In the field of dentistry, there are several types of care – preventative, restorative, and cosmetic. Simply stated, preventative care keeps your mouth healthy while restorative and cosmetic care fix problems that are causing damage to your oral health or the appearance of your smile. At Starbrite Dental, our team is skilled and experienced at providing all types of dental care. There’s no need to look for several dentists, we can help you with achieve a happy and healthy smile, and keep it that way.
Preventative Dental Care: Often the easiest path to a great smile is keeping your mouth healthy. While most of the preventative care happens at home with good brushing and flossing and a healthy diet, it’s critical to keep up with twice a year dental appointments. At these checkups, you’ll receive a thorough professional cleaning that removes plaque and bacteria from those areas of the mouth that simply cannot be reached at home. In addition, your dentist will have the opportunity to examine your mouth for any potential issues before they develop.
Restorative Dental Care: However, even with the best prevention, sometimes problems in the mouth do occur. A cavity or gum disease can develop when food particles remain on the teeth, an accident can lead to a tooth being knocked out, or a tooth can begin to throb in pain. When you have a dental problem, receiving treatment quickly is important. In most cases the sooner you receive treatment the less invasive and easier the fix will be.
Cosmetic Dental Care: In some cases, your teeth and mouth may function just fine but you feel self-conscious about the way your smile looks. Perhaps too many cups of coffee have left your teeth dark or stained. Or maybe your teeth began to shift many years after orthodontic treatment ended. Or perhaps a tooth that has always been misshaped is now causing you to feel uneasy. Whatever the case, the way you look often impacts the way you feel. If your smile isn’t everything you want it to be, you may wish to consider cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic bonding, veneers, and orthodontics are all dental services that are designed to help you feel more confident about your smile.
