The importance of oral hygiene cannot be overstated. Unfortunately, many people are not properly brushing and cleaning their teeth due to a busy lifestyle or because they simply don’t have the time for it; this leaves them vulnerable when food gets stuck in your mouth (especially if you enjoy eating juicy meat dishes). At Smiles In Gainesville in Gainesville, TX, we offer options such as routine checkups that will ensure gum disease doesn’t arise! We also provide treatments like fluoride gel polishing sessions which help strengthen the enamel against future stains while adding an extra layer between yourself and cavities.
Preventative Care
To keep your teeth, gums, and tongue healthy you should brush twice a day. This will help prevent cavities in the long run by getting rid of bacteria between gaps where they can cause plaque or decay which leads to pain when eating sour foods like citrus juice because those acids irritate our sensitive linings more than normal contact would! You also want regular dental cleanings at Smiles in Gainesville. We will work to catch and prevent harmful bacteria from hurting your smile before they grow into serious dental concerns.
Healthy Habits
Keeping your mouth healthy is a lifelong commitment. It is better to adopt healthy oral hygiene habits early. However, no matter your age, it is never too late to begin your oral hygiene care. Minor adjustments in your daily routine can bear fruit and would save you the pain of having your teeth develop issues.
It’s never too early or late for a dental check-up. Your dentist will make sure your oral hygiene is up to mark, and they might even spot any potential problems before serious issues arise! Regular visits can give peace of mind. When the time comes, show off those pearly whites in person; we recommend getting an annual cleaning at our office so please don’t hesitate to schedule your appointment.
Fluoride Treatment
Our in-office fluoride treatment is an incredibly quick process that only lasts a few minutes. It gives your teeth extra protection from decay and cavities by strengthening them by coating a safe mineral found naturally within the mouth. Safety is our utmost priority, which is why we will advise you on products that are approved by the American Dental Association so that you can keep smiling strong.
Sealants
The way to avoid cavities and tooth decay are by practicing good dental hygiene, but this may not always be enough. Introducing sealants into your routine can help with an additional layer of protection that will make brushing easier while also providing smoother teeth for better aesthetics!
If you are looking to protect your newly formed permanent teeth, then dental sealants may be the perfect solution. Sealant treatments work by adding a tooth-colored plastic resin that sticks and solidifies into the grooves of one’s teeth, stopping bacteria from harming them. This can offer protection against future problems such as cavities or stains caused by food oils.
