Preventative Dentistry
HEALTH SERVICES BUSINESS OF THE YEAR
At Dental Boutique, we are devoted to you and your family’s overall oral heatlh. Are part of this dedication and commitment we suggest and provide a range of treatments for your family. These treatments are all provided to ensure that any future problems are caught in their early stages, or before they form, protecting you from worsening health or extensive costs for treatment.
As part of our restorative and family dentistry services we offer a range of treatments, these can include:
Dental Check-ups
These appointments include a check and clean to ensure gums are healthy, plaque and tartar is removed, any decay within teeth is found and suitable treatments organised.
Fillings, Fissure Sealants and Fluoride
Fillings work to fill developing decay within the tooth to ensure it does not progress and worsen. Fissure Sealants and Flouride treatments can be applied to teeth as an early measure to deter any such decay from forming. This is often to teeth identified as a possible risk for developing decay in the future due to their shape or form.
Tooth Extractions
If the tooth has been left too long and the decay has developed too far for simple treatments to correct, a tooth extraction may be needed. These are sometimes completed if a tooth is causing extensive pain that other treatments cannot fix, or if the tooth is at risk of damaging other teeth, bone or soft tissues.
Why are these preventive and family dentistry treatments necessary?
Research has shown that the potential for health problems increases significantly in people with poor oral health. Bad dental hygiene or untreated problems such as gum disease can lead to higher risk in other parts of your body. Some of the findings include:
- People with gum disease are two times more likely to develop coronary artery heart disease
- People with gum disease have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke
- People suffering diabetes and periodontal disease are more susceptible to health problems due to an increase in blood sugar
- People with hygiene issues have a higher risk of developing Alzheimers Disease
We only see a few patients a day as we are committed to providing individualised attention to each patient that visits Dental Boutique. We want you to get the care and attention you need to ensure a positive experience here. Regular dental appointments will help us identify any potential oral problems in the early stages, to avoid more costly and invasive treatment.
