Arbour Dental Practice

One of the most important aspects of dentistry is to prevent dental disease. This is achieved by regular examinations with your dentist.

Both natural teeth and teeth with fillings or restorations need to be in a clean environment. At Arbour Dental we aim to help prevent cavities, preserve teeth that have restorations and manage the health of the gums.

At the initial visit a full examination is carried out - assessing teeth, gums, screening for oral cancer and any other pathology, establishing oral hygiene practices and regularity. We also include a dietary check to ensure that the intake of sugary foods is minimised.

Oral hygiene instructions are given including brushing technique and flossing regime, and reinforced in subsequent visits. We aim to educate patients of all ages to maintain a healthy oral environment.
