Preventative Dentistry
Regular examinations at Viewpoint Dentistry are essential to promoting good oral and dental health by detecting problems before they get worse, or preventing them altogether. There is a direct relationship between oral health and systemic health conditions. Among the systemic conditions that are impacted by oral health are atherosclerotic disease which is the primary cause of most cases of heart attacks and strokes, pulmonary disease, diabetes, pregnancy complications and preterm, low-birth-weight infants, osteoporosis, and kidney disease. Routine and regular dental care not only prevents periodontal disease but also helps patients lower risk for these more serious systemic conditions. Below are some of the preventive services that our practice offers.
Cleaning, X-rays and Exams
Regular examinations, by Dr. Snow, help detect and prevent health issues before they become serious. Consistent dental check-ups help catch problems when they are small and easier to treat.
Fluoride Treatment & Sealants
Applying a fluoride varnish protects a child’s primary (first) teeth from decay. Once children have their permanent teeth, dental sealants may be applied for the protection of the back teeth or molars.
Gum Disease Therapy
Gum disease is an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. The treatment methods that our dentists diagnose will depend upon the type of disease and how far the condition has progressed.
