Preventative Dentistry

Sealants

Sealants are an effective preventative dental service designed to protect teeth from decay, especially in hard-to-reach molars and premolars. By applying a thin, protective coating, sealants block out bacteria and food particles that cause cavities. This simple treatment can significantly reduce the risk of tooth decay, particularly valuable for children and teenagers but equally beneficial for adults seeking to maintain optimal oral health.

Gingivitis & Gum Disease Treatment

Our preventative dental services include specialized treatments for gingivitis and gum disease, conditions that can significantly impact overall health if left untreated. Through routine deep cleanings and more intensive periodontal treatments as needed, we work to halt the progression of gum disease. Maintaining healthy gums not only supports your teeth, but also contributes to better cardiovascular health and diabetes management.

Mouth Guards (Sports & Night)

Ideal Dental offers customized mouth guards as part of our preventative dental services, providing protection for athletes and individuals who grind their teeth at night. Tailored to fit your teeth precisely, these guards help prevent injuries and conditions such as bruxism, which can lead to more serious dental issues if unchecked. Opting for a custom-fit guard ensures maximum comfort and effectiveness, safeguarding your teeth during physical activity and sleep.

Retainers

As a crucial aspect of our preventative dental services, retainers are used to maintain the alignment of teeth after orthodontic treatment. Wearing retainers as prescribed is essential to prevent the gradual shifting of teeth, preserving the benefits of your orthodontic investment. Regular check-ups allow us to ensure that your retainer fits well and continues to function effectively, supporting long-term dental alignment and health.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are a proactive measure to prevent cavities in both children and adults. By applying a protective coating to the chewing surfaces of your teeth, sealants block out food particles and bacteria that lead to decay. Ideal Dental uses the latest materials and techniques to ensure that your sealants are effectively applied and long-lasting.

Gingivitis & Gum Disease Treatment

Treating gum disease, such as gingivitis, in its early stages is crucial to prevent its progression to more severe conditions. Ideal Dental offers specialized periodontal treatments that clean deeply below the gum line to eliminate bacteria and restore gum health. Our personalized treatment plans are designed to combat gingivitis effectively and maintain healthy gums.

Mouth Guards (Sports & Night)

Custom mouth guards play a vital role in protecting your teeth and jaw during sports activities or from nighttime grinding (bruxism). Ideal Dental crafts personalized mouthguards that fit comfortably and offer superior protection, reducing the risk of sports injuries and preventing the wear and tear associated with teeth grinding.

Retainers

After orthodontic treatments, retainers are essential for maintaining the alignment of your teeth. Ideal Dental provides customized retainers designed to ensure that your teeth remain in their new position, safeguarding the results of your orthodontic investment.
