Dental preventive care focuses on maintaining good oral health and preventing issues such as cavities, gum disease, and tooth decay. This includes regular checkups, professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar, fluoride treatments to strengthen teeth, and sealants to protect the chewing surfaces of back teeth. Consistent preventive care helps detect problems early and ensures a healthier smile, reducing the need for more extensive treatments in the future.
