A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Eric DMD provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Edentulism: Edentulism significantly impacts your ability to eat, speak, and overall health. Preventing it starts with good oral hygiene and addressing any dental issues promptly.
• Tooth Decay Caused by Acid Attack: Acidic substances constantly attack your enamel, causing decay. Regular dental visits and good oral hygiene are your best defense against this wear and tear.
• Orthodontic Disorders: Addressing orthodontic disorders early can prevent future dental problems like gum disease and jaw pain, improving your long-term oral health.
• Oral Hairy Leukoplakia: Oral hairy leukoplakia, a condition marked by white patches on the tongue, is often linked to weakened immunity and underscores the importance of proactive dental care for early detection and addressing underlying health issues.
• Canker Sore: Early detection of unusually large, painful, or persistent canker sores is crucial, as it could indicate a more serious underlying medical condition.
• Vincent's Disease: Vincent's disease can be a serious oral health issue, but proactive measures such as consistent brushing and flossing significantly decrease your risk of developing this painful infection.
• Tooth Pulp Inflammation: Regular dental visits, including professional cleanings, help identify and treat early signs of tooth pulp inflammation, protecting your overall oral health and well-being.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Preventive Dental care with Dr. Eric DMD:

How often should I visit the dentist for a check-up and cleaning?

At Dr. Eric DMD, we recommend seeing a dentist and dental hygienist every six months for a check-up and cleaning. This helps prevent tartar buildup, catch cavities early, and screen for gum disease and oral cancer. Regular visits are a critical preventive step in maintaining a healthy smile.

Why are routine dental cleanings so important for prevention?

Even with excellent brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar that only a professional cleaning can remove. This is crucial for preventing cavities and, more importantly, gum disease, which is linked to other health problems like heart disease.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Oral health is intrinsically linked to overall health. Chronic gum inflammation (periodontitis) is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care is essential for maintaining optimal body health.

What are dental sealants, and who should get them?

Dental sealants are a thin, protective plastic coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth. They are a powerful preventive tool, primarily for children and teenagers, that seal out food and plaque to prevent cavities from forming in the deep grooves of the teeth.

How can I whiten my teeth safely?

The safest and most effective way to whiten your teeth is under professional supervision. Dr. Eric DMD can assess your oral health to ensure you're a good candidate and offer professional-grade treatments, like custom trays or in-office procedures, for better and safer results than over-the-counter products.

What is the difference between gingivitis and periodontitis?

Gingivitis is an early, reversible stage of gum disease characterized by red, swollen gums that may bleed easily. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more serious stage where the bone supporting your teeth is damaged, potentially leading to tooth loss.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are the modern gold standard for replacing missing teeth. They are titanium posts that act like artificial tooth roots, which are then topped with a natural-looking crown. This helps prevent bone loss and preserves the health of surrounding teeth.

What are veneers and how are they different from crowns?

Veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of teeth to improve their appearance. Crowns, on the other hand, are caps that cover the entire tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength after significant damage or decay.
