of infection, and eventually result in gum disease and tooth decay.
Regular dental visits for cleanings can help to remove plaque and tartar buildup on the surfaces of teeth and below the gum line to prevent serious oral health concerns like gingivitis, periodontitis, abscesses, and tooth loss, just for example. Whether you need standard, gentle cleanings or you require a deep clean periodically, the experienced and attentive professionals at Deering Dental can offer the individual care you need to maintain optimal oral health.
