What is Preventive Dentistry And How Does It Help?

You may wonder why it’s important to come in to see the dentist every six months for regular dental checkups, especially if you haven’t had a cavity or dental issue before. In reality, dental health is a collaborative effort! Just as a six month oil change keeps your car running smoothly, a six month cleaning from your dentist allows for a professional assessment of your oral health using advanced dental treatment methods. At your six month cleaning and exam, Tysons preventative dentist Dr. Naik is able to provide gentle treatment to support positive memories at the dentist and more confident visits with healthier teeth and smiles.

Our Services in Preventive Dentistry

We work tirelessly to support our patients with dental care that is gentle and effective. At your six month cleaning we may use various preventive treatments to support your oral and overall health:

Dental Cleaning: By removing the tough-to-reach buildup of plaque, bacteria and other dental calculus or tartar around the teeth, it is not allowed to break down the enamel or cause tooth decay or gum disease. In circumstances where gum disease or periodontal disease is present below the gum line, scaling and root planing (or deep cleaning) is used to carefully remove the causes of inflammation or swelling and prevent larger dental issues from occuring.

• Dental Cleaning: By removing the tough-to-reach buildup of plaque, bacteria and other dental calculus or tartar around the teeth, it is not allowed to break down the enamel or cause tooth decay or gum disease. In circumstances where gum disease or periodontal disease is present below the gum line, scaling and root planing (or deep cleaning) is used to carefully remove the causes of inflammation or swelling and prevent larger dental issues from occuring.
• ‍Digital Dental X-rays: At Priti Naik DDS, digital x-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film x-rays for a more safe and comprehensive assessment of each patient’s dental health.
• ‍Gum Disease & Sore Gum Therapy: If you have noticed any symptoms of gum disease, such as reddened gums, gums that bleed after brushing, or receding gum tissue that exposes more of the tooth structure, our team offers periodontal treatments. After treatment patients may experience less inflammation of the gums, reduced risks for periodontal disease and lessened redness or discomfort around the gums and teeth. Gum disease affects a majority of adults in America today. To best treat and prevent this chronic condition, brush and floss regularly and attend your biannual dental visits!
• ‍Dental Fillings: Our composite resin tooth-colored fillings look and feel natural. They can be dyed to match the color of your existing teeth and keep your smile healthy for years. Used to restore tooth decay such as cavities (dental caries) or to replace amalgam or silver fillings, our dental fillings are sure to make you smile.
