Bass Lake Dental is a strong advocate of preventive dentistry that involves a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.
Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet. These practices are reinforced in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health by providing regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also important treatments that protect the teeth.
