Protective Dentistry

It is necessary to take some precautions to avoid any dental or oral health deterioration. Patients complete the first stage of preventive applications by brushing their teeth, using dental floss and gargling with mouthwash. In offices, some applications help to keep teeth healthy. Fissure sealants: The pits called fissures on the chewing surfaces of the molars are filled with thin viscous fluid fillings to prevent tooth decays. This process can be repeated every few years. Protective gels: Protective gels applied to the tooth surfaces provide protection against caries for 4-6 months.
