Preventative dental care is the foundation for long-term oral health. Routine visits to your Fuller Dental dentist provide the opportunity for us to monitor your oral health and look for the early signs of a developing dental problem. Preventative care is one of the dental services that Fuller Dental provides to patients to help them avoid common dental problems.
From tooth decay to systemic disease, addressing problems early on often results in the best long-term result and the chance for conservative treatment to be effective.
Developing long-term relationships is one of the most important aspects of our practice – we treat our patients as members of our own families. That starts with educating our patients on the importance of general dental care.
When you visit our Burlington, NC dentist office, you’ll have one-on-one time with one of our dentists to discuss your dental concerns as well as your smile goals. They will perform a comprehensive examination to look for underlying problems and take time to explain the various treatment options that are available to you.
During your routine visit, you can expect:
- A thorough dental exam
- X-rays and diagnostics as needed
- A dental cleaning
- Fluoride treatment if necessary
- Screenings for cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, and other early oral signs of health concerns
Preventative dental care treatments we provide:
We will also offer personalized oral hygiene advice for keeping your smile looking good and feeling great between visits to our Burlington dentist office.
Most routine preventative visits take approximately one hour. We recommend that patients of all ages come in twice a year for routine dental care. Maintaining a healthy smile is an important part of your overall physical health and well-being. Your oral health can impact your physical health in many ways and also affects your confidence in your appearance.
Our team considers themselves a partner in your overall healthcare, taking the time to get to know you and understand your unique risk factors for many diseases or conditions. From gum disease and tooth decay to sleep apnea, we offer personalized care to meet your needs.
Fuller Dental is committed to comprehensive, patient-focused dental care and wants all patients to enjoy the many benefits of a healthy smile.
