What is preventative dentistry in Altrincham?

When you visit our dental surgery in Altrincham, our expert dentists will carry out a comprehensive examination of your teeth and gums, which could also include full or partial x-rays for a closer look at what’s happening under the surface. We also offer suggestions to help you improve your oral care and cleaning techniques at home where relevant and required. Our dental hygienists can provide scale and polish teeth cleaning services to help keep plaque and bacteria at bay.

Preventative dentistry treatments

Regular dental exams: Routine dental appointments are a crucial part of preventive dentistry in Altrincham. These check-ups help us discover and diagnose dental problems at a much earlier stage than if you leave them to become larger and more painful.

Professional teeth cleaning: Professional scale and polish teeth cleaning can get rid of tartar and plaque that normal brushing and flossing cannot always find. This helps stop cavities, decay and gum disease in their tracks.

Fluoride treatments: Fluoride treatments are aimed at strengthening your tooth enamel and protecting it from decay. The procedure is especially helpful for younger patients, but can be offered to adults as well.

X-rays: Taking x-ray pictures of all or part of your mouth helps us discover exactly  see what is happening underneath the surface of your gums and teeth. This can uncover such issues as broken fillings, bone loss, cavities, broken crowns, cysts and impacted teeth.

Gum disease treatment: If we do find gum disease during a regular check-up appointment, we can help stabilise or reverse its progress. Treatments for gum disease include scale and polish cleaning, a course of antibiotics and top tips for improving dental care at home.

Orthodontics for children: Children and young people sometimes need to have braces or other types of orthodontic treatments fitted in order to align their teeth and jaws correctly. Intervening earlier on in life  can help avoid more serious dental problems in adulthood.
