At Santee Dentistry and Implants, we believe that the best treatment is prevention. With our all-encompassing preventative dentistry services, Dr. Alhamdi and Dr. Faris aim to keep your smile healthy. We want to save you from potential dental issues in the future, so our practice is founded on the principle of providing quality preventative care for patients of all ages.
Our Proactive Approach
Preventive dentistry is all about being proactive rather than reactive. This means routine check-ups, regular cleanings, and a host of other preventative measures that help detect potential problems before they become serious. At Santee Dentistry and Implants, we’ve made it our mission to help our patients understand the importance of these visits and the role they play in maintaining good oral health.
Our preventative approach starts with comprehensive check-ups. Dr. Alhamdi and Dr. Faris conduct thorough examinations to detect any signs of decay, gum disease, or other dental issues. These examinations include a review of your dental history, x-rays (if necessary), and a visual inspection of your teeth and gums.
At Santee Dentistry and Implants, we prioritize your overall well-being by integrating oral cancer screenings into our preventative care regimen. These screenings are quick and painless but play a crucial role in early detection, which can significantly increase the chances of successful treatment and recovery.
Regular professional cleanings are another crucial aspect of preventative dentistry. Even with good home care, plaque and tartar can still build up over time. Our hygienists gently remove this build-up from above and below the gumline, leaving your teeth clean and your mouth feeling fresh. Regular cleanings give your smile a boost and allow us to closely monitor your oral health.
We offer dental sealants and fluoride treatments to strengthen your teeth further and guard against decay. Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, preventing food and bacteria from getting stuck in the grooves. Fluoride treatments, on the other hand, strengthen your tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay.
