Preventive Treatments

Mesa, Arizona

At Lake Vista Dentistry, we emphasize the importance of preventive dental care as the cornerstone of maintaining excellent oral health and overall wellness. We are pleased to offer comprehensive preventive services to lower your risk of dental disease and maintain healthy smiles that last a lifetime. As the old saying goes, "An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure."

What Are Preventive Treatments Offered at Lake Vista Dentistry?

The following are some of the preventive treatments we offer right here at our Mesa practice:

  • Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride, touted as "nature's cavity fighter," helps strengthen your tooth enamel, lowering the risk of tooth decay. It also helps remineralize the teeth, which not only prevents cavities but can also reverse early decay.
  • Dental Sealants: The back teeth (molars) have pits and crevices on their chewing surfaces, which is one reason why they are prone to decay. Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings we apply to these tooth surfaces, essentially sealing out plaque, bacteria, and food debris, significantly lowering the risk of tooth decay.
  • Nano-Hydroxyapatite (n-Ha): For those wanting an alternative to fluoride, nano-hydroxyapatite, which is the main component of dental enamel, offers an excellent solution. The powerful compound is known for its effectiveness in reducing sensitivity and remineralizing teeth, which not only lowers the risk of tooth decay but also helps reverse early decay.
  • Perio Protect: Perio Protect is a non-invasive gum treatment and prevention solution that uses custom-fitted trays to deliver a dentist-prescribed gel directly to the periodontal pockets where toothbrushes, dental floss, and mouthwash cannot reach. Perio Protect helps improve oral flora, reduce inflammation, eliminate harmful bacteria, and promote overall gum health.

What Are the Benefits of Preventive Dental Care?

  • Customized Care: Our preventive services are tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you maintain long-term healthy smiles.
  • Better Health: Aside from boosting your oral health, research shows that a healthy mouth can lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other serious health concerns.
  • Beautiful Smiles:Maintaining healthy teeth and gums will ensure you enjoy a beautiful, confident smile for years to come.
  • Cost-Saving:Preventive care is more cost-effective than dealing with dental problems and requiring more expensive and extensive treatments down the road.
