Some of our preventive services include:
Preventive dentistry may not completely remove the need for a future filling, root canal therapy, or other treatment. However, it can reduce the likelihood of early tooth loss or expensive procedures by catching problems early.
The earlier you begin to develop good daily habits, the better your oral health will be throughout your lifetime. It is essential to teach children proper brushing techniques as soon as they are old enough to brush their teeth on their own. Preventive care is also crucial for older adults even if they no longer have their natural teeth or wear dentures.
Research has shown that there is a systemic link between oral health and overall health. Having periodontal disease could increase the risk of developing serious health conditions. Be sure to talk to Dr. Stallings to learn more about this potential health risk, especially if you already have or are predisposed to heart disease, respiratory conditions, or diabetes.
