Preventative Care

Our Herndon dentists provide comprehensive preventive dental care to ensure healthy teeth and gums and a great smile for a lifetime. Regular check ups and professional dental cleanings are very important to ensure dental health, and our dentists’ extensive experience in dentistry is coupled with genuine concern for our patient's long term oral health and well being.

Why do I need preventive dental care?
We want all of our patients to know that the goal of preventive dental care is not to fix tooth decay after the fact, but to prevent it from occurring. Regular dental checkups are a more important aspect of oral hygiene care than most people realize. Even if you are diligent about brushing and flossing, you should visit our Herndon dental office at a minimum every six months for a check up and professional cleaning.

As part of routine cleanings and scheduled check ups, our dental team will work to clean away plaque and tartar from the surface of your teeth. If left untreated, this can build up, causing gum disease and other forms of tooth decay. Even if you take your time brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach places. Once your teeth have been cleaned in our Herndon dental office, they will be flossed and polished

After your teeth have been cleaned, your Herndon family dentist will examine your smile for signs of cavities and other problems which left untreated can lead to serious health problems.

It is important not to underestimate the importance of your regular preventive dental care to maintain healthy smiles, and our Herndon dental team will provide the quality scheduled care you need.
