Preventive Dentistry in Pickering – Protecting Your Smile Keeping Your Teeth Healthy For Life!
At Pickering Smile Centre, we believe that healthy teeth and gums are the foundation of a beautiful smile. Did you know that over half of the population has some form of gum disease? Left untreated, it can lead to serious health complications—including an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, alzheimers, pregnancy problems, and respiratory conditions.
Our approach to preventive dentistry is designed to detect and address issues early, ensuring lifelong oral health. We want to help every one of our patients keep their teeth for life. Regular preventive care helps to greatly reduce the risk of more complicated dental treatments in the future.
Why Does Preventive Dentistry Matter?
Catching problems early can prevent the need for more invasive treatments, and prevention is much less costly than restoration.
Regular cleanings at the dental office help to eliminate harmful bacteria, preventing infections and reducing bleeding gums.
Early detection and intervention ensure fewer and shorter restorative treatments.
Poor oral health has been linked to many health concerns such as heart disease, diabetes, alzheimers, and pregnancy complications.
Healthy teeth and gums contribute to fresh breath and a bright, confident smile.
Each Smile Centre patient receives a personalized prevention plan based on their goals.
