We also make available a variety of services to ensure we detect your cavity right away, so we can provide you with a dental filling to restore your tooth. By becoming familiar with your options, your fight against cavity formation will become a whole lot easier.
Practice Consistent Preventive Care
Avoiding tooth decay is truly as simple as practicing excellent preventive care. This is not just limited to your home hygiene but to everything that goes into keeping your teeth and gums free of plaque. Use the following guidelines to promote a cavity-free smile:
- Brush two times a day for sessions that last two minutes each.
- Floss your smile once a day.
- Visit us for preventive cleanings and checkups once every six months.
Say “Yes” To Fluoride
When you’re reaching for a new toothpaste at the drugstore, make sure your selection includes fluoride. This naturally occurring mineral promotes strong teeth and helps prevent tooth decay. How? It remineralizes your teeth, keeping your enamel from breaking down and a cavity from forming.
Schedule A Filling (If Necessary)
If you end up with a cavity, it’s not the end of the world. Fortunately, by visiting us twice a year, we can detect tooth decay the moment it begins. Rather than allowing the problem to progress, visit us right away for a dental filling, so we can remove the decay and restore the health of your tooth.
