PREVENTATIVE DENTISTRY IN CHANDLER, AZ

Healthy Smile Maintenance

We have all heard from a young age that it is important to brush and floss our teeth twice a day. That is only one aspect of caring for the teeth and keeping them healthy. Preventative dental care also includes regular oral exams, professional cleanings, and routine X-rays, along with good lifestyle choices such as proper nutrition and hygiene habits.
Preventative dental care lowers the risk of developing cavities, gum disease, and other serious dental problems. It can also help reduce dental problems related to some chronic medical conditions such as diabetes. Oral health is also connected to the health of the entire body. The mouth is a breeding ground for harmful bacteria as well as the entry point to the digestive and respiratory tracts. Without proper oral hygiene, including preventative dentistry, secondary problems can develop, such as respiratory and heart disease. Preventative dentistry is available at Arizona Family Dental in Chandler and the surrounding area.
