General and preventive dentistry in Avondale are about your oral health, but they represent different avenues of care.
General dentistry is maintenance, meaning the treatments you need to reverse or repair an oral health issue. This can mean tooth-coloured fillings to treat dental decay, root canal therapy to clear tooth infections, and even tooth replacement when teeth are missing. General dentistry also considers your periodontal health.
Preventive dentistry helps prevent oral health conditions like cavities, root infections, and gum disease. Prevention is about visiting your dentist on schedule for teeth cleans and dental check-ups. It is also about keeping your teeth and gums healthy through regular brushing and flossing. Ideally, good prevention means fewer visits for general maintenance.
In other words, regular dental care and excellent oral hygiene may lower your risks for tooth decay, oral infections, and gum disease.
